We hadn't used Europcar in Johannesburg for a while, so decided to hire from their O.R. Tambo International Airport offices. It cost R1599 for a Volkswagen Polo for the weekend, with 1 additional driver & a car chair for our infant (which was a bit of a mission fetching & fitting). Instead of the Polo, to our delight Europcar gave us a Chevrolet Aveo, which has plentiful boot space as well as a spacious interior. Inside the car I was pleased to see that Europcar still stock mints, something which started in the Imperial Car Rental days.
The staff at Europcar Tambo were friendly and there was absolutely no queue. Our little one explored every nook & cranny of their offices, and they offered me coffee & gave me a free newspaper, whilst I waited for my partner (who was stocking up on food for our hungry sprogs). When I dropped off the car they were there to direct me where to park, fetched a trolley for us and most importantly, were friendly to us.
All in all, they did their job so well that there's not much to write about!
