Yes. I have WMC.
I want the cheapest, and a mid range. I would take something nice, but it seems to me they all are many times more expensive.
Automatic

Yes. besides VAT which tourists don't pay and I (we) assume every quote request here for TLV is a tourist unless otherwise noted.
Thank you, I appreciate your answers.

I double checked the prices. I doubt you'll get a price cheaper than @Deals Fan, he is giving it you at close to cost.

just did hotwire and got a good deal ($220) for a full size (impala) from National Rent-a-car from Ben-Gurion for 12 days.
1) any issues with them if i have a WmC (Sapphire), or is the price hotwire gives going to be the price?
2) also, how much is a gps per day, and is the one they give better than a garmin with israel maps loaded?

thx!

Hotwire's prices many times aren't honored by the location in addition to the fact that you MUST add CDW, TP and TPPD insurance. (CDW & TP may be covered by WMC if you have one.)

Someone just recently posted how he got screwed up with using EuropCar in TLV by booking with one of the US websites. (Sorry too lazy to search right now on my mobile)

Don't you have to pay "CDW, TP and TPPD insurance." (whatever TP, TPPD stand for) either way, whomever you book with?  Besides for the WMC factor...

Also, you can choose which company to book with, they usually quote prices from reputable companies like Avis, Sixt, Budget, etc etc.  Don't they honor?
Yes, but with an agent it's included in the price. TP= Theft Protection, TPPD= Liability

Europcar is also a reliable company elsewhere in the world. In Israel ALL companies play with their own set of rules because they are franchises and will not honor reservations if they aren't making enough $.
So you mean, the price(s) you quote(d), are WYSIWYG, not a penny more charged?  No taxes, airport fees, CDW etc etc?
Yes. besides VAT which tourists don't pay and I (we) assume every quote request here for TLV is a tourist unless otherwise noted.

Dont count on the rental. Have back up.
Clients of mine called me from the airport to make them a reservation because they don't accept Hotwire or Priceline...

Hi all, I'm looking for a full-size rental for 8 days in February (2/18 - 2/26). I booked a reservation with EuropCar through Expedia for a standard van at $127 for the 8 days.  After reading many of the posts in this forum, I'm a bit nervous about relying on this reservation.  I have the Sapphire preferred world mastercard which apparently can help with CDW insurance. 

Anyone have any ideas?  Should I rely on europcar or go a different route?  I'm traveling with a 2 yr old and will need a car seat.  Not sure if that changes much.  Thanks.
