Renting a compact Ford Focus with a manual transmission for 15 days in Ireland will cost about 570 Insurance costs an extra $ 550 for a total of about 1100 If I had to get a car with an automatic trans would cost an additional 500 I don t understand why this should be so expensive is so high insurance because they understand you will probably damage the car or stolen, I understand the streets are narrow and you may lose a mirror or 2 but hey I could buy a Ford focus for that price here in the States to get where we want to go when you want to go will require renting a car I just want to understand why so expensive.
I doubt you could buy a new Ford Focus for this award.
Cars are expensive insurance on car rental is expensive.
In Ireland, there is a very real risk of the car being damaged, since not only the narrow roads, but most people aren t used to drive a RHD car and take some time to get their road position correct.
If you do not like, it looks other companies - not BIGGIES and rent something a little older and bruised.



Much depends on the time of year you rent out of season, you will see much lower prices because demand is lower.
Last April, we used Dan Dooley Car was a little more, but the price was great this April Dooley was not the most competitive prices, so we used Kemwell and got an excellent price for 9 days.
We do not buy insurance charge our world MC covers us We rent a standard, which I recommend if the driver is used for a standard home It is not too difficult to switch to the shift lever is on the side Conversely, we are used to, but the pedals are in the same place we do not charge GPS t buy or pay for additional drivers these things increase the cost.
I just went on and read Kemwell site, he said.
TERMS Kemwel does not provide insurance coverage is provided by the rental company as indicated additional coverage may be granted to purchase the rental company insurance does not cover damage to windows, tires, roof, or lower within the vehicle.
How can we know how much the insurance will be there must be a way or more people would find another way to get around Ireland, they wouldn t.

LSky, the listed prices are with and without insurance 99 39 My quote yes, dollars were uninsured Even if you buy the insurance, those things you mentioned are not covered, I do not think the flight is, or he there are online sites where you can buy additional coverage that; they have been mentioned here in the past.



We had a world MC a few years ago in particular because it covers rental cars in Ireland this year, we had a Capital One Venture card because they do not charge for foreign transactions.
Every day my DH looks at the euro exchange rate that continues to get worse I think it is actually down a bit now, at least a smidgeon You can not worry about that Make the best plans you can, do your homework, then go for a good time No second guessing, EMC.
Greater caution you'll probably have to pay in advance for a gas tank Some companies allow you to return the car full, you credit cost for other fresh gas for gas and ask you to come back with a tank vacuum, which is difficult to do.
Dukey thank you for your wisdom, I feel so enlightened now Oh, dukey, have you ever heard of sticker shock I called Kemwell and discovered that I could rent a Hyundai I10 to 462 57 to 15 days we will be in Ireland INSURANCE INCLUDING Kemwell is a broker so I was informed that Murray is the company I will praise this advice and LSKY in particular, I can not resist asking anyone know what dukey is in the States.
Is automatic transmission always much more expensive than a stick shift My wife and I will be in Provence this year, and would prefer an automatic.



MC just called and they do not even cover CDW in Ireland with their map Suggestions.
Our global coverage MC DOES rental in Ireland I confirmed with them before I booked last month and they then sent in writing they wouldn t check when we were looking for a card in the last few years, but confirmed after we were accepted figure GB.
Please check the first response I got the phone on the card was yes, but being a skeptic, I called the department benefits from the map and gave a resounding for rentals in Ireland, Italy and 2 other countries.
Joe18 - automatics are usually quite a bit more, because they are not common here, so there are fewer of them, which also limits where you can rent THRM its almost always much cheaper to rent a manual.
I just pulled my letter of TM world regarding coverage for rental cars darned if she didn t expire last week, he was sent in January, good for 60 days, it would have been nice if I ' had kept the original week, we thought to go.



Anyway, we have just called MC and they sent another letter today I think we're covered.
- you'll have to pay extra for the environment, I think 6 euros per day for the first week for the automatic.
- automatic transmissions that options are always much more expensive in Europe some European lead and they are seen as a luxury and taxed Thus, the leasing company passes this on to you.
- keep in mind that even if you can reserve an automatic, you can not get a better pick for the greatest place you can say railway station or airport in the largest city, you can have also pay 37 euros extra for the privelege to pick one of these two places.
What kind of people do saleries Ireland to afford to pay for things like megabucks Ford Focusi I guess it goes to the free health care.
The cars and gasoline were always much more expensive than in North America, we were spoiled by the cheap prices for years.



And no, it doesn t just get free healthcare cars in Canada where I live are more expensive than in the US, but less than in Ireland and I have never seen a doctor bill or a hospital in my life.
I called Kemwell new broker to rental car and confirmed that they understand their insurance rates 57,462 for 15 days rollerskate Hyundai wheeled, stick shift Not bad.
EMC, You seem to be angry about it Have you been to Europe before t compare the two countries and ask why they are not the same.
And do not know what health care has to do with a rental car.
I know that when we rented in Ireland, we had a few scratches and bumps and stories suggest here that is more common than renting a car in Iowa City.



Try Autoeurope others have also suggested Costco, BJ's and Sam's Club have some good codes that give sticker shock offers is frustrating, but usually with enough time put in to research, it usually pays off for this summer I was looking at rates of 1100-1400 for a 2 week car rental in Alaska when I finally found a rate of 900, I was happy, but now a month later, when everyone is still very expensive, I found a rate of 550 with a national chain.
Michel yes I was angry that you see my panties were in a wad, but I'm not now ok thank you for a suggestion, you can start wearing a bigger size you.
MasterRental is an insurance program offered by MasterCard individual bank like Chase, ITES, bankofamerica, etcetera delivers real credit card, but MasterCard provides, supervises and handles all benefits.
In other words, the Bank has no idea of ​​the MasterRental coverage would likely guess they might suspect they might even think they know.


BUT - If you want to know the facts - Call 1 800 MC ASSIST.
Even then, Weasel TM formulation will say something like cover the Republic of Ireland will not be available.
This formulation refers to the fact that Irish car hire companies are not required to accept MasterRental and may choose not to businesses should be readily apparent, but - as they offer the possibility to waive insurance in FIRST place.
You must refuse all offered insurance to take advantage of the coverage MasterRental This means theft, and excess CDW or Super CDW can t Mix-and-Match.
Other limitations are also applicable MC will detail the full list.
What about the countries I - Ireland, Italy and Israel - which makes major credit card countries unwilling to provide insurance coverage for rental cars in these countries, it must be something my ego solution Yourland change the name, and Visa, Mastercard and Amex would jump at the opportunity to ensure Yourish Irish once vehicles.



The serious side, costs are what are only part of the total cost of a trip if you really want to see the Irish countryside, find the best deal, including full CDW, and find other ways to If saving the cost of renting is a dealbreaker, emvo816 has a good solution.
EMC - I biked around Connemara and Dingle Both are delicious if you do t mind a few ups and downs Connemara is particularly nice because there are few cars If you are young, or crazy enough, the descent of the Conor goes into Dingle is not forget you.
