This is my third time renting a car from Europcar. Whether in Europe or the UK, the experience has been great. I will definitely continue using their service in the future!

Convenient pickup and drop-off. A £250 deposit was charged to my credit card and refunded just over an hour after returning the car.

Overall, it was a smooth experience. They tried to upsell a higher model and insurance, but after learning that I already had full insurance from QEEQ and experience with renting cars abroad, they didn't insist. It's understandable as it's part of their sales process and shouldn't be taken too seriously. We didn't get the Grandland but were given an equivalent MG ZS with over 10,000 kilometers. The 1.5 engine felt a bit underpowered, but it was manageable with the manual transmission and generally sufficient for the speed limits in the UK. Overtaking was a bit challenging, but both cars are probably of similar quality. No extra charges for returning the car so far. To ensure peace of mind, take photos and videos of the car inside and out before picking up and returning it, keep the gas receipts, and you should be fine.

Staff were humorous and provided good service. The only downside was that adding an additional driver was too expensive at £15/day. There was a free shuttle to and from the airport, which was very convenient. The vehicle was in excellent condition.

Really disappointed with Europcar. Was told on arrival that they only have a Vauxhall Mokka, rather than the Qashqai. "Offered" an upgrade to an XC90, at just £90 per day as my choice wasn't available. Then offered a mercedes at an extra 50 per day. Still wanted my choice but was told the Mokka is the same. It definitely is not
