Robert Murat hired a car two days after Madeleine vanished. He was in a rush and was aggressive - said Maria Rocco. He told her he needed to hire the car as "the English people" were using his to search for the missing girl.

There was an "issue" with the odometer of the car so there is no record of how many miles he put up on this car.

the name of the "lady" (and I use the term loosely) who runs the car hire place is Maria Rocco. She is the one who put the nasty poster up in the car hire place when Madeleine first went missing. B itch.


It looks like Auto Rent have more than one office. If McCs went to another place to hire (eg Lagos) could still have ended up with the same company, just different office - in which case, I wonder if people working there, cars etc go between offices as can happen here in the UK.
Just wondering with the 25 days and how something could have got into their car (if it was in there).
