Hello,
Which are the best/cheapest companies to hire a car in the uk? I was thinking to get it arround Newcastle and leave it in Glasgow.
Lluis
Hi Lluis ... are you thinking about city locations or airport locations, and how long are you considering hiring for ? One-way rental fees can vary widely, depending on duration of the hire.
Well my idea is to take it in Newcastle (downtown) and leave it in Glasgow downtown or prestwick airport (not international airport). Hope this helps. Ahand as I've never driven on the left i want full insurance
How many days rental ?
Sorry forgot to tell that too It'll be 3 days. from thursday to saturday arround 14 each day.
Alamo
Avis
Europcar
Hertz
National
Prices range from £78 to £110 including the one way rental fee. That also included insurance, but some do still have a non-waiveable excess. National were the cheapest for the random dates which I selected, but that may differ according to which dates you select. With other companies, quotes for one way rentals on a 3 day hire between those locations were on request only.

If you complete the rental within the period 1400hrs Thursday to 1400hrs Saturday, that would in fact only be a 2 day rental, so it would be worth trying each of those links again for a new quote with your proposed dates. The rental charge should obviously decrease, but the one way drop off fee may increase.

ohh i missityped i'm from 16th september to 19th september to beexactly
from 16th september to 19th september to beexactl
Well that is some coincidence, because those were the random dates that I selected for the online quotes !!

for comparison, there is a direct train from Newcastle to Glasgow at 13:51 and at the moment there are still some standard class tickets at £9.55 although they be won't be around for long and you might have to pay £15 (or £60 on the day). What was the plan for using the car?
Steve my plan was from newcastle to Isle of Skye be arround there and then go to glasgow to take my flight back
The train idea won't work for this. I was hoping you were going to say that you'd stay in Glasgow and go out to Loch Lomond or somewhere close on the middle days.
To Lluis and anyone else considering hiring a car, please just be aware that the availability problems widely reported at many overseas holiday destinations this year are also now reported to be affecting parts of the UK ...
Thanks david...
