Was BBC's Top Gear right about car hire in Cyprus?

Of course not, the BBC hit show was more about entertainment than factual representation of the car hire market in Cyprus, whilst the presenters displayed a range of rental car types all available on the island of Cyprus, their antics and suggested prices points were far from a fair reflection of the wider market. Yes you can rent a jeep in Cyprus (it’s highly recommended for the more adventurous) and yes you can rent an economy car for very low prices and of course, convertibles are popular, but the suggestion that Cyprus rental cars are old and outdated couldn’t be further from the truth.

With trusted rental agents such as Avis, Hertz, Thrifty and Budget all well represented across the island and with significant fleets from both Paphos and Larnaca Airports, the idea of a low rent, run-down rental car is far from the truth. Sure, there are local rental agents offering cheap daily rentals around towns aimed at tourists, but the majority of rental cars are arranged from the airports on arrival and offer a very professional service, much like you would expect in any holiday destination.
