Beware Economy car size ALAMO !

**Stitchesmumanddad** · 18 Jan 22, 11:32 PM

As its just me, I booked an economy car with Virgin for Alamo for use before my cruise and another booking for after my cruise. Both times I was given a Nissan Spark.

OMG - how SMALL is that car. I could literally get one suitcase in the tiny tiny boot, and it was two door ! Ive never seen two door cars in the US before. No way could two people happily use this car let alone a family. Alamo are certainly saving costs with increased prices.

Im off to Los Angeles next month, and Ive changed my ressie for that from economy to intermediate, as no way could I sit in LA traffic in that tin can of a car lol

Heres a piccie - red car

We had a spark once as well, it was small and I drive a a Fiat 500 ! If i remember right it didn't have central locking either. Luckily it was just a weeks hire so we only had one case. it was reaaaallly hard to find in the parking lot though as it was so small.

That�s why they call them economy I suppose.
