3. Reserved vehicle
The rental will not necessarily be for a specific vehicle (brand, model, colour, features, etc.) but rather for a vehicle from a group of vehicles with similar technical and comfort characteristics, which will be specified when entering into the rental contract, with the exception of “guaranteed model” vehicles that, in the event of no availability, will be replaced with a model of the same or better characteristics.
The reserved vehicle will be available for a maximum of 3 hours according to reservation. After that time, availability is not confirmed.
4. Rental term
Rentals are calculated for periods of 24 hours, counted from the exact time when the Customer has rented the vehicle until the vehicle is received by NIZA CARS.
The Customer is given a 1 hour grace period for returning the vehicle and a 2 hour grace period when contracting Star Insurance. Return of the vehicle more than 60 minutes after expiry of the agreed rental period will incur a fee of 1 additional day at the current rate.
The term of the contract will be specified within the text thereof, including the location, time and date of collection and the location, time and date of return.
If the Customer decides to end the rental prior to the date indicated in the rental Contract, the Customer will not be entitled to a refund of the amount corresponding to the days on which neither the vehicle nor the contracted extras were enjoyed.
The maximum rental period will be 30 days, unless expressly authorised by NIZA CARS, which reserves the right to extend this period under special terms and conditions.
Return of the vehicle on a date and at a time later than those agreed in the Contract will entitle NIZA CARS to charge the Customer for the rental amount corresponding to the additional days at the rate in effect at said time due to late return.
NIZA CARS reserves the right to bring any legal action deemed necessary in the event that the vehicle disappears or is not returned on the day and at the time agreed in the rental contract.
5. Contract extension
The Customer is required to return the vehicle on the date and at the time agreed in the previous clause. Should the Customer wish to extend the rental period, they must contact the office of NIZA CARS to sign an extension when expressly authorised by NIZA CARS. No contract can be extended by telephone or any other means of electronic communication. If no vehicles are available or for any other reason, the Customer will be required to return the vehicle on the date, at the time and at the branch office agreed. Otherwise, NIZA CARS reserves the right to bring any legal action deemed necessary.
Unilateral extension of the Contract term by the Customer will also be considered as unauthorised use of the vehicle for the purposes of customer liability regarding any damage incurred by the vehicle.In such cases, in addition to the rental amount corresponding to the additional days for delay in return, NIZA CARS will be entitled to charge the customer the cost of possible legal actions for the recovery of the vehicle.
Under no circumstances will the amount paid as a deposit be used for a contract extension. Hence, if an extension is applied to the Contract, the Customer will be required to make an additional payment for said extension resulting from application of the current rate at the time.
Depending on the initial terms and conditions of the Contract, it may be necessary to draw up a new rental contract when requesting an extension, in which case the original contract will be considered as expired. Said new contract will require payment for the rental according to the rates in effect at such time, as well as payment of a new deposit (see Section 7 - “Payment methods and terms” of this document).

The amount of the fee charged to the Customer for damage caused to the vehicle in the event of an accident will be calculated according to the appraisal made by the external expert service used by NIZA CARS.

Furthermore, NIZA CARS reserves the right to claim payment for hidden damages or defects that may be discovered subsequently or appear when repairing the vehicle.
At any event, the Customer will be liable for all costs stemming from the loss or damage of tools, keys, accessories, equipment, vehicle interiors, vehicle chassis, vehicle roof and problems stemming from refuelling errors.
In the event that any technical modifications are made or any characteristics of the vehicle are altered, including the interior and/or exterior appearance of the vehicle, the Customer will be liable for the costs incurred in returning the vehicle to its original condition and an amount in compensation for the days that the vehicle is unavailable while being returned to its original condition.
NIZA CARS also reserves the right to charge compensation to the Customer for lost profits owing to unavailability of the vehicle due to the damage incurred or return of the vehicle to its original condition. Said compensation will be calculated on the number of days needed for repair of the vehicle and/or return of the vehicle to its original condition, as defined by the external expert service used by NIZA CARS or, after completing the repair, counting one day per effective day of unavailability and using the daily rental rate contracted by the Customer multiplied by the number of days the vehicle was unavailable to quantify the amount of compensation.
At any event, the maximum liability for the Customer will be the market value of the vehicle based on the maximum price established in the Ganvam guide valid at the time of the accident.
The costs incurred as a result of vehicle repairs and/or return of the vehicle to its original condition will be deducted from the deposit. If the cost of repair is higher than the deposit, an additional charge will be made to the Customer’s card or a letter will be sent to the Customer claiming payment of an amount calculated in accordance with the above.
