When picking up the car very carefully inspect all previous scratches and dents to the car, otherwise on return it will be classified as your fault. Do not trust company person who gives you the list of previous scratches the car had, make sure to go over the whole car yourself.

Car was quite old and this I think was reflected in performance of car. It seemed to struggle on changing gear and seemed to also use quite a lot of fuel.
