I booked my car through Hertz when they had a deal on. 23 days for £414 and about 10% cash back, I think. Now my brother is coming on 24th and of course that deal not on anymore. Best I can find is £375 for a 4x4. Anyone seen any good deal atall. He will be there 19 days.
Thanks
 
Are the dates 24th July - 12th Aug?
What size SUV?

24th to 11th. Either 5 or 7 people. 5 ok but would be handy for one of us to have a 7 seater just to save on car park fees at park. No long journeys so doesn't matter if a bit squashed.
Thanks
 
7 seater SUV's are expensive (glad I booked mine last year:goodvibes) prices below after using 15% link and 12% Quidco.
I am not booking my August trip yet, waiting for a code to be released to bring these prices down or a better deal elsewhere.

Four sizes, Premium is the only guaranteed 7 seater although I have always had 7 seats in the Full size.

Intermediate £320.14
Standard £474.23
Full size £632.06
Premium £914.06
 

I got a 7 seater last year through Virgin fly drive so no discounts or anything. Top insurance and x2 drivers was just about £400. So expensive but less than some of those prices without trying to get it cheap? Seems prices have rocketed.

A few things to make sure we are comparing like for like.
Is it a 7 seater SUV you have or a 7 seater Minivan?
Is it for 19 nights or 14 nights?
Booking so far in advance doesn't always give you great prices.

For example if you collect a 7 seater minivan this Saturday for 2 weeks it will cost you £264.18 but book now for 2 weeks in August and it will cost £350.81

Thank you. Are those prices above what you booked at and no longer available? I also booked using that Hertz deal. Just wish I had known my brother was coming.

Those 4 prices are available now for the dates your Brother wants thru the 15% link & 12% Quidco.

7 seater SUV for 16 days. I thought it was a poor deal at the time. We upgraded last minute before we flew so just sucked it up. That said. We might have booked a mini can and got given an SUV. I can't remember now.

I have a 7 seater SUV booked for next Monday for 14 nights, £230 in Hertz sale but can't get anywhere near those prices now.
The SUV's do tend to fluctuate more than regular cars.
 
Great, thanks. Do you think the cashback will still work even though you add that bit of the address on afterwards? Still a good deal without it though.
I am really kicking myself for not getting the bigger 4x4 now when it was so cheap.
 
Follow the instructions and cashback pays no problem. Done it 4 or 5 times now.
