How old do you have to be to rent a car in Riccarton?
Rental vehicle rules in Riccarton require drivers to be at least 21. Are you a young driver? A few surcharges and restrictions may apply. Many rental suppliers impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions generally apply to the sorts of cars available to young people too. Age limits may differ between providers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Riccarton?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a current driver's licence and credit card. If you'd prefer to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in Riccarton?
If you're renting a vehicle in Riccarton or planning a big road trip in Scotland, remember that you'll be driving on the left-hand side. Also, the steering wheel will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel a little unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra caution.

Where can I find a Riccarton car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Riccarton rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some outlets will charge additional costs. It's better to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so do your research.
