How old do you have to be to rent a car in Margate?
If you’re aged 18 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Margate. Bear in mind that rental suppliers will charge young drivers an additional fee, which helps cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers often aren’t permitted to hire luxury or specialty vehicles. Take note of the fine print before you book so there are no hassles when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Margate?
While terms and conditions may differ between rental car outlets, the two main things you’ll need are your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. You don’t need to take out the company’s auto insurance. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.

Where can I find a Margate hire car if I am younger than 25?
