Based on 293 reviews analysed · Last updated 13 November 2026 · How scores work

The short version

Based on 293 Google reviews from the last four months after exclusions (232 with text), travellers rate this desk very highly for no deposit, little upselling, fair all-in prices and quick pick-up and return, and web sources, including a 2026 Which? survey, broadly agree. The main weak points are budget cars that are sometimes older, high-mileage or poorly maintained, with several recent reports of worn tyres or steering problems, plus cars handed over with a partial tank and no condition check at pick-up or return. A cluster of complaints about a lack of replacement cars after an accident is counted once, and the review period covers only about four months.

What travellers flag

Red flags (4)

Several reviews from the last three months describe cars with worn tyres, steering play or poor alignment, or other faults such as no A/C or a warning light; some travellers called the cars unsafe to drive at normal speeds.
Several recent reviews say the car was handed over with only a quarter or half tank, and one traveller complains that extra fuel left in the tank is not refunded on return.
Several reviews say there is no staff check of the car at pick-up or return, so there is no joint condition record; travellers who want protection should photograph the car themselves.
The cars are budget-grade: reviewers mention 55,000-70,000 km on the odometer, low engine power on hills and missing features such as phone connectivity or sensors.
