We were not very clear about the language, if the insurance was included in the price when we hired it on the internet, because the employee told us that apart from the money we thought we had to pay, insurance was not included.

Easy Rental

No issues. great location close to the train station. had hoped for something more similar to the vw up (i.e. easier on fuel) but probably needed the extra power to climb all of those mountains.
