- Well… What sizes do you have?
- Compact, medium sizes and SUV’s are available. Sedans, trucks and vans.
- I’m travelling with my family: my wife and a little son. I guess a small car for 3 passengers will do. And can I have it in black colour?

- All right. What about the fuel?
- The tank is full. And you must return the car with a full tank of fuel too.
- I see. No problem. That’s quite fair. So how can I pay? And what is a car rental deposit?
- We take credit cards only, so we don’t need any cash deposits. Now, please, fill in this form. In case of delays or any problems, please call at this number. If you are late you’ll be charged every day’s rental. But I’m sure you won’t lose your way thanks to GPS navigation. Now you can pick up the car from our garage. Here are the car keys.
