However, certain cars from REX have manual gearboxes but this is clearly stated on all marketing literature and is limited to a few models only. Does Transtur require a security deposit? Yes. As with most rental car companies around the world we require a security deposit. Usually, this deposit is simply an authorization of your credit card which is released/cancelled when you return the car. However, due to the US economic embargo on Cuba, certain credit cards from American banks cannot be charged or authorization received from these cards. In these cases we accept cash deposits which are returned to you in cash when the car is returned. I am returning my car in a different location, what should I do? There are maps shown on our website to give you a general idea where our offices are located. Furthermore, a map will be provided when you collect the car and our delivery staff can assist you in deciding which location would be best in a certain city/province based upon your return time and plans.
