Car Hire Sizes
Example Cars
Although example cars are given by our suppliers you could get a similar vehicle in the same category. The vehicle classification is made along passenger and luggage capacity which is very close along the range. 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.
