I just tried holiday autos (part of lastminute.com) www.holidayautos.co.uk/
for 4 weeks (can be cheaper to hire in chunks of whole weeks or months) mid-Dec to mid-Jan
Birmingham Airport UK
Ford Focus(or similar)Compact 4dr £639.53
cancellation waiver protection (CWP) £26.71
total damage excess waiver (TDEW) £161.50 (trust me, you really do need this to avoid hassles later)
in other words, under £830.
total damage excess waiver:
Inclusions
* Collision Damage excess liability more info
* Theft Waiver excess liability more info
* Damage to:
o Wheels & Tyres
o Windows/Windscreen
o Interior
o Replacement Keys
Exclusions
* Where any rental vehicle has been driven off-road and or has been driven on un-tarmacked roads and or has been driven without due care and attention and or has been driven negligently
* Where the theft or damage is the result of your negligence
* Where the driver is under the influence of alcohol or drugs
* Where the driver(s) has not been named on the rental agreement
* When damage is caused by the rental vehicle being towed away by any unauthorised third party
* Not available on prestige car hire or van hire
In these circumstances, your liability to pay for the excess will not be waived and you may be liable for the full cost up to and exceeding the excess.
