Any of you sesoned travellers out there have any tips on cheap car rental in France?
I've done the ferry thing over the last 3 years (Roscoff to the Vendee). Next year we're planning to go further south. Looking at flying Ryanair from Shannon to Biarritz for the last week in June & first week in July.
I see Ryanair have paired up with Hertz for car rental abroad. I spoke with a couple who used them earlier this year. When booking the car the picked a particular mid range class, expecting to pick up something like an Opel Astra or Corolla, but ended up with a Renault Clio. It turned out Hertz were in their rights to do so. The Clio was bottom of the pile withing the class my friends had booked. Are there any other pitfalls I should look out for?
