A 15 minute wait at the Firefly desk on arrival Alicante earlier this month. No Fiesta ( or similar) but handed the keys to a new Opel Zafira. I declined the free upgrade and politely requested something smaller. Despite being low season the smallest available car was a Ford C Max.
I was really impressed with it. Petrol with 6 speed manual. 38000kilometres on the clock. No squeaks or rattles, quiet cruiser at motorway speeds, handled really well when driven hard on mountain roads en route to meet my walking group. Plenty of room for 5 adults when the friends I was villa sharing with went out en masse. On 17” rims it was a comfy drive, no idea of engine size, slick gear change, over sensitive front sensors, reversing camera, decent Sony stereo.
Before driving away I relocated within the multi storey to a lighter area, took plenty of photos and video, found another 5 small pieces of vehicle damage not on the paperwork which was duly amended.
Return was speedy and efficient, nothing to sign which I thought odd, showed them my fuel receipt after brimming the tank. So far a happy customer.
