Alamo Brits are having a laugh. £770.78 for a Standard SUV (July/August dates for 14 days) whereas the same thing through Virgin Holidays is £449.54 !

Funnily (or weirdly), I never have any luck with VH/VA for car rental - they are always more expensive than Alamo Brits for me, sometimes a lot more expensive: Right now £40 more expensive for 15 days in May than what Alamo Brits is at the moment though both considerably more than I booked for back in November.
Currently for our Nov/Dec trip VH wants £597 for 17 days for a full size car, with Alamo Brits quoting £418.

I'm more familiar with the price of a full-size car, where personally I consider anything below £22/day a great price, £22-£24/day a good price and £24-£26/day 'acceptable'.
For our 15 days in May we need a standard SUV, which we got with Alamo Brits at £22.60/day - which I consider a great price. At the moment Alamo Brits comes in at £24.59/day for a full-size car for 17 days in November/December. I don't think it's too bad a price, but also don't think it's a great price. If I tack a car rental on to our flight/hotel booking via BA they quote me £368 for a full size car with Avis. At £21.65/day I think it's a great offer, the only reason I'm hesitating is (1) it's non-refundable so locks me in and (2) it has to be paid in full. (The multi-booking 'loophole' with BA doesn't save me enough to make having to switch cars worthwhile.)

Alamo Brits is quoting almost £300 more than what I'm paying with Alamo through Discount Florida Car Hire for 15 nights in July for an intermediate SUV. I only booked the car about 10 days ago.
