Because of the large number of pedestrians and the narrow streets in the downtown area, base your Daventry car hire choice on which part of the town you're staying in, and your sightseeing plans. Stay as compact as you can if you're going to spend most of your time in the town centre – a city car or hatchback will do you well. If you're with your family or a group of people, go for the smallest SUV or MPV that will still give everyone enough room. If you're going road-tripping, you can hire a comfortable saloon. Daventry also has several EV charging stations, so you can also opt for an electric vehicle.

Speed limits in Daventry vary, depending on the type of road. In addition, specific roads that have been hot spots for accidents have had the limits downgraded, so always look out for the signs. For example, you can only travel at 40 mph on the certain stretches of the A428. In built-up areas the speed limit is 30 mph, and that also applies to the main arterial through the town, the A45. You can drive at up to 70mph on dual carriageways. Mobile speed enforcement cameras are a common sight, so don't be tempted to go faster.

Daventry has several council-run car parks, for example on High Street, Chapel Lane, Golding Close and Chaucer Way. These are all free, subject to time limits. At some short stay car parks you can park for 30 minutes, while others offer 1h 30min or 3-hour periods. These short-stay facilities have a no-return policy whereby if you park there and then leave, you can't use the car park within the following 4 hours.
