An IT and marketing company by Chris Charlton http://hossgifford.com/zipcar-marketing/comment-page-1/#comment-2135 Chris Charlton Thu, 09 Feb 2012 20:47:19 +0000 http://hossgifford.com/?p=150#comment-2135 Yes - this is an awesome concept and I very much enjoy being a member of a UK incarnation of it. City Car Club, in Manchester and many other UK cities, was the reason I was able to ditch owning an old banger, in favour of buying the service of a car whenever I need it.
