Enjoy the Luxury of an Executive Car Hire
Why not think about an executive car hire for your next holiday. The majority of people still only have one holiday a year, so how about making it extra special by treating yourself to something more luxurious than usual? Whether you are staying in the most expensive hotel, or hiring a villa by the sea, it’s still very handy to have your very executive car hire, so that you are not having to rely on local transport, an executive car hire would be the ideal solution.
Executive car hire can be arranged very easily through our online search engine. All you need to do is to enter all your details, date and place of arrival and the location where you would like to collect the car and the site will do the rest. It will do a comprehensive search through a number of companies and come up with the best deals, which will save you having to go from one website to another. Once the search is completed, you will have a variety of executive cars for hire to choose from at very competitive prices.
You can then make your choice, reserve and pay for the car online and it will then be ready and waiting for you when you arrive at your destination. No forms to be filled out, as it will all have been done. If you prefer, you can arrange for your executive car to be delivered to you at your accommodation. Some companies will even arrange for your very own chauffeur, for that extra bit of luxury.
If you are not staying in one location, it will be possible to collect the car on arrival and then drop it off elsewhere, if this is more convenient. Executive car hire gives you that extra freedom of being able to fully explore the surrounding area and further a field, instead of having to spend your entire holiday in one place. An executive car hire will allow you to explore and there are still many towns and villages that have remained free from mass tourism, which may not be conveniently reached by public transport.
It may cost you a little more to arrange executive car hire, but by doing your homework and booking early, there are some good deals to be had. We would recommend reserving your executive car as soon as your flights and accommodation have been booked, as you will often find the prices more competitive, the earlier you book.
If you are not able to drive a top of the range car every day, give yourself a treat and explore the executive car hire options available through our website. It may not be as expensive as you think and it will give your holiday in Spain a real lift. Before you know, it you could be showing off in a Mercedes SLK as you pull up outside your favourite luxury villa, or arriving with your friends at one of the many great golf courses in a BMW 5 series. Take a look today to see what your options are for executive car hire. Give yourself a treat. You deserve it!

Ford to Make HD Digital Radio Available Across Nearly All Product Lines
Ford to Make HD Digital Radio Available Across Nearly All Product Lines
Ford Motor Company today became the first automaker to offer HD Digital Radio across multiple product lines. The dealer-installed high-definition radio option is now available nationwide on nearly all 2008 model year Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.
Additionally, HD Digital Radio can be installed on many earlier models from 2005, 2006 and 2007. As with SYNC, the extensive availability of HD Digital Radio furthers the company’s ongoing efforts to deliver new entertainment technologies to automotive consumers.
“We believe HD Digital Radio will be an important part of Ford’s commitment to delivering innovations with mass appeal,” said Kim Irwin, Vehicle Personalization and Accessories manager for Ford’s Customer Service Division. “We’re helping our customers stay connected by supporting the features and functions they want in their vehicles. The dramatically improved audio, text and data features of HD Digital Radio — along with its hundreds of new radio stations — create a compelling combination at the right price.”
HD Digital Radio dramatically increases the sound quality of radio broadcasts and enables more than one radio broadcast on a single channel. As a result, consumers hear a wide range of new HD2 multicast stations as well as their favorite radio stations in crystal clear digital sound with no monthly subscription fee. More than 1500 radio stations in the U.S. currently broadcast in HD digital sound, with more than 600 stations also airing HD2 multicasts.
HD Radio joins other new technologies — including SYNC — being offered in Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles to make driving more enjoyable and convenient than ever before. Beginning immediately, HD Digital Radio will be available as a dealer-installed option on new, pre-owned and currently-owned vehicles. Price points will vary by dealership but, as always, HD Radio broadcasts carry no monthly subscription fee.
“Drivers have always had a love affair with their car radios,” added Irwin. “HD Radio offers our dealers a triple threat: It differentiates their offerings from other brands; it lets them upgrade customer entertainment systems in a unique way; and it lets buyers of recent pre-owned vehicles as well as current vehicle owners share completely in the benefits. This is the kind of program that our dealers love to see.”
To support the launch, Ford, Lincoln and Mercury dealers will benefit from an aggressive, multi-million-dollar, 13-week, on-air radio marketing campaign in partnership with the HD Digital Radio Alliance. The commercials will air in 100 markets over some 700 radio stations beginning today.
“In all of our discussions with automakers, Ford has consistently demonstrated both the will and the resolve to be industry leaders in this arena,” said Peter Ferrara, president and CEO of the HD Digital Radio Alliance. “Now that HD Radio is broadcasting across hundreds of local stations nationwide, partners who move early will gain the biggest advantage.”
The HD Digital Radio Alliance is a joint initiative of leading radio broadcasters to accelerate the successful rollout of HD Digital Radio. Current members include major radio groups and independent station owners: Beasley Broadcast Group, Bonneville International, CBS Radio, Citadel Broadcasting/ABC Radio, Clear Channel Radio, Emmis Communications, Entercom, Greater Media and WBEB Philadelphia.
