Best Answer

Before you drive your hire car away a member of staff should show you the car and point out any damage or wear and tear that is already on the car. If they don't offer to do so insist they do.

During this inspection inform the member of staff that you will film the inspection on your cell phone. They should not object, if they do inform them that this will not only protect you but them.

Be sure to point out, film and take pictures of any damage or marks on the car. Also film the member of staff verbally agreeing that this damage already exists.
