Have you seen the advert for Hertz car rental that is around at the moment featuring a Daihatsu Terios? Does that mean we can hire one and simply take to the hills?

Well, it is pictured in an off-road setting, so do you think they would mind if it was returned covered in mud? Hardly!

Knowing Hertz you would be hit with several charges:

Cleaning charge for cleaning the mud off.

Cleaning charge for the interior where your muddy boots have been.

Damage charge for any prangs you put onto the vehicle.

Paint charges for scratches you put on the vehicle.

And as we all know these charges are excessive, and you would lose your waiver or deposit as well.

True, but as you're well aware, there is no way in 100 years that anyone can honestly say they treat a hire car like they would their own property; it's human nature.

In days gone by, they used to say the floor of a hire car was 'in the shape of a giant ashtray'. I rest my case.

Agreed BTW, Hertz would throw the book at anyone who was foolish enough to return a motor covered in mud. Cheaper to buy an old dog off fleabay, run it into the ground, bin it!
