Post your Car Hire Pictures - *Pictures only Please*
We need your help Dibbers
I have noticed a lot of threads lately that are asking what size of car do we need, what make of car have you hired etc etc. So could I ask Dibbers that are going on holiday to take pictures of their hire cars. Something along the lines of this:- Place you picked the car up from:- Catergory of car hired:- Make of car you got:- Hire car company used:- Picture 1 Front of the car Picture 2 inside of the car Picture 3 boot/trunk of the car Also it would be good if you could take a photo with all the luggage packed, like a before and after. I know I am asking alot, but it would help members in choosing the right car for their trip. Thank you.

Car Hire - MCO Sept 14
Firstly I have to say that I am very impressed with Alamo. I originally chose a Chevy Captiva but complained via email to Alamo as there was no remote key fob to lock the car and told them that it was causing me a problem to find my car at the parks on my return (which it wasn't!). Anyway received an email back from Yaniris Hernandez and he told me to bring the car back to the airport and he would give me a free upgrade from Int SUV to a Standard SUV and I would have a full tank of petrol. The petrol in the Chevy was half full but I didn't get charged for it! I spoke to a very nice guy on my return to Alamo and I asked him for some advice as to which car had the best spec and he thought for a bit then said, just take the Dodge Durango. Well what can I say this is the best car that I have ever had from Alamo, leather interior, touch screen for the sat nav, reverse screen etc and a whopping 3.6L V6! It was a 7 seater and the seats nearest the back went down so plenty of room for 4/5 suitcases no problems and still 3 seats in the back to spare. The pictures speak for themselves. I would highly recommend this vehicle!
Place you picked the car up from: MCO Catergory of car hired: Originally Mid SUV but this free upgrade to Standard SUV Make of car you got: Dodge Durango (Limited) Hire car company used:- Alamo Date of hire: 26/09/2014

October '14 car hire
Place you picked car up from: Alamo MCO
Car category booked: Int. SUV Make of car you got: Chevrolet Captiva Company hired from: USrentacar Date of hire: 7th - 21st October 2014 Booked a Int.SUV with Alamo through USrentacar for two weeks with the 'Young Drivers Package'. Was an ideal booking for us as there was four of us on the trip but arrived on separate days so boot only needed to take two cases and handluggage. We arrived on time but because their was another four flights arriving at the same time took almost two hours to get to garage to pick up car. By which point was only a choice of two left, a Nissan Rouge and Chevrolet Captiva. Picked the Captiva and had no problems with it, done everything we could've asked from it and only needed a full tank filled again once. |

Collected from - ORLANDO INTERNATIONAL
Hire Company - Alamo via uscarhire Class - FFAR Car received - 2014 Chevvy Tahoe LT When - Sept 2014 The most amazing car. Even had built in Sat Nav. Lovely drive, (so much so, OH didn't even get a look in ) power and smoothness oozed from this car. Lots of room and the kids weren't even crammed in when the back seats were down. Collected with full tank and put $70 in at the end of the first week. Think we did about 700 miles in total. With the 6 & 7th Folded down
