No, he never took a deposit.

As they are older cars, he doesn’t even go around checking for extra scratches or dents when we have returned his cars. We really appreciated this, as I have read about so many people caught out being charged for scratches on the return.

We have used Steve 4 or 5 times now for airport runs and he has never been late. He asked us once if we would mind sharing the  car with other people and as we agreed he only charged €25 Euros. If we had minded, he would have got another person to either pick us or the other group up....

He’s flexible with his hiring as well. We didn’t need a car for the full two months, so we only had 3 hires totalling round two weeks.

After the reopening of Spain after the virus restrictions, he didn’t increase his prices in line with just about every other company to take advantage of the shortage of cars available for hire. So I always go out of my way to recommend him as a show of my appreciation for his integrity and service.

Basically the cars are older reliable run around, so it’s pot luck what you get.

I think you will be hard pressed to beat Steve’s price by the sound of things. However, if you have Facebook you can search Dave Gaskell (car hire). He lives in Guardamar del Segura and operates the same way as Steve. Never used him, but he has a very good reputation and is reliable.

Also FB is Rent Me Car Hire. Can’t remember where I got there details, was thinking of using them previously....

Finally Malarky’s Trevor Lancaster 634 346 262 or 692 069 085. Good reputation and reliable as well, but not used him.

D & M car hire in Villamartin is another possible.+34 665 756934. They have plenty of cars dotted around our area. Again never used, had read a few good reviews about them, but note there is a bad one on Google 3 months ago.

We also used Luzcars, who were excellent. Office is in Torrevieja, but they delivered the car to the airport car park where we did the paperwork.
