PCAR and LDAR options in birmingham UK

Hi All,

I've tried calling the location and doing a bit of a search but does anyone here know what the range of PDAR and LDAR options are from BHX? I assume it's a big enough location that there might be decent upgrade options available (are S Classes available from this location?). Any pointers are appreciated.

Thanks

BHX is not that big, really - certainly nothing compared to LHR.

I have only rented from there once, when I got upgraded from a D class Octavia into a Discovery... by the time I came to collect it I was able to swap into an F class Mercedes B Class. There was an S-Class at the airport, though I don't know if it was a regular there.

So while BHX isn't exactly tiny, it's not really an industrial scale operation either and you'll probably struggle to get upgraded - or indeed might be upgraded far beyond your base booking.

So the usual haphazard scenario in the UK!

Thanks for for the info nevertheless Cymro.

If it helps, LHR is mostly Audi A4s, Mercedes C-Classes and Mercedes E-Classes in luxury, with a few A5s and CLSs as well.

I wouldn't be expecting any upgrades from those categories. If you book such a category, expect to receive categoru booked

Hi All,

Just to report back. I ended up getting a Merc E Class. There was an S Class but it was already booked so it wasn't available. There appeared to be very few high end options at that location. Notably helpful/friendly staff though.
