What if the exact car isn't available?

You book a specific model. If the rental company can't provide it, you choose: a comparable car it offers, or a full refund of what you paid us.

How many miles are included?

Most cars include 100 miles a day (extra £0.54 to £5.00 a mile, depending on the car). 8 cars have unlimited miles, so check the car's miles before a long drive.

Do I pay the London Congestion Charge in a rental car?

Yes, you pay it yourself: £18 (est. $24) a day in 2026, set by Transport for London. Pay on the TfL website or app on the day you drive in the zone. If it's unpaid, the fine goes to the rental company, which passes it on to you and may add its own admin fee.
