    Hired a Ford Focus in Sept 09 from Centauro. We were picked up at Malaga Airport in a minibus and taken to their office 5 mins away. The staff were polite and friendly, the car was in very good condition and almost new. Best of all it was a diesel and very economical indeed. We had hired it through Bravo Car Hire who gave us a discounted extra insurance as we hired for three weeks. As we had a slight bump we were glad we took this out and there was no problem when we returned it. Would use this company again

    No choice of fuel charge options given at time of pick-up(return empty), Centauro Car was booked through Holiday Autos with zero xs option, but I was coaxed into accepting a further 21Eu ins charge at pick-up for "not covered" underside, tyres and windscreen. I declined. Also had to leave a 300Eu deposit in form of a CC authorisation, which was immediately deducted from my CC, am struggling to get it refunded. The car was dirty out and in at pick-up. Existing damage was only pointed out on the c ...

    I was appaled by Centauro's practices even by hire car company standards; I would be embarrassed to be a representative of this company. From the off - the website I booked through said the price I was paying included a £0 XS - I arrived at the office to find I had to pay an additional 21 euros because the alledged £0 XS didn't include windscreen and tyres....not much of a £0XS then really. Secondly I was then informed that I would be charged over 60 euros for the full tank o ...

    Centauro is a complete rip off - they charged us extra when we were late for pick up because our flight was late. Then they gave a faulty car - it was leaking oil, which means we had to drive back 100km to exchange cars. They made us fuel it again. When we came back we found they charged us £300 extra because the car was leaking fuel! Absolute rip off! Throughout the experience we were treated like cattle, they've no idea what good service means. Under no circumstances use this company!

    Requested Micra or Clio but only received 2 door Ka, a bit small but otherwise ok. Centauro is a good company to deal with.

    Car was in poor condition even though it was pretty new. Damage to wheel arch liner on the front meant that brake cables were loose and the air con did not work well. Staff did not want to know when I dropped the car back with them. Service was take it or leave it and there were plenty of unhappy punters complaining about all sorts at the pick up office. For the sake of saving a few quid, it was simply not worth it. Will not use Centauro again.

    Booked online with confirmation for Majorca Airport but when I arrived, Centauro refused to accept my hire because I did not have an International Drivers Licence.

    Service staff were rude and uncompromising. I picked up a car at Hertz next door with no bother, but got charged a lot more.

    Did lots of research before choosing Centauro. I paid for the extra insurance which was only about Eur 50 but covered for everything, and with no excess (I've read about huge excess charges). There were no nasty surprises either with the booking, the car or on our return when I checked the credit card. Also when I sent an email with a question they replied promptly.

    Used Centauro again in June 2009. This time at Malaga Airport. Their site is 3 minutes drive from the airport via courtesy mini bus.As last year very efficient. Car was upgrade to an excellent, fairly new, Peugeot 207 Diesel which was a joy to drive.

    Good news - last year I grumbled that they were giving you the tank filled up including an admin charge and returning to them, it as near empty as possible. Now you have the choice of that or filling it up before you return the car and Centauro w ...

    Did a lot of web research for suitable hire companies and chose Centauro at Murcia Airport . They have a counter within the airport. Staff were friendly and courteous. The paperwork took maybe 10 minutes to sort out. The car a Fiesta was very new and was a joy to drive. Return could not have been simpler.
    Unfortunately Centauro seem to operate the same policy as other operators of charging for filling your tank up and the customer has to bring it back empty. They would have a full 10 in not for ...

    Clean newish car. Easy to arrange through website. Centauro have moved from Malaga airport to a new large site off the airport. This is actually good as they run a shuttle bus every 10-15 minutes, with a driver to meet you. They have a large air conditioned office so you are not stuck downstairs in a huge queue at the airport. They also have a large compound full of their cars just off the main A7 coastal route so you can get on the A7 straight away rather than start your holiday by having to dr ...
