It is difficult isn't it? I have found the right vehicle in a few placesm including that avis one, but it keeps saying it is not available for the week i want, which is half term at whit week, so i think they must only have one and it is already booked!
thanks anyway, and i amn starting to fel the bruising from the fall now too : (((

Enterprise have got 2 bases in Bolton. I've just tried a mock booking for an MPV in May. I had no problem in finding a 'Toyota Previa or similar' (automatic, 7-seater) at �448.43 (inc VAT) for 7 days:

However, National looks cheaper. For the same trial dates, they've offered a 'VW Sharan 2.0 or similar' (automatic, 7-seater) for �391 (inc VAT) for 7 days, with collection and return from Bolton:

I can get the car I need ok with both those places, but if we travel back on the saturday from cornwall i won't get home intime for the place shutting and they are closed sunday and so i have to pay for 2 extra days!! i am allowing 6 - 8 hour tio drive rom cornwall up to bolton, does that sound right?

The AA routefinder gives the driving time from St Austell as 5 hours 55 minutes. From Newquay it's 6 hours 10 minutes. Allowing for a couple of breaks (and assuming no major hold-ups), it would probably take around 7 hours in total from either of those places.

The AA quotes 6 hours 43 minutes driving time from Penzance. Once again assuming no major delays, the total journey time would probably be around 8 hours.
