Rental firms 'leasing' cars from cash-strapped owners

Companies which offer financially strapped car owners a way out - by taking over their vehicles to be used as rentals - are sprouting. It makes good business sense for the dozen or so firms, which advertise their services online - they avoid the huge capital outlay of acquiring their own car fleet. On the surface, it looks like a good deal for the car owners too but it is illegal to rent their cars out this way.
