How old do you have to be to rent a car in Elgin?
If you’re 18 and over, you can rent a car in Elgin. Take note that home providers will charge an additional fee if you’re a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are generally restricted from renting larger or luxury models of cars. Carefully read the terms and conditions before you book so there are no surprises at pickup.
What do you need to rent a car in Elgin?
Two things — your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you prefer to opt out. Check with your supplier to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Elgin?
In Elgin and across South Africa, motorists drive on the left. This alone can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other controls are also on the other side to what you’re used to. To stay safe, take things slow at first and allow yourself extra time to get from A to B.

Yes. We partner with quality suppliers that offer long-term holiday homes for many categories of cars. Head to our long-term car rental deals and explore every inch of Elgin — or beyond!
Where can I find an Elgin car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between holiday home suppliers, so be prepared to do a little homework. Managed to find an Elgin supplier that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just bear in mind that an extra charge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re looking at will have all the information you need.
