Driving in Mexico is not for the faint of heart. Roads are rough, tolls are expensive and road signage in towns is difficult to see. In large cities, the road signage does not sync up with the Navigation system making it difficult.

Good value car rental
Good value car rental was cheaper than other options Helpful staff at pick up and drop off, good value for money, good vehicle Took almost an hour at pick up as had to wait for one way drop off to be approved even though I had booked this months in advance.
