Car Leasing -- Cheaper and easier than renting

Planning to stay in the UK or Europe more than 17 days? If you're a resident of a non-EU country, you can lease a brand new car cheaper than you can rent one. And not only that, anyone in your family can drive it at no extra charge (usually about $5 a day with a rental), it is FULLY insured--collision and liability--and it comes with 24 hour road service should anything happen to the car (or to you). It's one of the best deals we have ever run across, and we use it every year. We pick up and drop off the car at Heathrow Airport. It takes less than 5 minutes to sign the papers and...we're off in our brand, spanking new automobile with air conditioning, CD player, and 8 air bags--including side curtain airbags.

Click on the Renault and Kemwel (they represent Peugeot) icons and check it out. We think you'll be surprised at how easy. reliable, and inexpensive it is.
