How old do you have to be to rent a car in Manchester?
Anyone with a valid driver’s license 21 and over can rent a vehicle in Manchester. While some suppliers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21 you can expect additional fees. Find out what ages the young driver surcharge applies to, and the cost, before locking in your ride. Providers also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Manchester?
Any home company you choose will ask for these two things — a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up your ride.
What is the cheapest car rental in Manchester?
We looked into prices over the last seven days and found that daily rates were as low as AU$86. The second lowest price for holiday home vehicles in Manchester was AU$123 a day. These rates were available on Expedia, with a holiday home starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Manchester?
Whether you’re planning to stop in Manchester or venture beyond, you can book a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll find you amazing long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Manchester car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental car companies that are in Manchester. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 be aware that extra fees may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
Can I drive in Manchester with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
