just out of interest ....when you hire a car abroad do you always hire an Aston or Porsche or like me, or, do you tend to hire a VW golf passat or even a GM Insignia ?
Michael you are making me feel bad for squeezing my family into the Micra rental car we have on Lefkas at the moment. What a contrast from last weekends Scottish V12 jaunt

"You get a Maserati from Ferrari."
"Mercedes S class from Porsche"
.... And we've now discovered; Vauxhall from Aston Martin.
I've taken a Jaguar XJ to a couple of independents over the years. About 20 years ago the worst courtesy car I got was a 10 year old mini which was running on 3 cylinders. More recently I've had a Daihatsu Cuore and the owner's personal XKR from the same garage. The Cuore was such fun that I now own one! (my third)

Lets just hope the tie in with Mercedes does have a positive effect..............
Keep hoping.
The last car that Mercedes-Benz lent to me was something called a GLA. £35,000 so they said.
What a dreadful car.
Perhaps I should have used the OPs line, 'I would rather walk', but I had not driven the thing then.
I don't care what car other people see me in (except Postman Pat type cars), so a Vauxhall Insignia would have been ideal, and far more pleasant to travel in.
Perhaps OPs complaint should be to AML, for the repetition of an identical car fault.

It is different when my car goes to "Works" as I know its in the best hands and i'd rather it have a repetitive fault dealt with by the best than any of the rest
JUST WISH THEY GIVE ME A BLOODY ONE 77 TO KNOCK ABOUT IN WHILE THEY DO

Never heard this expression before LOL
And no one has ever shouted it at me as I drive by with my tunes on full, my Versace silk shirt and freshly streaked golden hair (No grey) !!
I usually get "Who do you think you are? Lord Threeshires or somebody?"
I expect no less from Vauzel drivers and never react
