you rent it for the period you are going for (2 or 3 weeks)

the service is great and you will get it delivered a few days before you leave and it comes with a return addressed special delivery pre paid packet for it to be sent back

we went 17th-31st march with overnight flight back sunday 1st april

the sat nav arrived at my home by special delivery on the 15th and we posted it back the first available day which was the monday 2nd april

no problems at all and i would highly recommend hiring one [msnsmile]
