To hire a vehicle from
CYPRUS CAR RENTAL
you
must be between the age of 23 and 75
years old and have at least one years driving experience and be in possession of
a valid drivers license.
When you have found the car that you like, you can fill
in the form online or e mail us with your dates, the place you will be staying, the place you wish the car to be delivered to or your pick up point.
We advise
you to book early for the summer months or the Christmas period as there is
often a shortage of cars during those busy periods. If you want a 7 seater
car, they are especially sought after so please 'book early'.
When
you have asked us for a quote or availability of the car of your choice,
we will send you back an e mail with availability and the price, this is
not a booking, to make a booking you need to reply to that e mail
accepting the quote, we will then send you a firm booking with a
reservation reference number, when you pick up the car or have it
delivered to you, you will need to have a valid credit card in order to
pay and will also be asked to produce your drivers licence and passport.
On
most of the cars, comprehensive insurance and CDW (Collision Damage
Waiver) is included. There is an excess which is non waivable - Car
groups A to F is CyŁ100 whilst higher groups is CyŁ200.
To clarify the insurance that is offered, Neither comprehensive
insurance nor CDW covers Fire or Theft, CDW. does not cover loss or
damage to the vehicle or its parts or accessories caused by theft,
attempted theft or vandalism.
This is not available as it is not within the experience of the
companies here. No doubt the longer we have foreigners coming to Cyprus
and youngsters who joyride, then the insurance companies will add this
option, but for now it is not available. The bottom line is, lock the
car when you are not using it, as long as you have shown due diligence
it will not be your fault.
Additional damage waiver.
This covers the tyres, the windscreen and the oil sump, and is available
at either CyŁ 2.00 or CyŁ 3.00 per day depending on the car category. A
to F is CyŁ 2.00 whilst F2 to J is CyŁ 3.00
Drivers between 23 and 25 may be allowed rent cars but they cannot
purchase insurance to cover the excess. Off road driving is not allowed.
You
may add a spouse to your rental agreement as an added driver for free,
otherwise an extra driver on your policy is charged at the rate of
CyŁ1.50 per driver per day.
Baby
seats are available at CyŁ1.50 per day per seat.
You
are not permitted to carry more passengers for the classification of car
than is stated in these pages. i.e. if it is a 7 seater car you are not
allowed to squeeze 9 people in it. If you do, you will not be covered on
the insurance.
Northern Cyprus: You may drive to the north through the border at your
own risk. You will need to buy extra insurance at the border, but please
be aware, you will not be covered by the insurance cover from the South,
if you have a problem, it will be your responsibility to return the car
to us, undamaged. We cannot come there to help you, you will need to
arrange car recovery yourself. There has been some problems with the
insurance cover offered in the North, please read the small print as we
have had reports that the cover is inadequate.
