Before you buy online; search the domain name & 'problems'.
Writing about web page http://www.travelsupermarket.com/community/forums/t/car-hire-scams-215.aspx
My family trip to Croatia led me to start searching “zadar car hire”. All of these ask you to fill out all your details to get a quote so I did the ‘why not?’ test first.
I copied their domain name of the top results and “problems” into another search tab and noted the results & was quickly put off three of them.
Some of the more reputable companies such as Sixt were much cheaper through Lastminute etc than on their own site. CarHire3000.com who I have used in the past offered the same prices on their own site. My sister booked the cars and went with Sixt via lastminute.com.
Why the Zafira picture? My passengers demand ‘stadium seating’!

Yeah I think I’m going to start to do that – although now I typically buy from Amazon most of the time…

Yes! One should be very careful while hiring cars especially when you are out on a trip. Make sure to cross check the details about the service provider in order to avoid later hazards.
