I just look at the total cost for the hire period, as noted earlier I end up paying €100/120 a week, in my book still good value and completely stress and hassle free.
They do have a cap on the cost, so if you come for four weeks as we tend to it does lower the average weekly cost.
Although you can decide to have no fully comprehensive cover with the car hire company and if you wish buy your insurance through someone like insurance4hire car or have no comprehensive cover and take any claim on the chin

No mention of wing mirrors on that list, I can tell you from experience that Solmar - before they went bust - charged 110 euros if you scratched one. Insurance4carhire covered it in full within 4 weeks, easy to claim for.

Full insurance with the car hire companies varies considerably, range typically between 5 and 9 euros per day, but as John says there is usually a maximum cap on this - you need to check each company's terms carefully.

Personally, I use Dickmans as a norm and book via Carhireinspain.com, no issues at all with them in over 10 years, the time I used Solmar, against by wishes, was when Dickmans could not provide the vehicle needed so I had to go elsewhere.
