I am trying to find a car rental company in Murcia or Alicante airports that has cars for disabled people. I am having no luck so far.

I had my right leg amputated a couple of months ago.

    Hi @Gordo1 and a warm welcome to the community from me!

    I'm not able to suggest anything relevant unfortunately as this is not something I am familiar with, I've googled too but could not find anything.

    I'm going to change the title of your post so hopefully if any of our members has used a car rental company in those airports will see it and be able to suggest something, hope thats okay!

    It's lovely to have you here and I hope you enjoy your time on the community😊

    Hello @Gordo1, and a very warm welcome to you to the community.

    I cannot personally recommend any but there is 'All in Autos' who have cars with wheelchair accessible options, they're on 0034 611 322 410 - I do not know though if they're for disabled drivers specifically.

    There's also Alicante Transfers (not car rental just transfers but 'disability friendly' ) in case they can help for any transfers only, if needed, they're on 0034 670 368 849.

    I’ve a few contacts and on groups (worldwide) and have put a message on my Spanish/Murcia group who are asking around. If they come back to me I'll let you know straight away.

    They've just come back to me with Murcia Car and Golf Hire they're on 0034 711 05 68 63 or 07957 450 322. It looks to me as if they're long term hire only but might be worth checking out (I hope these are not a 'goosechase').

    All the very best to you and I hope you find one that's suitable to hire from. Take good care.

    @Gordo1, Hi, several have come back to me but I'd be surprised if they all have cars specifically adapted for disabled use. I'll give you their numbers anyway, just in case you want to check.

    Higgs Car Hire 07770 984 153 vistadrivespain@gmail.com

    Torro Cars, Murcia 0034 673 77 7989

    Alicante Drive, Lee Kelly, 0034 678 27 6839 I've messaged Lee he's not got any specifically adapted currently. He's messaged back again to say he thinks his cars would be suitable but not guaranteed. Might be worth a call - very helpful. These and Murcia Car and Golf Hire several recommending them both.

    @Gordo1 A very helpful chaps come back to me from Alicante. He's suggested Age, Spain they're for English speakers and advise on all sorts and are on 0034 932 2097 41 open Tues to Thurs 1100 to 1300 (Spanish time).

    And if you are ex- Services, the Royal British Legion in Alicante on 0808 802 8080 open 7 days a week from 0800 to 2000hrs.

    IF you manage to get something suitable sorted, and didn’t mind getting me know, that would be great as I can go back to let them all know for their future reference but not the end of the world if not. Good luck in your search.
