We were upgraded on the car for no cost,, which made the rental experience great. Did opt for 3rd party car rental insurance, which was more economical than the agency or easycar.

an option to be able to extend the rental was not a positive one. I did not extend in the end. I hired a car for 12 days and to extend was too much of a cost and hassle and yet there were loads of cars not on rent sitting in the yard..

The man at the pick up place was excellent and helped us booked additional time as I didn't realise that the drop off time had to be the same as the pick up time and he changed the drop off to the airport for us.

Made a booking for a hyundai i30 or similar, got a suzuki baleno, which is similar in size but worse off on the fuel economy. On the road, the car struggles a little on the Tasmanian hills and upslopes, but smooth drive overall. Handling was okay, transmission sometimes shifts up a gear for no reason which results in over revving, which is a known issue with this car (it was discontinued) Came with an android-auto/apple-car compatible touchscreen interface, so you can save on getting the satnav. Boot space is generous enough for a big luggage and two smaller sized baggage. Europcar service staff was good, had a pleasant experience.

Following the standard procedure to pick up the car, we were then informed at the final payment stage that there were additional charges. It took us an hour and a half to contact the car rental company for clarification, and they were unhelpful, saying they didn't know either. We are on a vacation, and no one has time to deal with such issues.

Picking up and returning the car was very convenient. There was a minor mishap when I returned the car. I was supposed to return the key to the car rental counter in the airport hall, but I accidentally left it in the car. Later, I contacted the rental company by phone and they informed me that the return was completed, so there was no need to worry.
