Two things about the hire deal though, from a well-known firm down the back here which I have used many times over the last thirty or so years (my name produced my address on their computer). If one got back after closing time one had to pay for a whole extra day - the fact that the van was there first thing next morning counted for nothing, nice little earner. The other thing was that they told one to leave it in a narrow, busyish road and drop the keys in through the slot, at the same time saying that one was responsible for it until it was back in their hands next morning. Suppose a bus or van or drunk graunched the thing during the night? One could end up feeling very resentful.
Liked the van though. Awful on the way up to speed, if brisk, but then quite nice with a sympathetic foot... and impressively frugal.
