??? If you have found companies that will accept you (as you seem to be saying) what's the problem?

Try ArgusRentals. They say from age 18, but will certainly charge a hefty premium over the normal rates.

You have done well to " own " a Villa in Spain at age 20.

With your very limited driving experience, are you sure you could safely cope with Spanish drivers/ roads?

Just a my thoughts on the situation.;)

Well yes - there isn't a universal rule. Car hire companies are independent businesses. They have different policies about who they will hire to. It's no more realistic to think they are all the same in this respect than to think they all charge the same price. If you have found one that will hire to you (which I admit is slightly unusual) then you are in luck - problem solved. Go for it.

I assume the 'we' refers to the family?

As for driving in Spain, I would suggest it's easier than in the UK!!! Less traffic, better roads, cheaper fuel, etc.

The worst problems I find are avoiding the Brits!

Sorry I'm not following you - you've said you've found some companies that will rent to 20 year olds - why not use one of them? If you can't choose then use a pin or choose the cheapest or post their NAMES here so that someone can comment on how good they are.

This thread is going around in circles, like Spaniards on their 'glorietas'!
