The service from your staff was great. The car had surprisingly a lot of trunk room for it's size The car I rented needed new wiper blades. A disappointment since this is an essential piece of safety equipment in Scotland. I was also startled that changing from a manual transmission to an automatic was so costly. considering the windy narrow roads, it seems you would want to have have drivers who are used to right-hand driving use a simpler car to operate.

Picked up car in dark and rain. Sixt representative didn't supply ordered car. Car that was supplied had hole in bumper. All alloys scratched, misaligned bonnet - it had been in a crash- and scratches all over it. None of this was mentioned by sixt but was emailed out to me afterwards. Phoned sixt who said it was driveable but they'd swap car but wouldn't confirm what replacement would be. I'd also have to drive to them to sort this out. None of this was possible given the schedule I was on. Shoddy service. Poor and potentially unsafe car.

BE CAREFUL! Fortunately Paisley (Glasgow airport, Scotland) accepted my Diners Club credit card had collision and theft coverage, so I could decline paying for Europecar’s coverage. Despite my having paperwork saying my North American auto insurance had up to 60 days global rental coverage (I had a coverage rider noting this, in my name, printed out and with me), this location said they would not have taken that. And Europcar on the week prior Dublin rental refused even the credit card coverage and forced us to purchase the extra Europcar insurance, despite my having Pre-Paid that rental on their website!! So be very careful, and it’s not the rental staff’s fault. Europcar buries the fact (that they are stringent on allowing people to decline paying for coverage. It is 2 clicks in and a big scroll down to see how stringent and that you need proof in writing in you name for them to accept you have suitable 3rd party coverage.

We experienced a very long wait to pick up the initial car. Vauxhall cross was in terrible condition and an awful car so we upgraded. Car was not cleaned and possibly hiding light scratches/ scuff marks in clear coat. Nail in tire resulted in vehicle being recovered and tire replaced/ not repaired. In the end we lost a full day of our holiday due to tire which we were charged for. Total additional costs 1200 pounds above and beyond rental.
