Aug 2016
Pros:
Smooth registration that was quick and informative. The education about Dartford Crossing toll procedures was a life saver! The car was immaculate and got fantastic gas mileage! Strongly advise American drivers to get as small a car as possible if you're going to spend any time on rural roads! Returning the vehicle was equally smooth and efficient! Much easier driving from Canterbury than London!8.0 Very good
