Are there any restrictions on who can be a driver?

Ages: If you're lucky enough to be under 25, or unlucky enough to be over 70 then you'll need to give us a call to check with our insurers. 

Licences: You'll also need a full UK licence held for at least 12 months, or an overseas licence held for 24 months.

Our insurance company will allow us to accept other hirers with small surcharges as follows:-

Extra drivers -  Third extra driver can be added with additional charge at £5 per day per driver 

Non standard ages - Aged between 21 and 25 -  £5 per day per driver and must have licence for 24 months

Over 70 - please contact us

Points on licence - Up to 3 points - no charge

4-6 points £3 a day per licence

Over 6 points means we have to ask our insurance company.

Overseas visitors or licence holders - Overseas driver or licence incurs additional tariff of £5 a day

Unacceptable risks - Unfortunately our insurers prevent us from accepting some non standard risks and we have summarised these here.

Undergraduates or students under 25 years of age

Persons suffering from any mental or physical defect or infirmity or suffers from fits, diabetes or any heart complaint affecting their ability to drive safely

Persons who have had their insurance declined and/or renewal refused and/or special insurance terms imposed as a result of claims experience and/or  have had their insurance or cover cancelled by any Motor Insurer.

However please consult our terms and conditions for the exhaustive list and always give us a call as we may be able to make arrangements with our insurers.
