Try ringing the big 3, and see what they can do,

TBH, they only really deal with short term stuff - 2-21 days, as thts really what people want

Why do you want a new car for 2 months?......??

Try Thrifty, and look at their flexible long term rental option.

I've just leased a new astra from them for a month while I wait for a new car.

You have to insure it yourself, but the cost is half that of renting one for the same period. ie has saved me £400 per month.

I've always used Enterprise for the last few years, you will be limited to the cheaper end of the vehicle market though, Corsa, Astra, Mondeo, Zafira, Vectra, Insignia etc.
