It took 3 hours from my pick up time to get a car. It was also a much smaller car than the one i booked. They say they can only guarantee the class of car, but the variation in size is crazy within classes. We couldnt fit bags in the boot (booked a 3 capacity boot and got a 1). Drove 4 hours with suitcases on laps.Reviewed 6 Oct 2026

It was a very easy experience obtaining the car and the drop off. The only negative was that there was some small bits of trash in the cup holder and side pocket, so obviously it wasn't cleaned between users but overall it was a good experienceReviewed 5 Oct 2026
