This info is mainly directed to those that prefer or have to use this company. I can't say what is comparison to other companies.

I just saved £100 on my deal in Spain [over 2 weeks] comparing UK price and AU price, and at this specific location it was cheapest car in it's class.

When it comes to other locations... I have checked 2 other ones and average saving should be like 20GBP over 2 weeks.

    It will not work for everyone I guess :)

    In below example it is like 33% savings on BMW [divide dollar price by 2 to get roughly £ value]

    Quoting for 14 days instead of 13 can save a lot of pounds too

    Do these prices actually include the holiday?

    If not, then this is surely better in the car hire forum!

    Just booked a week hire using hertz.com.au for my Menorca holiday, it's almost 3x cheaper than the UK sit. Is this really legit? It has free cancellation too.
  • Opel Corsa for 11 days from Tenerife South at the end of this month.

    hertz.au = €202
    Rentalcars.com = €75.

    Go figure.

    Same company or a company that will charge upfront for fuel and just about everything else?
    I don't know what it is you expect us to "go figure".... or is that just a silly Americanisation?
