Damage

What products reduce the amount I have to pay if the vehicle is damaged during the rental?
If you have Damage Waiver (CDW) and the vehicle, keys, any accessories or any vehicle documents are damaged, the amount you have to pay for the damage will be reduced to no more than the excess stated on your rental agreement meaning you will pay for the cost of repair or replacement plus a damage processing fee of Euro 54.70 (VAT and airport surcharges included) or the excess, whichever is less. 

It is agreed that the Waiverable Excess (CDW) will be applied to every single damage found on the vehicle which is clearly identified at check-in and that is not related to any other pre-existing damage. In case of multiple damages related to the same event, customer responsibility will be limited to the amount quoted in the Rental Agreement.

If you can show the damage was less than we said, we will refund you the difference.

The coverage of the windscreen and the windows, as well as the tyres, is excluded.
Any limitation or exclusion of liability (CDW) is not effective and in any case expires for damage caused voluntarily or due to negligence, as well as for damage to the interior of the vehicle, for damage caused to the roof (caused by lack of assessment of the height of the vehicle and of the objects protruding or overhanging the roof), for damage caused to the clutch kit, for damage caused by engine over-revving, for damage or theft of tyres and/or rims, for damage caused to the underbody.
