Super Mini Automatic Car Hire – it is hard to say but you can rent them here!
Ten years ago you would be looking at a compact sized car to get an automatic gearbox. Anything smaller would be underpowered for an automatic gearbox, so what has changed?

Example Cars
Although example cars are given by our suppliers you could get a similar vehicle in the same category.

You can appreciate that a supplier fleet although biased towards a single manufacturer will always have a wide range of manufacturers and models.
As a cost comparison engine we are tied to what our partners pass us through the XML feed we request and receive car hire searches. We are though adding further example cars in the car hire fleet along the following lines base on over 10 years in the car hire industry.
