Wow, I can't believe I'm writing the first review on Record Rent a Car! I'm sure that others must have had great experiences with these guys as I have a number of times!
I've only used these from the Malaga airport but believe that they operate all over Spain. My parents have also used this company and picked up a car from Barcelona and dropped it off at Alicati without any hassles.....
Anyhows, here is my last experience with Record Rent a Car!
I decided to go for a short break (5 days) to the Costa Del Sol to stay at my parents villa. My first port of call was a website named 'carjet.co.uk' - a websiteI have used in the past and have always been very reasonably priced.
I opted for a pickup from Malaga and drop off in Malaga. as there was only 2 of us we decided on a Compact car with Air Conditioning. The Ford Ka was priced at 105 Euros so we went for that.
On arrival at Malaga, we went downstairs to where the car rentals are. The Record stand only had a queue of 2/3 people, whilst others such as Avis had a queue of 10/15 deep! The staff at the stand were most helpful and as our Ford Ka was not ready for pick up they had already organised us a free upgrade! We were now getting a Peugot 307!. After signing a few forms and paying for the car, off we were in the 307 to the villa!
Drop off was really easy, all we needed to do was to fill the car with petrol and pass the keys through to the staff at departures (the car had to be parked in a Record Rent a Car bay).
So that was that, overall - the service was great, free upgrade and very helpful staff. I highly recommend this company especially if you would like to skip the queues!
Hope you have enjoyed this review as much as I enjoyed writing it :)
P.S - no prices are quoted as I believe that prioces change throughout the year. Also I believe that Record Rent a Car only operate in Spain.

A belated welcome to Ciao! A "prospective buyer" might also wish to know what sizes of vehicles are available - (ie. does it cater for a "larger family group" consisting of (and luggage, travelcot, etc) or the same plus elderly parents who do not wish to drive) - and what about minibuses (I recently hired a 17-seater to take 10 of us from Birmingham to Cornwall - the above grouping and another couple). - - - I hope you enjoy it here at Ciao, and look forward to reading many more of your reviews . . . - ♥♥ -.................................................................................................... ~ ♥ ~ jes ≈≈≈≈{; -)-{{::::: |||||< ♥♥

I've never heard of them but then again I haveb't been to Spain. Sounds like a good company though - renting cars can be a little iffy at times.
