    Very happy! Service was excellent, and picking up and returning the car was easy. Last year in the USA, the rental car company forced me to rent a GPS and downgraded my car to push their insurance, making me wait from 11 PM to 4 AM. In Australia, this rental company provided great service, upgraded my car when my booked model wasn't available, and didn't pressure me to buy insurance. I will definitely rent from this company for future international trips and recommend my driving friends to do the same.
