Car Rentals in Great Britain, GBR

We all have times when plans get upended. That’s why we offer a full refund on most prepaid hires if you let us know a minimum of six hours ahead of the collection time. Be sure to double-check the hire agreement — there are some cases where it’s not available. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal has more useful information.

Drivers with a valid license 21 and above can hire a vehicle in Great Britain. While some suppliers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21, expect an extra fee. Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and what it costs, before locking in your ride. Providers also restrict the categories of cars available to young drivers. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.

Most rental companies will need these two things — a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you’d like to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring with you to the hire counter.
