Car Hire companies; As prices can very much depend on age and length of hire we can't recommend on price. Best to rent from the airport. Also by using the comparison sites you don't always know which car hire company you are using.

Ones to avoid: Northgate.

Recommendations to use: any of the large companies like Hertz, Eurocar, Avis, Enterprise etc. and also the family owned companies who usually give good service like

INSURANCE: many hire companies suggest taking out excess damage polices that cover you for all costs. However you may find the companies that specialise in this a better option. You can get single rates or annual rates. Here's a selection:
