Europcar is wishing all its customers a ‘Happy New Year’ by offering a special discount for the whole of January.

To help beat the post-Christmas blues, Europcar is launching its own January Sale by offering a discount of 15% off any rental of 3 days or more. This makes car rental the ideal treat to help ease people into the New Year.

Marie Barry, managing director for Europcar UK, comments:

"At Europcar, we recognise that post-Christmas can be a depressing time. This offer is just one way to help cheer our customers up.

"Why not take advantage by renting a luxury car and going away for a long weekend? There’s nothing better than leaving your car at home and swapping it for a plusher model, even if it is just for a short time!

"Or, why not rent an MPV – not to take the kids away but to create more room for all the bargains at the January sales!"
