The approximate total is the total that people pay the majority of the time. Your total could change if you need to add options to your rental, such as GPS or coverage for the car (You should contact your insurance company to see if you need coverage, if any).

It's very important to return the car full - the rental companies don't charge gas station prices (roughly double?) Make sure you take all the parts of your driving licence (I'm in the UK and we have two separate sections - don't ask!) and the credit card you book with. Remember: no credit card, no rental car! They will pre-...

Thanks for the extra tips. I will get extra insurrance. Thank God, I don't have any serious accidents on my records, except two: 1) I bumped into a car while reversing. The car was parked in the middle of a dark plateau (it wasn't a parking place there), in the night, black car, impossible to see. 2) One minor bump in the rear end ...

Unless they run things differently in the UK with regards to cancellations, there is no time limit to cancel for a regular reservation. In the US, if you don't show then you don't show...no penalty.
