How old do you have to be to rent a car in Southbourne?
Southbourne requires drivers to be at least 21 to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and stricter rental conditions. Many outlets impose a young renter fee on top of the usual car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Southbourne?
Before you can hit the road in Southbourne, you'll need a valid driver's licence and a credit card. If you decline to take out the company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Rules can vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental company.
What side of the road do you drive on in Southbourne?
In Southbourne, like all of England, you drive on the left-hand side. Take it slow at first and build confidence driving on the left if you've never done it before.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Southbourne?
Yes, and you'll find your perfect set of wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip details and we'll list fantastic offers from a range of quality companies.
Where can I find a Southbourne car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Southbourne providers will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won't. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some outlets will apply a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
