Folks,

Looks like my Scooby is sold http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif. Need to rent a car for 10 days before I fly the coop.

Anyone know of where I can get an excellent deal, Milton Keynes / Bedford areas?

thanks

Suresh

Thanks for the replies Simons

Have tried Thrifty, but they won't do one way rental! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/confused.gif Europcar seems a reasonable bet: £346 all inclusive for a 2.0 Mondeo / 11 days. They will deliver the car to me on campus and I can drop it at Luton airport on my way out.cheers

Alternatively... I believe Saab and Audi both offer 24 hour test drives. Find 8 more companies that do this, and you've got your 10 days of motoring for free... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

LOL. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Wonder if there are 10 Scooby dealers in the area who would do the same!

Try booking on

Suresh 06 September 2000 11:54 PM

Lan Cat,
Just went and tried them. Base rate of £144 for an Astra looks attractive, but when CDW and theft insurance are added, it jumps up to £374. Corsa base rate is £133 for same period http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/confused.gif

Ta anyway

I didn't bother with the cdw/theft options. Maybe that's why it worked out ok for me.

Good luck with the search.
