Is it possible to hire a car from Faro airport that doesn't involve the large excess attached? ------------- The sun, the food, the wine , the people, why did I ever leave! |

Yes, I use http://www.drive4fun.info/ no problem with excesses - all included. They also make it easy to use the toll roads with a pre-paid transponder. You also pay on collection, so no risk of losing your money online etc.

| I bought an annual Excess insurance - only cost £40 and covers excess anywhere in Europe. This makes it easier than having to find just low excess car hire companies |

Agreed, and you can even choose Drive4Fun too. It will be better value than booking direct. ------------- Colin |

Like RichardK I also purchased an annual Excess policy, as I hire cars quite a lot each year. But you can also buy it for one off trips. I used Reduce My Excess. I also use a cash back website when buying online, so I received approx 8% cash back by going via www.topcashback.co.uk first.

Have checked Avis prices before but found them higher than others. Had another look day before yesterday small car 7 days rental £60. Had no hesitation booking. Got my rental voucher stating £60. But crossed my mind a few hours after, If it's too good to be true....... Checked again with same details £108. Still a bit dubious I got a car for that price. Was it a glitch in the system. ------------- Never put off something that you could do today |
