Car rental Scotland

Car Rental in Scotland for tourists, business and all manner of private usage. Many people require hire cars for racing around central Scotland, in Glasgow and Edinburgh others for touring the highlands - consider the engine size of the vehicle that you choose to hire,
if you are going up and down hills in the highlands with several passangers, you will be more comfortable in a larger car rather than an economy car. You really do pay for what you get in terms of comfort and engine capacity.
Our reservations sales staff would be happy to discuss your requirements with you should you require help in selecting the right auto for your trip.
One-way rentals, zero excess and younger driver suppliments are available for most car groups.
Budget economy cars, estate cars, 4x4 4wheel drive and MPV or people carriers are available for rent. The luxury car groups may include BMW and Mercedes cars.

The cheapest cars in a rental company's fleet will be small, 3-door hatchbacks, such as the Fiat Seicento. Although not spacious, these can be perfectly adequate for many people's needs, especially those travelling alone or as a couple on short distances, and can represent very good value for money. Rental cars are classified in groups according to size, with Group A cars being the smallest and therefore the lowest priced. The exact definition of these car rental groups can vary slightly between rental companies, but in general Group A and B cars will be small, Group C and D cars will be compact versions, and higher groups will consist of larger vehicles or luxury cars. The specific make and model of a car will not be guaranteed by the company on booking, but they should give an example of the type of car available in that group. The rental rate quoted will be based on that model or a vehicle of similar size and features. Additional requests such as child seats and roof racks should be made at time of booking, and these extras will normally attract an additional charge. Small cars to rent - which will be classed as a Groups A or Group B car - can carry a driver and a passenger and can also take two children in the back seats. There is some room for luggage in the boot, but space is limited, and the lack of doors to the back seat could be awkward for families. The cars are, however, easy to handle and a particularly good choice of car to hire for city driving and for parking in tight spaces. Being economy cars, they will not come with sophisticated, advanced features or any extras like CD players, yet they will be good quality vehicles, recent models with low mileage and will be delivered clean and well serviced. All cars from rental companies should have a full tank of fuel on collection, either petrol or diesel depending on the model. They should also be returned to the rental agency with a full tank, unless you are prepared to pay additional charges for refuelling which will end up more expensive The cheapest model of car to hire will have manual transmission, but small automatic cars are also available to rent at a higher rate. The Nissan Micra is a typical example of a small car to rent with automatic transmission and would suit those unfamiliar with manual shifts. For those travelling with passengers but still looking for a budget rate, a small 5-door car could be ideal. These offer slightly more room both inside and in the trunk, and can carry two adult passengers in the back seat. The ever popular Vauxhall Corsa is a good example of a car of this size and most car hire companies offer very attractive rental prices for this class of car.
