I rented a small tin box called a Kia from Budget in Venezuela. The car was okay, but the best bit was that when I returned the car after about 200 km I filled the tank for 2 UKP! I then came home, picked up my car from Gatwick Long Term (5 days, 42 UKP) and filled the tank (48 UKP). Hmmmm.
As low cost airlines proliferate we are already at the stage where it can cost more to get to the airport and back than it costs to fly.
