    These days you never know with hire companies, they could fit "Ditch Finder xl"'s in a bid to get more accidents and more money from the inevitable repairs.

    It's dog eat dog out there on the trailing edge of this recession :(

    Or they may just not care.

    BTW "trailing edge"? You're an optimist aren't you? If Spain goes down the tube we're all heading for a second crash IMO.

    Big hire firms don't own their fleets though so surely the money they lose when they return their lease vehicles with some dodgy repairs is more than what they make out of any accident repair backhanders ;)

    Plus these "Ditchfinder XLs" handled some typical rental van treatment - rental vehicles being exempt from speed limits and having no limit to their handling, of course.
