Poměr cena/výkon úplně top, vřele doporučuji. Obsloužil nás sympatický personál, všechno proběhlo bez problémů, prodloužili jsme si půjčení auta o dva dny, všecho rychle zařídili a ta cena byla fakt super. Auto se nám během týdne nijak nekazilo, jezdilo se jedna báseň na islandské poměry :D

They switched me to a different car so I’m actually reviewing a Toyota ProAce. It was a very nice car in great condition, priced fairly, and the MyCar company had phenomenal customer service. Guide to Iceland also has very friendly representatives.
