A Warm Welcome to the new-style Premier Car Hire. It's now more than 18 years since Irene Morrison, still our Managing Director today, set-up one of the United Kingdom's first independant car hire brokers.

At Premier, we live and breathe car hire. We do one thing. We do it perfectly, every time.

In a fast-changing and demanding world of low-cost aviation, we want to become your preferred car hire partner wherever your travels take you. We don't apply cancellation charges and instead of giving you grief when you need to change something, you'll find we're here ready to help when you suddenly need to reorganise your travel plans.

Our car hire vehicles at Dublin South are rented for use on the public highways of Ireland. They cannot be used off-road. Although a very rare ocurrance, we'd like you to be aware that damage to the underside of the car hire vehicle, frequently caused by negligent driving or off-road use at Dublin South (we have had occasion to have to lift car hire vehicles out of dried-up river beds!) is your responsibility. Drunk driving a hire car is considered negligent use.
Traffic fines.

If you park up the car hire vehicle with personal items inside and, as a consequence, the glass or locks are damaged in an attempt to steal your personal effects, you will be responsible for the associated repair costs to the car hire vehicle. We strongly recommend that you park the vehicle in supervised car parks/garages in the major cities and never leave any personal item inside the car hire vehicle.

Buy-out of the Vehicle's Insurance Excess
The car hire vehicles at Dublin South are sold with an insurance excess.

This option, depending on the car hire vehicle selected, costs between EUR 20.00 and EUR 20.00 per per day. You do not need to prebook insurance excess buy-out, simply decide and pay locally on arrival at the car hire station in Dublin South when you arrive in Ireland.
Purchasing insurance excess buy-out is not a "licence to kill" and you will still be responsible for items like tyre, wheel, glasss or damage to the underside of the car hire vehicle. The car hire company may still require you to leave a credit card imprint to cover extensions to your car hire contract or traffic fines. See our section What's Not Included for further details.
