Long term car rentals are just what it says on the tin, hiring a car on a standard basis over a longer period of time. Most suppliers will offer a reduced price to someone taking a vehicle over an extended period.
The main difference from short term leasing being that long term car rentals have everything you need included, such as insurance and breakdown cover. There is one set monthly fee (per 28 days) and the longer you commit to having the vehicle, the lower the charge may be.
Long terms car rentals are be beneficial for those wanting to hire a vehicle for an unknown period of time. The rental can be an extended on a month to month basis and there is no need for a long term commitment.
Contract based work
Seasonal work
If you’re car has broken down or needs repairing
An extended holiday
Another popular reason to take out a long term car rental is for a new employee on a probationary period, the rental can be used as a gap car before you order their new contract hire vehicle.

We regularly get asked the same questions in relation to long term car hire so we’ve put together a list of our frequently asked questions to help you find an answer for your query quicker.
Is long term car rental worth it? It really depends how long term you are looking to hire for. If you’re looking for something between 15-30 days then long term car hire may be the best option, however if you are looking for a few months you may want to try a short term lease.
What age do I need to be to hire a car long term? It really depends on the location that you are looking to hire, typically in the UK it’s 23 years or older, but there are locations in Spain for instance that we can hire to 18 year olds.
What do I need to pick up my hire car? To pick up your hired car you need the car hire voucher, the payment card you booked the rental on & a valid driving licence that has been held for at least a year.
What is the difference between hiring and leasing a car? Hiring a car is typically suitable for a shorter period, it costs more but with leasing you tend to have to sign up for a much longer term. You can find some of our leasing deals on our short term leasing page.
Should I look at leasing a car instead of hiring one? It really depends on the length of time you are looking to have the vehicle for, leasing tends to work out cheaper over a longer period than hiring.
