I was hoping to ask Malagabob his thoughts re Centauro car hire through zest but the previous topic has been closed hence the new. Has anyone else used or has heard feedback on Centauro? Just trying to get an idea before finalising a booking.

Malagabob quote:
Thanks for your views. I have decided to give Centauro a go. ( they do fair fuel also ) Mainly because they were the cheapest plus as they are off airport I won't be charged the 15€, saving me close to 35€.
Having had many times experience of picking up from P4, and waying up how long it's taken to be seen, do paperwork, shown to car. I think the meet and greet shuttle to compound would be the same if not less.
I will do a report after I return.

Bob, did you get to use Centauro?
