Like everyone else, I was slightly worried due to the negative reviews, but everything went smooth and I even received a phone call earlier in the day to confirm the age of a child for the car seat. My only reservation was that we picked the car up at midnight and were told to take pictures of any damage since nobody is at the car, but it was in the dark, covered with rain and almost impossible to see the damage on the car, never mind take photos, which did leave me feeling slightly uneasy, particularly due to the very thorough inspection done on arrival.

After reading reviews I was a little bit worried, but it all went smoothly. Person at the counter was pleasant and informative, not pushy which is nice for a chance. I have bought upfront fuel witch came with slight car upgrade, fuel was slightly more expensive then at the pump, but I have got better car, so not complaining. Car was clean and tidy all in good condition.
