My husband (who is French) and I will be travelling throughout France in August. We wish to rent a convertible in Paris and drop it off in Marseille. Unfortunately, we are having some trouble finding a rental agency in Paris that carries convertibles- does anyone have any suggestions? We have already tried AutoEurope, Hertz and EuropCar.<BR>Thank you in advance.

Lease or buy a Renault convertible and sell it back when your done.

The previous poster is talking about the Renault lease program. Here is their web site <BR><BR>http://www.renaultusa.com/ <BR><BR>It depends on how long you are staying in France as this is only for longer rentals (17 day min)<BR><BR>You may also consider europecar prestige<BR><BR>http://www.europcar.fr/particulier/prestige/ligne.htm<BR><BR>They have a location in Paris but they do not show one in Marseille. I am not sure if you can drop the prestige cars off at the normal Europecar locations.<BR><BR>There is also Renault Rent for short term rentals:<BR><BR>http://www.renault-rent.com

Thanks for the suggestion about the Renault TT lease- but it is substantially more expensive than the other Renault Meganes that we have rented with AutoEurope. Since we are only travelling for 17 days, the value isn't really there.

Have a look at the autoeurope site. I chose 2 weeks in mid July and got all kinds of convertible results. Since you have specific requirements you should phone and talk to them... they have an 800 number...
