Took a Corsa 1.2 out on hire on Saturday (2010 Plate 1000 Miles on the clock). Booked it on the internet with ease. Just needed to show driving license (both parts) and the debit card I booked it with they did the rest when picking it up. No hidden extras in the charging policy but they do try and add insurance excess waiver. I declined this as I only had the car for a few days and was parking off road. I think the insurance claim excess was £500 for any damage.
The car was spot on, it felt brand new, brakes tyres, steering all excellent. No damage on it at all when I picked it up. Apart from some scratches on the passenger door.
Gave it a clean just in case on the way back. But they were no trouble at all. They just gave it a quick check over (they said they dont mind small scratches that can be polished out), and got inside to check the fuel levels. They run a full to full fuel policy. So you take the car out on a full tank, and they expect the tank to be full on return so else they charge you £115.
Beware they close at 1pm on saturday despite taking bookings at 1pm.
Returned the car to the small car park in front of the office in the photo. read more
