In the United Kingdom, the primary renter of a vehicle is usually required to be at least 23 years of age, and there is also sometimes a maximum age limit applicable to rentals. All drivers listed on the rental agreement must show a valid drivers license on collection of the vehicle, and foreign renters may need to have an International Driving Permit as well. An IDP is however not usually required for individuals from the United States, Canada or New Zealand. Europcar can provide you with more details about the requirements for your particular rental. Younger drivers, under the age of 25, are most often required to pay a higher rental rate than usual, in the form of a ‘young drivers fee’. This is a rate charged per day of rental, and per registered underage driver on the rental agreement, up until a maximum of ten days. Younger drivers are also not permitted to rent certain larger or specialty type vehicles. A major credit card in the name of the primary renter is required to pay for the rental, and Europcar accepts the cards of American Express, Diners Club, Eurocard, Mastercard and Visa.

Europcar’s vehicles are divided into various car categories, ranging from small vehicles in the Mini category to larger vehicles in the Intermediate and Standard categories. When hiring a vehicle from Europcar, customers will select one of these categories, rather than a car by its specific make and model. The Mini category offers small and practical vehicles such as the Renault Twingo, Fiat 500 and Fiat Panda 1.2. These are ideal cars for city driving, but a larger vehicle may be more suitable for longer road trips, as they don’t have a large luggage capacity. Mini category vehicles have two doors, and seat up to four people, making them a good choice for single drivers, couples or even small families.

Economy category vehicles offered by Europcar, at Manchester Airport, are often a popular choice amongst many renters, as they are fuel efficient and usually have affordable rental rates. Example vehicles include the VW Polo, Ford Fusion 1.8 and Nissan Micra 1.2. These vehicles have two to four doors, and seat up to five people. Another popular category is the Compact vehicle class, featuring vehicles such as the Peugeot 308, which is an automatic vehicle, the Volkswagen Golf, seating five people, and the Fiat Sedici 4x4, which is also a vehicle seating five passengers. Vehicles with more interior space can be hired from the Intermediate category at Europcar. These vehicles generally seat five people, and have space for two large luggage items. Example vehicles in this category include the Citroen C4 Picasso, Renault Scenic, Volkswagen Tiguan 4x4 and Renault Koleos 4x4. Standard size vehicles seating five people, and storing up to three large luggage items, include the Renault Laguna and Volkswagen Passat Coupe TDI 140.

Europcar, at Manchester Airport, also caters for groups of travelers by offering larger car rentals. Two vehicles which are ideal for seven people include the Renault Espace and RN Trafic Generation 1.9D, while a vehicle suitable for up to eight passengers is the Mercedes Viano. If you still need more space, the RN Trafic Combi Long 1.9 is available, seating up to nine people. If you require a vehicle which has extra space for luggage, perhaps consider hiring an estate vehicle. From Europcar, these types of vehicles could include the Peugeot 307 SW 1.6 Essence or the Audi A4 Avant 2.0 TDI 140, with space for four large luggage items. Business passengers can also choose a vehicle with more style, class and elegance than the ordinary rented vehicle, from the Premium category, and an example of such a vehicle is the Mercedes Classe C, which can have a manual or automatic transmission.
