Have you ever seen a mysterious red license plate on a French car and wondered what it meant? Was the driver a diplomat? A military officer? A French James Bond saving the world from an evil genius?
No, the car was from the French Buyback Lease program. If you need to rent a car in Europe for more than a few weeks, this may the way to go. You get a brand new car with 100% insurance for less than the price of a normal rental.

Keith: Thanks for writing about such practical advice for travellers in France.
Thanks, I’m glad you liked it. The long-term rental program is great, and a real value versus standard rentals.
