Perfect solution.

Dealing with a family bereavement when the clutch went on my car. Found rent-a-car online and made my booking without any problems whatsoever, in fact even felt I had to phone..as it turns out Sarah to double check my booking and details as it was so easy to book a car of my choice (in fact made a couple of bookings over the period and took different vehicles of my choice) at the best prices around too. No issues at all. Car picked up at time of my convenience and dropped off the same. Must admit it’s a weight off my mind knowing this service is so local and easy as I rely on my car so much.

A Very Friendly and Terrific Service!

Sarah and Steve, who run the rentals at VWFS made us extremely welcome, with coffee and hot chocolate to keep out the cold—snow had begun falling as our London KX train arrived into Durham. They are lovely people and gave us a really terrific, top-notch service with no fuss. Our rental Polo was new, good to drive, and gave us no problems during our four-day hire, despite the sub-zero temperatures! We recommend them highly!!!

Excellent, Friendly Service Once Again!

This is the second time that I have used this firm and once again I have received excellent service. Sarah's help and efficiency during what unexpectedly turned out to be quite a lengthy period of car hire,where I was constantly having to extend the rental(daily in some instances),was invaluable.Highly recommend this firm.

First Class Service

What a great service I have had recently from all the team at the Durham branch.
I have been renting a car for a few months whilst my company car was on order.
Our company have an account with Enterprise and a car was initially ordered for me through the company.
Shocking service as they didnt even turn up with a car when it was booked in. I contacted your Durham branch and sorted with in minutes nothing was any trouble plus the price was cheaper too.
Plus the coffee served from the cafe is really good!!
Well done Sarah and the rest of the guys I dealt with.

Good hire choice.

My company hired me the car on the morning and I picked it up in the afternoon.

The gentleman that handed me the keys was spot on and even helped me connect my phone to the car.

From my initial phone enquiry to going to the sales room to make the application it was all very straight forward. There was very little I needed to do. The sales advisor went through the application process on the computer filling in relevant details. I made the payment and that was it. I was made to feel very comfortable and relaxed. Overall a very pleasurable experience. I kept on extending my rental period which was no trouble to them. The prices quoted were very reasonable. I would definitely go back if fact I wouldn’t go anywhere else

Excellent car hire

Excellent from start to finish, friendly helpful staff and very reasonable rates.
Car was immaculate, reliable and economical.
Unlike many other car hire companies, they provided the owners handbook which we found very useful. Great to be able to hire a car with very good sat nav installed.
Would definitely use Pullman again

First time we have hired a car from this company and would definitely use them again. Staff were really helpful answering our questions prior to making the booking. Staff went the extra mile to connect my phone to the car due to technical issues. Car was lovely to drive and got us to our intended destination.
