    OK Marky, well I paid for the tyre damage waiver and should have saved my money. I did clout a pavement, all that car to my right, narrow road etc. but alas the tyres didnt pop !! A lot of the roads near where we stayed were very poor, no Tarmac just dirt tracks so thought it worth buying, then I read the small print and guess what - Yes no cover for damage occuring on non made up roads so , yes it was pretty poor value really.

    Just saved £39 using D005297 for Cape Town,South Africa in February. Checked insurance before and after and it is the same. Thanks Mr Warren!

    The code worked for us on hols too and turned AVIS from very expensive to very competitive.

    Actually got a free upgrade too!

    Had to repair the car after a bit of impromptu off-roading but fortunately it looked just about OK. They shouldn't really supply Citroen C2 VTRs with low front spoilers when the roads are awful!

    Worked for me too, arrived back today, no problems :-)
  • Thank you, Mr Warren !! I owe you a virtual pint! :beer:

    Just booked Audi A4 in mid August with Avis for 8 days picking up in Hamburg using your AWD discount codes.
    Before reading your post, the best deal I could get after thorough searching was £257 via Eurocar online.
    Avis' 'normal' price, without the code would have been £347 which isnt very competative.
    Imagine my delight when the price came in at £198 !!! :j :D :T :rotfl:
    Once again, very many thx

    Tried booking and got message that cdw code not valid. Moved up one number to D005298 and it seems to have done the trick!

    It was around £50 so well pleased, and the pick up at the airport went very smoothly!
