Fantastic experience at Sixt. Pickup was very professional and courteous. My car was a practically new Peugeot, about 9,000 km. I picked up at Faro airport, dropped off in downtown Lisbon after having the car for 4 days. It was an OUTSTANDING car! For those who are the complaining type - no matter where you rent, GET FULL COVERAGE INSURANCE WITH NO DEDUCTIBLE! Yes, it costs more, and yes, its completely worth it for the peace of mind. Every parked car in Lisbon has a bump or scratch on one of the corners. Parking is ridiculous. Ignore the haters and don't be afraid to rent here. When I dropped off the car, I literately walked away from it because I had "full coverage". I watched another car get dropped and the agent at Sixt went over the car with a fine toothed comb - as they should!
