Terms and Conditions

Deposit/PreAuthorisation

We will require a deposit of 100€ on all rentals. The deposit can be taken by cash or a credit/debit card in the form of a pre-authoristation, A pre-authorisation is the method by which a deposit amount is blocked rather than transacted as a sale. The money must be available in the account but will not leave it. The amount will not be available to the account holder until released by their bank. The period until the funds are released is usually between 5 and 15 days but can be longer depending on the type of card and country of issue. This deposit is only a return of vehicle deposit, it does not act as the full excess cover, for any damage caused to any of the vehicles during the rental period the renter will be liable to the costs of that particular repair, the maximum charged is 300€ (our full excess charge)

 

Fuel

Vehicles are supplied on a like for like basis meaning the vehicle should be returned with the same level of fuel supplied. The level of fuel supplied is not guaranteed but will normally be 1/4 a tank. Fuel is at the hirers expense. Hirers are recommended to return the car with the same fuel to avoid charges.

 

Vehicle condition and Other Information.

Condition: Vehicles must be returned to the location/drop off point in the same condition as when it was picked up/delivered. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the vehicle is thoroughly checked prior to taking custody of the vehicle.
The client accepts responsibility for taking due care and attention of the vehicle. Failure to do so and loss or damage to the interior of the vehicle is deemed negligent and nullifies the insurance, the excess and any waivers taken. The client becomes responsible for all costs incurred.

Whilst in charge of the vehicle the client accepts responsibility for maintaining the roadworthiness of the vehicle and agrees to take remedial action to avoid unnecessary cost/damage. This will include maintaining oil levels, tire pressures and other common sense actions to maintain the vehicle. Costs will generally be covered if a receipt is provided.

Normal wear and tear is acceptable however excessive staining/damage (internal and external) will be charged for at our valet rates (for cleaning) and at the prevailing rate for damage repair.
