Car Hire

I'm off to Ireland to see an aunt for a couple of days; when booking my flight and my car, I came across this intriguing page on the Hertz car rental site.
Notice anything?

The Alfa Romeo costs less than the Nissan Micra!

  1. Not when you include the cost of the ticket. Have a good time, unless you have other plans. :-D

  3. Yes, but can you imagine paying £90 a day for a Nissan Micra?

  4. The cars with automatic transmission have the higher prices - perhaps people are lazy about changing gear?

    Beware of the small print. A friend and I hired a car for two days back in February to go to a funeral in Co. Kerry. There were a host of additional charges added which do not appear up front when you make your booking.

  5. They always rip you off if you drive an automatic. I can't think why there is such a premium on them.
