Very satisfied

Booked from a store near Paddington in London, everything went smoothly. Booked an Audi A4 wagon but got a Volvo XC40 AWD instead. It's slightly smaller, but since we had one person less than expected, it worked out fine. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been enough space for our luggage. The car was very new, had built-in navigation and cameras on all sides to detect surrounding vehicles. It could park itself, although we didn't try that feature.

Very satisfied

There was only one inspector when returning the car in Edinburgh, causing a wait. The inspection was slow, inefficient, and the staff was unfriendly. Each car took a long time to inspect, even the undercarriage was checked thoroughly. They said I scratched the front wheel and might be charged £160. The car has over ten thousand miles and isn't new. I said I wasn't sure if it was me because the paintwork was fine. He asked if I had taken pictures of the entire car when renting. Seriously, who photographs the chassis, tires, and wheel rims? Will tire wear be charged too? I was there with my two kids, wasting a lot of time and had to contact the rental company. This nitpicky company makes you scared to drive their cars. Even if it's the customer's fault, would you really repair or replace a rim for a minor scratch? This is terrifying. Although I had full insurance, this experience was very unpleasant.

The queue time was very short; the car was very new, with only 700 miles on it. However, the staff recommended I upgrade the vehicle, which I declined. I feel upgrading would have been much more expensive.
