Hi, my niece is visiting from Australia and would like to hire a car - does anyone know of any local hire companies who would rent one to her? The main rental places only seem to rent to over 25s.

 

Thanks

Normally there's a big astrix or an allowable exception to the rule that is conditional on you paying a daily surcharge, anywhere from £20-£30 a day extra for drivers under 25.

AFP Sheffield hires out small vans from £40, so if you can't find a car use them. Don't have to be 25.

It may be worth her doing the booking on

Line using her oz driving licence that may be easier

Has she looked into buying a car,using it for the duration then selling it again.I believe this is what quite a few people do when visiting from afar/for a long time.Luckily you only lose the depreciation

I think you'll find it difficult at age 20.

Adding her as a named driver on a privately owned car might work?
