well brexit might have an impact on your rental there.

when you actually rent, Brexit will probably have happened, deal or no deal, and there is no way we can foresee what it will do the the sterling pound, and how economy will be affected

still you'll need to pay in USD, and you may realise that it costs you substantially more

what you may have missed here, is that the price in euros is just an indication based on today's exchange rate.
as it's a pay on arrival rental, you'll pay in USD and it will not cost what you see today in euros, it will cost what it says in Dollars, and that will translate into GBP on the day you pick up the car, whatever the USD->GBP exchange rate is at that time

bottomline, the price you see now in euros don't mean a thing. What matters is the price in USD (also shown on the site) and what it will really cost in GBP when you collect, maybe months from now, and post-brexit
