Who Europcar suits
Europcar suits people who want to hire from a company that sells its own cars, with desks at UK airports and stations.
Hiring direct means you deal with one company. If you would rather search many rental companies in one go, a broker does that.
Your price depends on your dates, where you pick up and the driver's age. Younger drivers often pay more.
Excess is the amount you pay towards damage or theft before the rental company's own cover starts. Standalone excess insurance pays you back that amount, and it is usually cheaper than the excess cover sold at the desk.
