Have a look at Whipcar - not sure how it compares to other car hire but may be worth a look.
Yes, I was going to say the same thing.
I have part-way joined. I haven't used them yet, but a friend has and he's also been with Streetcar/ZipCar/Avis and he thinks Whipcar are good.
The bloke he hired a car from told my friend that he hired out his car often enough, that his own motoring came for free! It seems to make sense all round.
I do suspect how Whipcar compare with other car hire: cheaper, because you'd be hiring from local residents who bought a car primarily for their own use and not on which to earn a return, as ZipCar has.
We've used Practical - just next to the Shell garage on Park Road for over 10 years. Possibly not the cheapest but we've found them really great to deal with and we hire a car at least 4 or 5 times a year. They don't rip you off if you scratch the car either, you'll get charged but you won't lose your whole deposit. Carla manages the office - tell her I sent you if you use them!

We use Enterprise all the time. They could not be more helpful, efficient and user friendly. By that I mean that if you fill up with petrol and don't use it they remember and reward you next time you hire. They are American owned and I can not recomend them more highly.
From our Facebook page:
Diane Sewell Car3000 very good . Call them for a better deal
I assume by Car3000 they mean Carhire 3000 which is a broker for the main hire car companies (Avis, Hertz, etc) rather than independent companies.
I tend to use them when hiring cars for work and find them good but never used them in the UK.
