We had a great experience renting a car from NovaCarHire in at the Shannon Airport in April 2011. The car was immaculate, it was diesel fuel (which was very cost effective), and the gentleman that picked us up at the airport, to transport us at the airport to and from the rental office was vert helpful and friendly. When booking the car online, the web folks got back to me immediately when I had a few questions prior to arrival. Your company came highly recommended by a friend and I can see why. Thank you for your service.
