Car Rental Rome - FCO Airport

Rome is the capital of Italy and with a population of 2.7 million, it is the largest city in Italy population wise. With tourist attractions such as the Vatican, the Pantheon and the Coliseum, Rome is understandably Italy's most popular tourist destination. Not as well known is the fact that Rome has more parks and gardens than any other European capital. Of special interest to our car lease clients (since you will be driving a brand new car with unlimited mileage) are the many attractions on the outskirts of Rome. The ancient city of Pompeii is also a popular tourist destination.

Long Term Car Rental Rome

Auto France has been providing a unique long term car rental solution in Rome since 1991 in partnership with French auto manufacturer Peugeot. The Peugeot package by AutoFrance is a unique take on renting a car in Roma in that we provide a brand new (never driven) vehicle for every customer. We don't mean "Like new", it is quite literally from the factory floor. The vehicles are delivered to Rome airport in advance of your arrival therefore the paperwork and arrangements must be done well before showing up to grab the keys. The result is nothing short of awesome when you arrive to FCO airport and are greeted with that new car smell after simply showing your passport and signing off.

The entire process of picking up your car rental at Rome airport is actually faster and easier than a regular car rental and you won’t be badgered at the counter by a sales rep trying to squeeze insurance coverage out of you. Have a peak at our Rome airport PDF in advance, it outlines the procedures for picking up and returning vehicles to Rome FCO airport along with contact information and operating hours for the local agent.

The average duration for a long term car rental in Rome is 53 days however the contracts can range from 15-355 days in length, your choice. One thing remains constant, each contract comes with a zero deductible full insurance policy built into the price up front which allows you and your loved ones to drive fully protected not only in Italy, but throughout Europe. Lastly, the program is designed specifically for U.S residents traveling to Europe so the additional perk to your pocket is that the whole system is designed to be Tax-Free as you are not subject to VAT tax based on the contracts technical designation as being a "temporary lease" AKA French Buy Back Lease or TT Lease.

Top 3 Things To Note For Picking Up Your Peugeot Car Rental at Rome Airport:

• If you plan on driving a decent distance as soon as you retrieve your vehicle, be sure to choose the optional “full tank of fuel” during the booking process ahead of time. All vehicles come with ¼ tank of fuel by default therefore it’d be wise to fuel up in advance if you think you’ll need it.
• Be sure to provide your arrival flight information OR your estimated pickup time either during online booking process or at least the week prior to picking up your vehicle. This will ensure a smooth start to your trip as the agents will arrange their schedule for you.
• Download the location detail PDF and print it out to bring with you, you never know how your electronics will perform as soon as you enter a new country so it’ll make life less stressful if you have a hard copy.  We will also email you this PDF ahead of time in case you forget.

• Be sure to clear your vehicle of any rubbish or accumulated dirt, no need for an expensive detail - just treat it as you would like your vehicle to be treated.
• No need to fill the tank with fuel, the AutoFrance Peugeot program does not mandate any fuel policies- just make sure you can make it across the finish line without a push.
