    When I rent a car I expect it to be in at least as good condition as mine at home. It might be smaller and less powerful but they're normally much newer than my own cars. Quite honestly our rental car was a dog. Over 80k on the clock, engine service light on, bits missing, so many dents I couldn't list them and air conditioning which worked only 50% of the time. I suspect the air conditioning problem was just a loose belt. I doubt it had been serviced for years. However that's not my real gripe - I booked the car through CarDelMar and paid extra for their super duper insurance. Why did I bother? Each year there's a new scam and this year's was;

    "you'll want our admin' insurance cover at 5 Euros per day? If you don't have it you're liable for 1500 Euros". That would have been 70 Euros on our car hire or 27% of out hire car costs.

    When will these car hire companies learn?

    Travellers want to hire the cars, they want a fixed price with all insurance included. No extras for admin insurance, windscreen cover, tyres or any anything else.

    Elite Car Hire - NO THANKS
    CarDelMar - NO THANKS

    Next time I'll book only direct with the company in the pick up destination and I'll want it in writing before I pay that there are no possible extras.

    Elite Rent-a-Car don't even have cars they offer on their website! I was given some old & well worn rumbler (10 year old Megane) in place of the Grande Punto I've booked - the Heraklion Airport team seemed very dodgy - not igniting a slightest spark of trust in me, and totally not caring if I take the car from them or from someone else when I started to complain at the very start (the truth is, at 5AM you haven't got much choice).
    The Car was a nightmare - problems with starting the engine (some ...

    Unsatisfactory service and would not recommend. Our first car, delivered on time to a hotel in Heraklion, was in very poor condition. A convertible Suzuki Jimny, it was missing the back cover for the car and the removable roof was broken on one side, a real problem when driving on main roads. As we had no back cover and were travelling west in Crete with all our luggage, it meant we could not leave the car at any point as there was no way of keeping our belongings secure, preventing us from vis ...

    It seemed a great deal at first, though the car was most definitely now new, and with no front grille, it wasn't a looker either - rusty scratches on the front, dents all round it etc etc.

    We discovered the air conditioning didn't work - and although they were fine about it when we rang up and told them, as we were by then using the car to travel round in, exchange wasn't an option. I really do not believe they didn't know it wasn't working - their rep had to drive it 40 km to drop it off for ...

    The Elite Car Hire Crete agency in Crete made transportation on the island easy for me and my friends. The staff of the agency were very helpful and provided useful information and suggestions. I hired an off road vehicle and was completely satisfied with it. Elite car hire Crete just made my stay on the island better with their services.
