1. Why is it worth-while for private persons to rent a car?

• First of all because for a relatively small sum they get high value: mobility
• Because the renters can plan their expenditures in advance which is very important for instance when taking a vacation
• Because they get full service, they only have to drive and fill up (except when they hire a driver from us)
• Because it is comfortable, we deliver the car to anywhere in Budapest or to the Franz Liszt Airport and at the end of the rental we will collect it as well
• Because we are non-stop available: you are safe with our 24 hours Assistance service
• Because the rental fees include all costs (except for gas and parking), for example motorway/turnpike toll and snow-tyre

2. Why is it worth-while for firms to rent a car?

Firms can put down the total rental fee as costs.
Rental fee can immediately be deducted unlike amortisation costs of company cars
Renter firms can plan expentitures in advance
Renter firms need not invest in vehicles
Further advantages:

• service costs
• tyres and other attritions
• amortization
• transfer fee
• third-party liability and casco
• local tax on car
• tax on company car

the costs of all these are included in the rental fee.

The renter is free of all the hassle and risks and costs of selling the used cars.
Our rental cars are being taken care of by our expert mechanics which is the optimal solution for our renters.

3. What is required for a company to rent a car?

If the renter is not a natural but a juridical person and it is represented by a person with signature authorisation he/she is required to produce a personal identity document or passport, driver's licence, signature registration card, and (copy of) certificate of incorporation.
If the person acting on behalf of the company does not have the right to sign, then besides the above-mentioned he/she also needs a genuine authorisation from the company (with two witnesses).

4. What is required for private persons to rent a car?

When picking up the car we require an identity document or passport, a proper valid driver's licence and a credit card for deposit (Visa, Eurocard / Mastercard, Visa Electron or American Express).
