Pros:
The staff was nice but didnt explain much. I felt rushed. Like they want to just be done with me and out of there way.Cons:
Slowed down and explain all the extras (and cost) that are available like the insurance and they toll plate so I don't need to use mine. Slow down when reviewing the car to make sure nothing is missed (scratches or leave of dirt in the car)One location in Elgin
