Our flight was supposed to arrive in Munich at 6:00 AM, and we had booked to pick up the car at 8:00 AM. The flight was an hour early. After a brief rest at the airport and shopping at the supermarket, we went to the counter at 7:30 to handle the car pick-up. A male staff member initially assisted, but said our reserved car type (Volkswagen Golf Estate or similar) was still in town and suggested an upgrade for €25/day. I declined, suspecting a sales tactic. He bluntly told us to wait and come back around 8:00-8:15. After 8:00, a female staff member assisted us, and after verifying our documents and credit card, she didn't hassle us since we had full insurance through the car rental company. Just as she was about to hand over the Volkswagen keys, she and a supervisor couldn't find the car's documents. They politely explained it was an internal issue and offered us a free upgrade to a Mazda. Waiting proved worthwhile!

There was no problem with the queue time. The main issue during the service was the insurance. Before departure, I had purchased full insurance on the Zuzuche website, but when I arrived at the local rental counter, I was informed it wasn't full insurance and had to pay over a hundred euros more. As tourists driving in a foreign country, we definitely choose to buy insurance, so I don't understand what the difference is between Zuzuche's full insurance and the car rental company's full insurance.

Excellent

The Toyota 208 with over 20,000 miles was very clean and in good condition.
