How old do you have to be to rent a car in Preston?
Drivers 21 and above can road trip around Preston in a rental car. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge applies. You'll generally be limited to a few car categories, such as compact and mid-size, and may also have to take out an all-inclusive insurance rate. Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Preston?
A current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of other coverage. Requirements can differ between rental suppliers, so read through your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Preston?
In Preston, like the rest of England, you drive on the left-hand side. Go slower to build confidence driving on the opposite side if it's your first time.

You can. Expedia partners with quality companies that offer weekly and monthly rentals for all categories of cars. Snap up one of our long-term car rental deals and explore every bit of Preston — or far beyond!
Where can I find a Preston car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Preston rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some will charge additional costs. It's better to know about this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
