Record low car rental price |
SouthAfrica.TO survey |
[Note that since this article was written, Imperial Car Rental rebranded as Europcar on 1 Jun 2009]
With all this talk of inflation and high prices, it's fantastic to see that a First Car Rental quote was the lowest car rental price we've surveyed this year (at any airport in South Africa) . We looked at car rental prices at Durban Airport for the weekend from the 15th August 2008 (2100) until the 17th August 2008 (1300):

Who's been cheapest previously?
It's interesting to note who have previously been offering the cheapest car rentals at Durban International Airport (all rentals for the weekend). We can see that Tempest Car Hire has most often offered the cheapest car rental prices, but First Car Rental has the record cheapest price.
