Saw this linked elsewhere and thought I'd share it with you folks. Basically - instead of renting a car, you lease it. Leasing is considerably cheaper than renting and there are plenty of other cool perks too. The catch? You have to lease for 17 days or longer. Full story here.

Aussie friends who live in the UK have used this. They picked up a brand new Renault Megane (3ok on the clock) in Calais and travelled round Europe in it for 40 odd days and said it was very cheap.
