Internet Deals on a Rental Car in Dublin
By Matt Ream
Ireland is a fantastically beautiful country, and is best seen from a car. Renting a car in Dublin or elsewhere in Ireland will give you the flexibility and comfort that will make your trip to Ireland even better than it would have been.
A car rental in Dublin itself can be rather pricey, so it is always best to research deals on the internet before you go. The internet will give you all the options available, if you know where to look. Booking in advance will also give you the peace of mind that you already have a car reserved, and don’t have to worry if whatever car rental location you end up at will have a car for you.
Nova Car Hire, based in Killorglin, County Kerry, Ireland, is an agent for Alamo, Budget, European, and National car rental companies, and can offer greatly discounted rates to renters. They can be found online at http://www.rentacar-ireland.com.
I did a quick comparison of online quotes from Nova Car Hire and Hertz on a compact sedan. What came up on Nova was a Ford Focus and an Open Astra. I did a 20-day rental during high season. The Focus showed a savings of over 58% at Nova as compared to Hertz. That’s a significant savings ($745 over the 20 day period).
However, the Opel Astra was 79% higher at Nova as compared to Hertz. That’s going to cost you an extra $1,150 to rent the car.
There are two major lessons here:
First, do your research and get all the online quotes you can get. Prices vary greatly with availability of inventory, demand, and more. Try renting from different pickup locations, not just the airport. Look for deals and they can still be found.
The second lesson here is that it can be difficult to compare apples to oranges, as we say in the USA. Case in point, one of the reasons the Astra was so much higher at Nova was because that was for an automatic transmission vehicle, compared to a manual transmission Astra without air conditioning at Hertz. Same with the Ford Focus, it was manual at Nova and automatic at Hertz.
Shop around the internet and you will find the right deal for you. Book your reservation in advance to get the best deals, but check again just before you go to see if there are any better short-term deals.
The beauty is this can all be done over the internet. Find your best rental car deal now!
