Dislike: When we arrived in Vienna, we were told that no Citroen C4 Picasso was available: we had chosen this car because of its large luggage capacity. There are four of us, with 3 large suitcases plus carry-ons. We were offered a Mercedes A class as an alternative, and then a B class, which we went up and inspected, but neither had sufficient luggage space. We were not prepared to pay substantially extra to upgrade to a 7 seater people carrier. Eventually the Hertz agent remembered that he had a BMW Series 2 Grand Tourer available, which proved to be excellent. However he said he was unable to give us a free upgrade, so after friendly attempts to persuade him, we reluctantly accepted the extra charge (42 euros + VAT).
Not the car we ordered
