Advice On Hiring Cars Whilst On Holiday
Tuesday, 13. July 2010
Just off on holiday abroad? Well if you are thinking of hiring a car you should arrange it before you leave according to Holiday Autos. They are reporting an increase of around £100 per week in some resorts as the rental companies attempt to offset the effects of the recession onto holidaying Brits. For example a 7 day hire in say Palma Majorca.now costs an average of £247 compared to £142 12 months ago and £93 in 2008. The hire car will cost even more if you wait till you arrive at your destination. One of the other problems faced by the rental companies is lack of borrowing power so many have been unable to replace some cars that have had to be returned reducing their fleet size and forcing up rates. Best to shop around and get the best rates before you leave or I suppose you could walk or take public transport? OK bad idea. Have you been booking a hire car and seen rates increase, if so please let me know? By Graham Hill
