Budget Car Rental has a place in patong beach and i would think there may be other rental firms in patong beach also

Also ask at places that rent houses! I always rent car/motorbike from my landlord! First it is cheaper, and as my landlord is European, if there is trouble, he will help out fine and not try to "scre*" you like some Thai rent a car will do if something goes wrong!

If you are in Patong, ask Nicke, he will sure know somebody you can count on!

Don`t think you had "full insurance", or?
