We have hired a car before for two weeks, it generally works out at about £200-300+fuel depending on the type of car that you hire.

I know this all must have been a huge set back for you, especially as it was the area that you had renovated.
There is probably no real risk for a few days. That is why I haven't had ours assessed. We are going to get the roof fixed anyway, but at least we won't get hassled for staying there. I priced a few cars, and its 800 to 900 AUD unless i get the one they make you put a huge deposit down. Last time we got a really cheap car but they made us put down 1000 Euro deposit on our credit card ! (200 AUD rental)
