    google "Fastcar" they're good or there's a bloke on here who rents vehicles out. I can't remember his name but it begins with "M". Have a look. He has a good rep.

    Dear Thaiza maybe Thai websites or Thai face book would work unless they have English option.

    Excellent, glad it went well.

    Do you know anyone who can rent me a decent vehicle for 2 months in the UK.
    My wife and I will be travelling around from 6th July to the 6th Sept.
    Reliability and cost are the primary consideration.

    Used cars are cheap as chips here, have you considered buying one then selling it when you leave? Short term insurance and pro rata road tax refund. Or search carrentals.co.uk will give you a good idea of costs.

    Yup, we thought about it was a bit worried about reliability and then not being able to sell it on before we left.

    At least with rental and unlimited mileage there's less to worry about. We'll be clocking up a lot of miles.
    I also want something reasonably comfortable as I have a few little health issues.
    We'll see.

    Yeah, rental at around £100 per week and peace of mind.
