    You could potentially find yourself cuffed and brought to court the next time you step foot in Italy. It's very unlikely but then again; don't do the crime if you won't pay the fine.

    The added element here is the hire car which I presume is how they've found you. If it was one of the larger companies that could potentially cause issues for you in hiring a car in future. Notionally I suppose you could find yourself landed with penalties and charges for not paying, perhaps with the rental company attempting to recoup.
