Rent a sat nav separately as all the rental companies do is give you some clunky old thing in a bag for a ton of money!
Thankyou!
Not looking to book yet, just planning for next year. Usually book a package with virgin but had a look at prices and nearly fainted!
Thinking about booking separately and the car was the bit I didn’t understand, so thanks!

I’m all about low maintenance, simpler the better

Sarah. I was a Carpenter by trade. Measure twice cut once.

For cars - research all week, book once!

Then re check prices every day and keep getting refunds as the price drops. The money is better in your pocket than theirs. Show no loyalty as they don't.

Sorry to jump on this, but when you say re check prices and get refunds. Do you re book, or contact Auto Europe and ask them to lower the price?

We can't book our car hire yet as going next year, but I want to know the best tips for when we do book!

Hi. With Auto Europe you just log in so you can see your booking. Then you click on amend and go from there. So you can either get a refund or conversely you could go for an upgrade and pay more. The choice is yours.
Takes 5 mins, good system.
