In order to establish the risk level at the rental moment for the clients between 18 and 21 years old, the client will deposit a double guarantee in regards to the normal one perceived for the type of car he or she is renting. The deposited guarantee will also be double for drivers that have a driver license under 1 year.
For the age limit +21, the conditions are the usual ones: rental price/day, guarantee shown in section “Car details” and possibility to choose SCDW.
A tax of 10 EUR/rent is applicable for a second additional driver.

Extra Hours, or the fee for dropping off the car during the non-working hours, between 18:00 - 22:00 and 07:00 - 09:00 is calculated with 10 euros for car pick-off and 10 euros for car drop-off. Furthermore for car pick-off and drop-off in between 22:00 - 07:00 will be perceived a fee of 20 euros.

In case the car is dropped-off with a delay of maximum 2 hours, there is not calculated any additional fee; for more than a 2 hours delay, it is calculated a fee equivalent to 100% of the daily rental value.
For on-line payments, the system calculates automatically these delays depending on the selected hours (ex. Pick-up at 8.00, drop-off at 10.30 => delay cost of 100% from the daily rental value.
If the car is dropped off dirty/unwashed exterior-interior, it will be charged from the client warranty, even if the client opted for SCDW, the sum of 50 RON.And if, in the conditions due to car’s dirty state, we can’t identify destructions (hits, scratches, tapestry stains etc.), the warranty will be withheld until they are identified correctly.
