Tips for renting a car in England

Browse helpful tips for renting a car in England including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on November 20, 2024.
  • Those traveling to England with kids who plan to rent a car should be familiar with the child car seat requirements. In England car rentals, kids under the age of 12 years old or under the height of 135 cm (4’4”) must be restrained in a child car seat appropriate for their size. If you need a child car seat, be sure to let your rental agency know in advance so that it will be available for you when you arrive to pick up your car rentals in England.
  • In England, gas (known as petrol in the UK) is sold by the liter instead of by the gallon. In addition, some rental cars may take diesel instead of petrol, so be sure to confirm which type your England car rental takes before filling up the tank, as using the wrong type can cause serious damage to the vehicle’s engine. You will find plenty of petrol stations in and around the big cities, such as London, Bristol, Manchester, and Liverpool, but in rural England, you can go many miles without being able to fill up your tank. It might be wise to carry some extra gas with you if you plan to be on the road for a long time.
  • England is home to several toll roads and bridges, and you should be aware of how to pay these tolls before using them in your England car rentals. Typically, you can use cash, card, or the prepaid TAG system. Inquire with your rental car company in advance to see if they offer a specific TAG system for your rental vehicle.

  • Should I rent a car in England?

    England car rentals are a great way to explore everything this UK country has to offer. England is an incredibly diverse place, with lots of cities as well as coastal and natural attractions. For example, you can visit the cities of London, Bristol, and Liverpool, or head to Stonehenge or the coast. All of this can be done on your own schedule and at your own pace when you get car rentals in England. In addition, if you let your car rental company know in advance, you may even be able to drive into neighboring Wales and Scotland. It’s also possible to drive to Paris if you purchase the proper insurance and communicate with your car rental agency in advance.

  • What is driving like in England?

    Driving in England can take some getting used to, mostly because England drives on the left side of the road. Once you’ve got that down, though, it’s pretty straightforward. You will encounter lots of roundabouts in England. The roads are usually paved and in good condition, and local drivers are typically friendly. You may, however, encounter some traffic and impatient drivers in larger cities such as London and Manchester. Rural England is also home to beautiful scenery, but in these areas, you will need to watch for wildlife and give them the right of way if they are crossing the road.

    In England, you have to be at least 21 years old in order to rent a car. Still, some rental agencies may charge young driver’s fees if you are under the age of 25. It’s also possible that you will be restricted from renting certain car categories, such as luxury or passenger vans, if you are under 25 years old. In addition to your valid driver’s license, you will also need your valid passport and a major credit card to pay the rental fees and the deposit. Some car rental agencies may also require proof of insurance, so be sure to check with your chosen company in advance to avoid any misunderstandings when you arrive to pick up the vehicle.
