Woods Car Rental????

Just curious if anyone here has ever used Woods Car Rental company or heard of it?
http://www.woods.co.uk/

We found out about them when we booked our B&B in Swansea for our trip in October! But, never having heard of them before, makes us a little leary.

They have a location in Swansea, which is where we will be picking up a car and we can drop it off at another location at the end of our trip. On past trips, we have used Hertz. They also have a location in Swansea and will let us drop off at another location. BUT, the price for Woods was better!

Thanks so much in advance!

It's been six years, but I had a good experience with them in 1998. Picked up at Stansted and returned to Heathrow two days later. They were the onlycost-effective company that could meet our needs for this. They weren't exactly "on" the (Stansted) airport back then. Don't know about now.

Best wishes,

Rex

We have used them a few times in the past but it was quite a while ago. Picked up and dropped off at Heathrow. They were most accommodating and the car was fine.

Thank-you to you too Tedgale!!!!

As I said in my original post, we usually go with Hertz, but, once, on another trip, tried another company and we were not happy at all! Not only was the car filthy when we picked it up, but, they never reimbursed us, like they said, for returning it with a full tank of gas!!!
