Premium suv



Thrifty via UScar hire. 5/7 seater premium SUV (price similar to standard suv via other providers)

Special edition model, 27k, ideal for offloading and towing apparently.

Lovely high up driving position.

This is a Nissan Altima with 21000 on the Clock.. not bad for a ‘Compact’ booking.

£485 for a 8 day booking , pick up from Avis at International Market, Waikiki Beach and return to same.

Thankyou Andy at DFCH!

Place you picked up car from: MCO B terminal garage
Category of car booked: group S Chevy Traverse or similar
Make of car you got : Buick Enclave
Hire company used: Avis through BA

had the Avis app and had linked my booking so knew what car I had and the bay number though it didn’t say which terminal to go to so took chance with terminal B and I was correct my name was on the board there, I actually was given a Chevy Traverse at first it looked fine but then noticed how dirty it was on outside inside was spotless however. I started it up to leave and the engine oil light wouldn’t go off ( it was sitting at 7300 miles) I went back to the preferred guy and asked to change explaining why. At first the guy just said it would be fine but I stood my ground and stated that wasn’t acceptable , he said ok o will change it for you but you won’t get a new car I said well there is s Buick enclave over there I will take that and he said yeh that’s fine, new paperwork sorted I sent to car again it was dirty on inside but clean on inside it’s done 23000 miles but it’s a good drive has all the bells and whistles you could want.

Was initially given a Infiniti q50 which was terrible with broken steering. Then replaced with below so I would say good result.

20k on the clock. Very good car, loads of space normally but had to wedge two suitcases in between the third row and second row of seats (possible because of two small kids not taking up leg room) and another case in between the two seats in the second row. Only one case fits in the boot with all seats upright. Something to consider if you have 6+ people and several cases. Alamo were great as usual although not much choice and was originally offered a Nissan Armada which I refused.

Wee free upgrade at Melbourne - gave us choice of 3 cars but we didn't know what any were and the girl recommended Dodge as plenty of room ! Just under 3000 miles on clock.
