Be wary of Spanish branches of Europcar. Lower quality vehicles and poor service compared to UK.

They use a number ticket system for queuing to pick up the car. There were quite a few people, but since we could sit and wait, the overall pickup process was smooth.

Very good experience

The return process at the store is too slow; it's recommended to arrive a bit earlier.

The car had a range of body damages. The body damage was not significant. However, if the policy of the car rental company is to charge customers for damage, then those damages should be repaired with those funds prior to the next rental, one would presume. Regarding car function, engine and power were good. The air conditioning thermostat control was not functioning very well - it did not shut off the air when the cabin temperature was achieved. This appeared to be part of the car design in that the air temperature being blow into the cabin seemed to be changed with the thermostat control and the air would continue to blow irregardless of the actual cabin temperature. The car appeared to be equipped with a rear camera that would engage when in reverse. However, the camera was not operable all the time, suggesting that some of the prior body damage created a loose connection with the camera. Given the size of the car and the parking and streets in Europe, a rear camera would have been a useful feature, that was supposed to be part of the rental, but was not operable most of the time.
