When picking up the car, the staff provided practical suggestions for early pickup. The car was very functional, and the comprehensive insurance offered made our trip much more reassuring. Unfortunately, the cleanliness inside the car needs improvement. There was a strong odor (similar to vomit). Although it's a four-door nine-seater, only the front row windows are adjustable, and without the air conditioning, the air inside doesn't circulate. It's recommended to have staff nearby or accompany you during pickup, as we were initially unfamiliar with the car's operation and had to return to the pickup registration center to ask for help.

For the first rental, we initially chose an Audi A4 estate, but were informed it was unavailable and only a Kia was left. They persuaded us to pay an extra £350 for an upgrade. The second rental experience was even worse. Despite already purchasing full insurance, they added an extra charge of £88 for insurance. When we arrived to return the car at the agreed time, the store was already closed. We didn't receive a detailed bill upon return, and after returning to our country, we found an additional charge of over £200 without any explanation. Our complaint remains unresolved to this day.
