Hi---Can anyone recommend a good, reliable, affordable car rental agency? Have used Alamo in the past (good results) and Avis (not-so-good results) booking from the US. Is there another I could look into, from home in US or perhaps a local Madrid agency? Thanks!

Hi!

I'd say that if you already know a good car rental agency then you should go for it again . However,public transportation in Madrid is a better chocie (the whole city and suburbs are well connected, it's cheap, it's comfortable, etc).

Other car rental agencies that I know of are:

1. Europcar

2. Pepecar

Good luck!

I would be sure to give Carjet a try. They have an excellent web site.

I'm giving Hertz a try, as they came up with the cheapest rate for a midsize car for me. I don't get my car until the 21st of March so I really can't be sure!

Has anyone had experience with http://www.argusrentals.com/ ?

Floroz,

I used argusrentals this last September, and everything went smoothly. They were reasonable priced compare to the American companies. Actually, I think they were the cheapest I could find. We drove from Madrid to Barcelona, and Malaga to Madrid. The cars were clean and ran fine.

Good luck!
