Pros:
Pick-up super-fast and friendly, right in the airport. Great car with low mileage.Cons:
Insurance is a killer - not stated on the quote when I booked the car. 50 euros/day for a compact-sized car - come on people, that's 19,000 euros per year in insurance premiums alone - enough to pay off the full car over less than two years. Unlikely to book with Sixt again if they maintain these killer premiums.10.0 Wonderful
