How old do you have to be to rent a car in Margate?
Drivers have to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related requirements to be aware of before locking in your Margate wheels. If you're a younger motorist, rental providers will likely charge an additional fee and limit the kinds of cars you're able to rent. The precise surcharge, and which ages it applies to, varies between outlets. Take your time to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Margate?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements may differ between rental companies, so be sure to read the fine print.
What side of the road do you drive on in Margate?
In Margate, you'll need to drive on the left-hand side of the road. 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 behind the wheel, take things slower and allow yourself ample time to get to your destination.

Yes, and you're sure to find your ideal set of wheels among our long-term car rental deals. Simply enter your trip details and we'll show you incredible options from numerous reputable companies.
Where can I find a Margate car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that are in Margate. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, take note that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
