Hiring a car abroad

Went on hols to Crete recently , hired a car just for a day . For less hassle I just asked the hotel reception paid my 40euros cash . Next day at 9.30 glamorous Greek lady in her 40’s with killer cleavage :wink: :stuck_out_tongue: delivered the car .
Quick jot down of my liscence details and jobs a good un , no credit card or licence checks .
Car was a couple of months old fiat panda just left in in the car park roughly same amount of petrol in it and ■■■■ lady picked it up next day sorted .
