Easter car hire
« on: January 22, 2013, 23:32:45 PM »
I am looking at car hire in Turkey for the Easter period. I was shocked to find I could hire a small car (fiesta/Clio) for £97 for 9 days.
I have never seen car hire this cheap.
You can find this on http://cars.atlaschoice.com/vehicles if anyone is interested.

Not as ridiculous as the Algarve, they are advertising £3 per day, how can they make money at that price. It must cost more in the wages of the delivery driver.

One thing that does worry me about cheap car hire is whether they quote cheap prices then make their money by claiming damage has occurred to the vehicle when you return (when it hasn't).

Yes I must admit it is a bit of a worry but our usual hire company we use is almost twice the price so I thought i'd give it a go.
Economy Car rentals are just the agent. The paperwork was sent through this morning and the hire company is ERBOYCAR Rent a Car whoever they are?

If anyone sees a couple thumbing a lift at Dalaman airport on 30th April it may be me. :-[
