Just booked a car yesterday through www.spanish-airport-guide.com and I've got a focus c-max diesel for £88. they are a broker and the car is from centauro. We are going from the 28th Sep to 5th Oct, so I'll let you know how it goes when we get back.
I checked Centauro's web site and they wanted €188 for the same car? So even with the obligatory "pick up full-return empty" scam it's still a great deal.
4 Sleeps to go!!
Yep £88 for 7 days. Unless there are any hidden charges, but I've checked the small print and there doesn't seem to be. Although I did pay another £33 pound for insurance to cover my excess but that was optional and I would have paid that anyway whoever we'd got a car from. And like I say going directly through Centauro came in at €188.

Just got back, thought I'd update. It was £88 with no hidden charges. I had to pay a deposit for the full tank but I got told if I brought it back full I'd get it back and I did. So full marks all round. Car was a bit gutless though but I ain't complaining for that price.

in june 2008 giacomo ferreti, the italian owner of that cala conta house
got a 12000 euro fine and should have demolished platforms, stairs and terrace
(for which the pre-owner of the house had a 15-year-licence)
in a public zone ...
since 1993 (!) the authorities want him to do this - nothing happened,
now the authorities want a prison sentence for him ...

Demolition Time
A court in Palma has ruled a house in Cala Conta, part of which was built
on coastal land, will have to be demolished.
However, the owner will not be fined, and if he carries out the work,
the case will be closed.
The public prosecution team had originally demanded the Italian owner of the house
be fined for the staircase, terrace, and launch-pad at the foot of his house
on the cliffs overlooking Cala Conta.
The installations had originally been built by the former owner in 1980,
with the relevant permission from the Town Hall of San Jose.
However, the concession granted only lasted 15 years and was not transferable,
and so when the house was eventually sold to the current owner
the constructions became illegal.
Additionally the new owner failed to ask for an extension to the concession,
which has now expired, and will ensure they are to be demolished.
The huge mansion has housed many famous faces over the years,
including that of Elle McPherson over various summers.

I honestly can not recommend renting a car highly enough. did it last year and loved exploring! watch out on hiring one and read the small print. There are a lot of add ons (50 euros for petrol etc) which is fine as long as you are prepared.
We hired a car for a day and went to es cubells, cala d'hort, cala tarida etc couldn't have done it without a map. in fact didn't get time to go up north even with the map because we kept getting lost and I've been to Ibiza lots of times and done plenty of research so always use a map if looking for specific things. Don't trust the Tom Tom actually don't pay the extra for it. Also we took the car to a VERY busy night in amnesia During peak peak season. I'd searched the net and found that people on this site advised against it. Well it was very simple to get there from the hotel practically 2 roads, very few other cars were on the road and we got given a parking space right outside the entrance, parking was free and car was intact on exit
Also we drove around for miles and miles we had a clio petrol was 10 euros
