YES but be prepared to leave a hefty cash deposit with the agent.

You cannot book anything like that online.

You could however get a friend to pre pay online for you and then give them the cash. Collect the voucher from your friend and head on your trip.

Yep, it'll cost you, but if you return the car with no accidents/damage you'll get your money back.

Well it won't be a worry because you'll have to had called them first to confirm that they will accept cash.

AFAIK very few of the big companies will accept cash (there's an old thread on this that I'll look for now...)
