Booked an X3 but got a Land Rover Discovery Sport, a brand new car with only 1600 miles on it… But the air conditioning was broken! Picked it up on a Sunday and no one could fix it, and there were no other cars to switch to. We had to drive north on the highway with the windows down. Sigh… It's better to choose a big company! The rental company only cares about taking your money and nothing else. Make sure to be well-prepared!
