When you rent a car in the United Kingdom, you’ll have the opportunity to choose from a large range of vehicles. If your plan is to visit more rural areas, you may want to book a premium sedan as a long-term rental to accommodate road trips. If you’re traveling with friends and need a weekly rental to facilitate some city-hopping, opt for a station wagon or van. Travelers planning to clock some hours on the road may want to opt for some bookable extras, including an additional driver and GPS. Planning a family holiday? Add a children’s seat in advance. Whether you just need the car rental for a few days or for a long road trip, you’ll find what you need with us.
Typically, the winter months in the United Kingdom offer mild temperatures with quite a bit of rain, making indoor activities preferable. Take the time to visit Manchester; the former industrial city has transformed in the last several years into an exciting metropolis rampant with museums, theaters and rich cuisine with an international flair.
