What insurance policies are offered by No Excess Zest Car Rental?

We explain the policies offered by the company No Excess Zest Car Rental

Zest Car Rental (previously known as Economy Car Hire) prices are included in the Moneymaxim Car Hire Comparison Service

'No Excess' Zest Car Rental are a UK based rental broker who sell car hire marketed on the basis there are no excesses payable on the rental. They have a great reputation for using quality partners, which in turn drives the high satisfaction levels they receive from both users and industry experts including Which magazine.

Their standard services are very attractive to car hirers who find the high level of excesses and high cost of the excess waiver insurance offered by the car hire companies unacceptable. Its main markets are Spain, Portugal, Cyprus, Madeira, Malta, Croatia, Balearic Islands, Canary Islands, Greece and Florida.

Renters should however be aware that there are still some areas of the car which are still excluded from the standard 'No Excess Car Hire' Package as the following items would still be charged for items including:

  • Tyre and wheel damage
  • Damage to the roof
  • Damage to the underside of the vehicle
  • Damage to the windscreen or mirrors
  • Loss or damage to the car key or locks
  • Misfuelling
  • Flat battery

Renters can insure these through an add on policy from Zest Car Rental for around £4 per day. From a convenience point of view this is very simple and easy to achieve and results in great piece of mind.

Those preferring to make maximum savings can find alternative policies can be bought through the MoneyMaxim car hire insurance comparison service from around £2 a day in Europe, £2.70 a day further afield.

If you make multiple bookings or are taking a longer trip do check the annual policies from MoneyMaxim, which commence from under £33 a year.
