A spokesperson for Holiday Autos commented:

'Whether you're looking for an adventure holiday or just the freedom to reach the nicest beaches, shops or tourist attractions while you're away, we know that renting a car is the best way to get the most out of an escape later in the year.

'It looks like more young travellers are booking their getaways early; so now's the time for them to get on-board with the deals we have for collections up until next March. Up to 40% off in Mallorca is a massive discount and the island is amazing to explore by car - any time of year.'
