Top Tips on Finding Cheap Car Rental Deals in Ireland
There are more companies offering quality car hire services in Ireland today than ever before. This increased competition means there are more cheap car rental deals for visitors to Ireland.
However, there are some basic tips and tricks to help you find the best deal. First of all, you should shop around. Decide on which class of car suits you whether that is a small hatchback or a large family car.
Try doing an internet search for car rentals in Ireland and see what prices the various companies are offering for the class of car you are looking for. However, be aware that cheapest may not always be the best.
Whichever car hire company you choose, be sure to read all the fine print to check for hidden extra charges. These may include insurance that you did not request or need, 'airport fees' and other extras.
Other fees that can push up the cost of car rental include extra drivers and the rental of standard equipment such as child seats. So decide on your exact requirements before comparing quotes.
Also ensure that CDW (collision damage waiver) is included in your car rental quote. Any reputable car rental agency will include this. If you do not have CDW you will be liable for the full cost of repair to your rental car if you crash.
Once you have chosen a product that suits you, you should be able to get cheaper car rental in Ireland by booking early and by booking online. Also, remember that while an automatic car may be more convenient, a manual will be much more economical.
Finally, cheap car rental deals in Ireland are usually available to those aged between 21 and 70. You can expect to pay more if you are not within this age group.

Planning a Torrevieja Car Hire
Travel around Costa Blanca in style. When you land in Spain, you’ll find many modes of transportation available to you. The most convenient and flexible way to travel is by car. This allows you to travel wherever you’d like, whenever you’d like. Also, there’s no waiting for public transportation if you have your own car.
There are plenty of places to rent a car, from Alicante to Benidorm. You can also consider a Torrevieja car hire. It’s a good idea to reserve your car ahead of time to ensure you’ll have one waiting for you when you arrive. You may get a better deal if you book the car as part of your air and hotel vacation package.
Booking a Car
Your first stop in booking a car should be the internet. There are nine choices of car hire companies at the Alicante airport, and twenty in Benidorm, so you should weigh all your options before you go. Online, you’ll be able to compare the companies in terms of daily rates, weekly rates, cars offered, and additional fees. At first glance, a price may seem reasonable, but when costs like insurance, child safety seats, taxes and gasoline are included, it might not appear so reasonable after all.
You may also find a deal by calling the car hire company directly as well. Sometimes you’ll find sales that are not advertised on the internet. Conversely, you might also find sales on the internet that aren’t available upon calling the company directly. Be sure to do your research in advance to secure the best rate.
Other Car Hire Considerations
What size car do you need? The smaller the car you rent, the lower the price. Consider the number of people that will be traveling in it. Also, an important consideration (and one that’s often forgotten) is luggage. How many bags will you be bringing? A car you think might fit your needs sometimes becomes too small when you take the fact that you need extra room for your baggage into account.
Economy cars are the most popular rental. If you reserve one, you may able to upgrade upon your arrival, should you decide you need more room. The inventory of economy cars is exhausted faster than any other size. If you rent an economy size, and there are none available when you arrive, many times you’ll receive a complimentary upgrade to the next largest size available.
Consider how long you’ll need the car. Many times it makes more sense to book a weekly rental. You might save by reserving a weekly rental, and returning the car early.
By doing your homework and reading the fine print, you’ll be able to confidently make a car hire decision.

Travel agents sometimes offer hotel and flight packages that may include car rental which is not a bad option as long as you have compared the cost of the entire package to the price of booking each part separately.
Pick up point: Even though there is little difference between the cost of renting a car directly from the airport or from the city. Check the price difference between the two options and be sure to intimate your car rental company of the same. It might be cheaper to rent in town and many companies often provide transportation from the airport.
You may not always get the best deal while hiring a car, but regardless of how you find your car-hire, you should keep the above tips in mind while comparing the rental packages and finally heading for a booking.

Additional Ways to Finance Your Next Car
Traditionally, getting the right personal car finance deal used to mean deciding which bank to take out a loan with. Nowadays, there are now more ways to finance your next car, with the addition of Hire Purchase, Personal Contract Hire, Personal Contract Leasing and Lease Purchasing. This article aims to provide more information so that you find the right personal car finance deal.
Hire Purchase
Hire Purchase is the often used alternative to a bank loan when it comes to financing a new car. The finance company will pay the dealer for the car, and then you pay back the finance company. You can pay for the car over an agreed period of up to 60 months, and there is no VAT charged on the monthly repayments. Once the last repayment has been made, the vehicle is yours.
Personal Contract Hire
Personal Contract Hire is a way of leasing a vehicle over a set time period. The annual mileage is set by the lease company and is usually 10,000 miles per year, although this can be changed, but will increase the monthly payment. It is also possible to incorporate maintenance into the monthly payment. Personal Contract Hire is very similar to the Contract Hire leasing schemes that businesses use, but for individuals. As it is a lease, you never own the vehicle, which may deter some people. The main advantage of a lease is that the lease company takes on some of the expense of car ownership such as depreciation. Most vehicles will depreciate by 40% in the first year, and will have lost 60% of their value after 3 years. Prestige brands will hold their value better than mainstream brands, but are not always affordable. Perhaps you will be able to afford a bigger or better car using Personal Contract Hire than with a bank loan, or Hire Purchase. There is usually a small deposit to pay when taking out the Personal Contract Hire plan agreement, and a lower monthly repayment compared to Hire Purchase. Also, the family budget can be accurate and forecast for years in advance, as breakdown insurance and maintenance costs such as servicing, exhausts, tyres and batteries can be included in the monthly payments. There will be no costly surprises if the car breaks down and needs a lot of work doing to it.
Personal Contract Hire is also a popular choice for company car drivers who have been given a car or mileage allowance instead of a company car.
Personal Contract Purchase
Personal Contract Purchase is similar to Personal Contract Hire but with lower payments. Lower payments are achieved as there is a Guaranteed Future Value (GFV), which states what the vehicle will be worth at the end of the lease period.
Using Personal Contract Purchase helps to save money and provides peace of mind. However, depreciation will need to be considered, as this helps to determine the GFV. A car that depreciates more will be worth less, and so have a smaller GFV at the end of the lease period. At the end of the lease period, there are three options: give the vehicle back to the lease company, purchase the vehicle at the GFV, or part exchange the vehicle. Part exchanging the vehicle is the most popular choice as it allows any equity (what the vehicle is worth) to be used against another car.
Lease Purchasing
Lease Purchasing is similar to Hire Purchase, but there is a large final payment (balloon payment) at the end of the lease period, which explains the low monthly payments. Finance is usually used to pay the balloon payment. This method can help you afford a car that was previously out of your budget, but the final payment may still be very high, and possibly more than the value of the car.

What To Look For With Car Hire UK Services
When choosing to work with a car hire UK service, there are several things you want to look for in the service that you choose to do business with. Here are some guidelines to help you get the most from car hire UK companies.
One of the first things you will need to do is read the fine print of what is expected of you as a driver and operator of the vehicle. While you may have rented a number of vehicles in your own country, it is always a good idea to double-check the requirements when visiting another nation. Much of what you will find in the UK rules and regulations will be very similar to what you are used to in your own country. However, there may be one or two matters that may require some further explanation. Make sure you read an agreement before you sign up for anything, so there are no surprises down the road.
Second, you want to get the best deal that you can when engaging the services of a car hire UK company. Just as in many countries, there are enough vendors for car rental services in the United Kingdom that you will find a lot of competition. Use this to your advantage and find out who has the best rate. One thought to keep in mind is that some of the car hire UK services that do not have a presence at the airport may in fact be cheaper. Just make sure they provide complimentary shuttle service to and from the airport, or at least shuttle service that is available at a small enough rate that it makes the car rental rate attractive.
Finally, inquire about the support services that you may need during your stay in the United Kingdom. For example, how does the car hire UK service handle roadside assistance? What types of situations are considered to be legitimate reasons to call for roadside assistance? How easy is it to get maps or GPS services with the rental? In the event that the rental vehicle encounter engine problems, how quickly can you be issued a replacement vehicle?
Understanding what can and can't be done for you as part of the rental agreement is a big step in choosing the right car hire UK service. A low rate may be great, but if is does not come with much in the way of customer support, shop around for a service that will offer you a more comprehensive package.

From chocolate and roses, to champagne and private cabanas, the exclusive, reservations-only retreat has covered all the bases for an unforgettable Valentine’s Day for two. Adding to an amazing day swimming with dolphins, snorkeling with rays and tropical fish, relaxing on pristine beaches and drifting along a crystal clear tropical river, these packages give Valentine’s Day a spectacular sizzle and splash found only at Discovery Cove®.
With spaces still available the week of February 11 and packages valid through February 29, 2008, there is plenty of time to make February a month to remember. The three Valentine’s Month packages include:
Valentine’s Honey Package Starting at just $74.95, this sweet treat includes a souvenir 6 x 8 photo and frame; boxed chocolates; and a keepsake buoy with a personalized message delivered to your honey by one of Discovery Cove’s lovable Atlantic bottlenose dolphins.
Valentine’s Sweetheart Package Upgrade to the Sweetheart Package ($149.95) to enjoy the souvenir photo and frame, chocolates, and dolphin “love note” delivery, plus a private cabana overlooking the Dolphin Lagoon, a bottle of champagne, and two souvenir toasting flutes.
Valentine’s Romance Package The Romance Package ($299.95) gives guests the ultimate experience, combining Honey and Sweetheart package amenities with a champagne chiller, one dozen red roses, and a souvenir DVD of their Discovery Cove® experience.
Package prices are in addition to park admission and require the purchase of at least one dolphin-swim package. Florida residents can take advantage of an exclusive rate of $199 (plus tax) for a dolphin-swim package, and just $99 (plus tax) for a non-dolphin swim package.
Located in the heart of Orlando, Discovery Cove® provides a secluded, tropical retreat where couples can enjoy extraordinary once-in-a-lifetime adventures together through up-close encounters with exotic marine life and other animals. In the sparkling Ray Lagoon, couples have unlimited time to snorkel, swim and wade hand-in-hand among hundreds of velvety, graceful cownose and southern rays. The Coral Reef provides an incredible underwater playground full of thousands of colorful, tropical fish and other marine life. In the massive free-flight aviary, shady walkways lead through a lush jungle where guests can observe and hand-feed more than 250 exotic birds. A winding river, sandy beaches and resort pool add to the paradise, but the centerpiece of the park, and the highlight of the Discovery Cove® experience, is the dolphin interaction. Here, guests learn about, play with and ride alongside a beautiful bottlenose dolphin. Each visitor enjoys up-close interactions, such as kissing, petting and feeding the gentle dolphins – for most guests, a dream come true. With each of the Valentine’s packages, a dolphin will help you make a lasting impression by personally delivering a “love note” buoy to your sweetheart.
With only 1,000 guests per day, couples can spread out to enjoy the all-inclusive benefits of a full continental breakfast, freshly-prepared lunch, all snacks and beverages throughout the day. Admission also includes the use of all park amenities such as snorkel gear, towels, lockers and parking, as well as a seven-day, unlimited-use pass to either SeaWorld Orlando or Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.
For those set to impress this Valentine’s Day, call 1-877-4-DISCOVERY to make a reservation.
The Worlds of Discovery parks include SeaWorld parks in Orlando, San Diego and San Antonio; Busch Gardens Africa and Adventure Island in Tampa Bay and Busch Gardens Europe and Water Country USA in Williamsburg, Va.; Discovery Cove in Orlando; and Sesame Place near Philadelphia. Aquatica, SeaWorld’s waterpark, is under construction in Orlando.

Palma de Mallorca Airport welcomes some 20 million people to the island every year. Once you are out of the Son Sant Jean Airport located 8 km (5 miles) west of Palma de Mallorca you could easily drive off in your personally rented car to your exotic holiday destinations like Alcudia Cala d’or, Palma Nova, C’an Picafort, Sa Coma, Cala Millor Porto Colom and Magalluf.

Opt For Car Hire On Your UK Holiday
Among residents and travellers alike, the UK is famous for its congested public transport networks. From the London Underground to Britain's cross-country rail networks, the stress of having to deal with UK public transport can bring out the worst in nearly every Briton - and a good many tourists as well! So, if you're planning to embark on a multi-stop tour of the UK, it might be in your favour to think of alternative modes of transport. You might find the most convenient option is simply to hire a car.
Car hire in the UK will allow you to traverse this stunning country at your own leisure. You won't have to rely on the unpredictability of public transport networks, or have to adapt your own travel schedule to fit operating train times. Driving a hired car around the UK will allow you to take your driving holiday at your own speed - both metaphorically and literally - and is sure to afford you time to breathe.
For instance, if you’re a tourist hoping to find a convenient way to travel around the British Isles, you'll be able to hire a car as soon as you arrive. All major airports in the UK boast accessible car rental facilities, so your holiday can begin as soon as you've left the arrival terminal. Hire a car upon your arrival in Heathrow, and you'll be able to drive to a variety of top UK holiday destinations - from Cornwall to Cardiff, or Exeter to Edinburgh.
However, if you do choose one of many low cost UK car hire options, it's important to figure out where in the country affords the most convenient driving opportunities. For example, if you're spending your entire holiday in London, then driving isn't going to be your best transport option - no matter how crowded the tube may get!
Instead, if you're opting to hire a car on your UK holiday, take a drive through the rugged mountainous regions of Wales, and enjoy the serenity of Snowdonia. Alternatively, drive to Scotland and you'll be able to appreciate the tranquillity of the glens and the staggering beauty of the Scottish Highlands. Or take a drive in your hired car through the Yorkshire Dales or past the stunning sights of the Lake District to discover the England that William Wordsworth held so dear.
On the other hand, if you've arrived in the mainland and you're hoping to travel to Northern Ireland, don't think that your only travel option is to book a flight to Belfast. If you choose to hire a car, you'll be able to drive to a number of ferry ports where you can take the ferry to Ireland. Drive to Stranraer, for example, and you’ll be able take the ferry straight to Belfast. Alternatively, take the historic Holyhead to Dublin ferry and drive across the Emerald Isle's breathtaking sights to get to your destination.
Whatever plans you might have for your holiday in the UK, opting for car hire gives you limitless possibilities – allowing you to make the most of your visit, and at a pace to suit you.

Car Finance Options Explained
When buying a new or used car there are so many options now available. From personal loans to more specialist finance such as Personal Contract Purchase it leaves a lot of options for which to choose from. So what are all the options and which one is right for you.
Personal Contract PurchasePCP is fast becoming a very popular method of car finance. You pay a monthly amount towards the purchase of the car and at the end of a pre-defined purchase period you can then choose pay a lump sum to buy the car or just return the car with no obligation. This style of finance is great for those people who like to change their car on a regular basis but do not want to pay the full amount for a new car.
Hire PurchaseThis is the more traditional way to buy a car. You enter into a contract to buy the car over a certain period of time during which pay the car off in monthly instalments. At the end of this period the car is paid for and legally becomes yours. As a Hire Purchase is effectively a secured loan if you miss any payments then the seller has a right to repossess the car.
Lease PurchaseLease / Credit Purchase is similar to a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) in that a lump sum amount is deferred to the end of the agreement. This lump sum reduces the regular monthly payments and allows you to purchase a more expensive care than you thought possible.
Unlike PCP a lease Purchase offers no option to return the vehicle to the finance company at the end of the agreed contract period. It is up to the customer to settle the final balloon payment through additional finance, cash or part-exchange with the finance company.
Contract HireThis is an agreement where a rental is paid in return for the vehicle over a period of 1, 2, 3 or 4 years. It is ideal if your business prefers to reduce its financial risk by not owning the vehicle and having to deal with the administration with new cars and also worrying about the value of the car over time.
As a business you may also be able to apportion some of the rentals towards tax relief if you are VAT registered. Contract Hire is also deemed to be an operating and is regarded differently to purchase contracts. As a result your business may benefit from other tax advantages.
Contract Hire payments are specific to the car you buy and are also dependent on the amount of mileage the car will do each year. A deposit will have to be paid and this normally amounts to 3 months of the contract hire payment.
ConclusionThere are so many car finance options now available it would be hard to see why you cannot get your hands on whatever car you wanted, within reason. If you don't fancy taking on car finance then you can also look at secured or personal loans if you think it would work out cheaper or easier to make your dream car purchase.

If you are flying into a particular airport, you will likely be able to set up a car hire from a company that operates out of the airport terminal. If you prefer a car hire that is in town, they will often shuttle you from the airport to their location where you will pick up your vehicle. Since the car hire business has become very popular with visitors, there are a wide variety of vehicles that are available. For one person or a couple, you may prefer a sporty car that will allow the top to be put down as you travel across the countryside. If you have a larger group there are many larger vehicles that can accommodate families of all sizes.
Online Car Hire Deals
The best way to get a good deal on a car hire is to have the car hire set up long before you ever arrive in Spain. Many of the car hire companies in Spain are online and you can search through their offerings from your home computer. Many have special offers for particular vehicles or travel times. Take a look at all their specials and compare prices between companies. Also before you make a reservation, make sure the price you are seeing includes all taxes and other fees. Those can make a big difference in the end price of a car hire. To make things easier once you arrive in Spain, you can often take care of payment for the car and set up insurance and all the other aspects you need to deal with before you ever arrive by filling out all the information online.
Being really interested in Spain, Peter Wilson was writing a large number of detailed papers on this particular subject. From his detailed writings on Spain and driving in Spain the columnist established his capability in the field.

Disaster a major motion picture ride opens today at Universal Orlando Resort
The new attraction features the first-ever use by a theme park of a high-tech virtual imagery technology called “Musion” and a special appearance by Hollywood actor Dwayne Johnson.
Disaster! replaces Earthquake and combines the best, most dramatic elements of Earthquake with an all-new storyline, top name celebrities, new “Musion” technology and all-new interactive elements. Park guests enter “Disaster Studios” and become part of the production action surrounding a “major motion picture.”
Johnson was at Universal Studios Thursday for the opening of the new attraction. In the attraction, Johnson plays a film hero who helps “save the day.”
Musion technology is a unique high-definition video projection system that transforms two-dimensional images into what seem to be live three-dimensional images. The Musion set in place at Disaster! is the first-ever use of the technology by a theme park and the largest permanent installation of that technology ever. Universal uses Musion technology to bring Disaster Studio Director “Frank Kincaid” to life as he explains the passion behind his work and recruits guests to take part in his next picture.
“The use of Musion technology in this attraction allows us to blend illusion with reality to surprise and entertain our guests,” said Mark Woodbury, president of Universal Creative for Universal Parks and Resorts. “They are amazed by the effects we have created.”
Throughout the 15-minute attraction experience, guests are filmed as extras for different elements of Disaster Studios’ newest blockbuster film, “Mutha Nature,” taking direction from Frank Kinkaid and his production assistants. In the end, they are able to see the results of their work in a tongue-in-cheek trailer for the film, starring Johnson. Disaster! A Major Motion Picture Ride…Starring You! is located in the San Fransisco area of Universal Studios Florida.
Dwayne Johnson is best known for his roles in Universal Pictures’ The Mummy Returns, The Scorpion King and, most recently, The Game Plan. Now a firmly established presence in Hollywood, he can be seen in the upcoming Warner Brother’s comedy GET SMART opening in theaters June 20, 2008. Johnson is currently filming the family comedy Witch Mountain scheduled to be released in the summer of 2009.
Universal Orlando Resort (www.universalorlando.com). With Steven Spielberg as creative consultant, Universal Orlando has created some of the world’s most innovative theme park attractions based on pop culture’s most compelling films and stories.
