How old do you have to be to rent a car in Bristol?
You need to be 21 and over to hop behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Bristol. Take note that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as compact, economy and medium size. Higher age limits generally apply for larger vehicles like premium SUVs. Most suppliers will also charge a young renter fee. Check the rules before clicking the book button and factor any surcharge into your travel budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Bristol?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Bristol?
Yes, so you won't have to rebook a rental car mid-holiday. Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and reserve a set of wheels that's all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Bristol car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental companies that are found in Bristol. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, bear in mind that additional fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
