Hi there,

I stick to Doyouspain.com, they’re reliable. I think the earlier you book the better.

If you have friends who travel anywhere in Spain and hire, ask them to explain about the insurance extras, they add this at the airport and it’s important to understand how it works.

Hi Anton

Try  Flamenca cars they are not brokers like Doyouspain and only have their own cars a very up front company with no hidden cost as they say the price they quote is the price you pay.

flamencacars.com   34 661 086 403

They have offices at Alicantie, Murcia and San Javier.

Hope this helps

Regards

Ed

I've used DoYouSpain for 10 years. Whatever you do don't use Dickmans from the list. I have my own excess insurance for about £40 a year. The hire company will block the excess on your credit card, but only take it if there's a problem. 

Once you've made your booking keep checking as the price can go down by as much as 75% or more. You can then change your car or cancel and re-book. If you've already paid DoYouspain are quick to re-fund. Hope this helps.

I would suggest flying into Murcia, it’s only 20 minutes to Sucina then. Doyouspain are at Murcia airport too

I've just got a Fiesta for a week for €4.10 with Firefly. My original booking was for a smaller car at €25.
