Rally Wrc Monte Carlo 2017

Best way to ensure winter tyres on your hire car?

Hiring from Lyon. I guess try and do the booking over the phone and specify?

This time I can't help. We were always with our own car.

You can try to rent the car in Grenoble, that is about the only place where you will have winter tyres.

Andolfi instead Betti in 124 Abarth RGT.

We rent a car with snow tyres at Marseille Airport from Sixt for an extra 88 euros...And is only 175 km from Gap

88 Euro extra for winter tyres? They aren't greedy at all...

If you are in the need...Imagine the cost for chains was 64e...At least Marseille is in the middle of Gap - Monte Carlo and airtickets are quite cheap from Greece

However I wouldn´t hesitate going despite hot weather... :)

Please tell us, whether the plan worked.

I reserved cars with winter tyres a couple of times from Nice Airport. They were always confirmed. But when I arrived it was the same story every time: Sorry, our mistake. But we don't have winter tyres right now. But we give you snow chains . . .
