Pros: The car was brand new and very nice, but I had to wait an hour in line. Also they were not at the rental car village with the rest of the airport car rental places, you had to go to the bus terminal for a shuttle as it is off-site from the airport.
Cons: I was charged 170 pounds ($220 USD) for just scratching on the hubcaps on one side. No cracks, still perfectly fine and could just be polished up. So they way overcharged for something small. You could entirely replace them for that amount, but they even said it was only for 'refurbishing'. Also wai

These are bait and switch bandits, avoid like the
Cons: I booked a car online for 13 pounds a day for 10 days. On arrival I was told I would have to pay an additional 13.25 per day basic insurance. As it was nearly midnight I told them I would take the car for 1 day. When I returned the car I heard them doing the same con on another customer. I rented a better car for less at Europecar just down the road.

Pickup in London is a bit odd
Pros: The car was great. Hyundai i30. Drop off in Edinburgh was a breeze.
Cons: As an offsite location, it was a bit awkward. The agent kept trying to upgrade me, but wasn't pushy so I guess that wasn't really a problem. It just wasn't as smooth as I expect. Stick to your guns and get the car you booked with no upgrades or price changes.
