Top Tips for Hiring an SUV in Oxford
- Oxford University ranks among the world’s most prestigious educational institutions, and the city enjoys a thriving summer tourist trade centred around its hallowed halls and haunts. You can get public transport to many of the colleges, but when it’s time to explore the Oxfordshire countryside, both are found wanting. Oxford SUV hire gives you sports utility capability to range off the beaten track, along with the freedom and convenience to be on the road in a flash. Revered Oxford Sailing Club is about 5 miles west, while Reading lies around 26 miles south.
- Passengers on flights to London Heathrow Airport (LHR) can get a car from the airport car hire centre and drive to Oxford. There are offices at each of London Heathrow’s terminals for your convenience, represented by major providers such as Enterprise, Avis and Europcar, who can get you an SUV to suit your requirements. You must be at least 21 years or older to obtain Oxford SUV hire, and most providers impose young driver fees on anyone under 25 years of age. London Gatwick (LGW) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) also have car hire centres that take reservations.
- You should have your passport and return ticket along with a photo ID and valid domestic driver’s licence when you arrive at the hire provider’s office. If you have an International Driving Permit, we highly recommend you bring it along. Major credit cards are accepted at all airport SUV hire locations, and most permit payment via bank debit card as an additional convenience. To avoid difficulties and delays, be sure the name on both your licence and your payment card are identical.
- You should know that hands-free mobiles are permitted while driving in the city and all passengers are required to wear seatbelts. Drive your hire SUV in Oxford on the left-hand side of the road, with an eye out for road and traffic signs as well as crossing pedestrians and cyclists. It is both extremely dangerous and illegal to operate any vehicle under the influence in the UK. Furthermore, CCTV is in wide circulation, so drive responsibly and safely at all times.
- Book your SUV hire in Oxford at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- October is typically the cheapest month to hire an SUV in Oxford, with prices around R69 per day. The most expensive month is June, with average prices of R103 per day.
FAQs About Hiring an SUV in Oxford
Which difficulties are there with driving a hired SUV in Oxford?
Motorways A34 and A40 border Oxford west and east, moving inbound and outbound traffic to several secondary roads that lead to the city centre. The A34/A4200 interchange and the one created by A40/A420 are key spots for traffic slowdowns during the morning and evening rush hours. Within Central Oxford, you should expect moderate increases in vehicular and foot traffic during the summer months and significantly higher numbers of scooters and bicycles during the school year. Oxford Castle and the vicinity is a prime area for commerce and landmarks, so anticipate greater numbers of foot and vehicular traffic in this area during the afternoons from 1 pm-4 pm.
What are some popular locations to book Oxford SUV hire?
Visitors already within UK borders have access to other locations within the city of Oxford where they can book an SUV hire. Oxford Railway Station is a major junction and transit point for students and residents, so passengers can choose from several providers in the vicinity, like Hertz and Thrifty. Gloucester Green Bus Station is not far from Oxford Railway Station, if you prefer an alternate location in the area.
Where are the best places to park a hired SUV in Oxford?
Free parking is very difficult to find in Oxford due to the high number of students, university staff and residents; but you can still find pockets here and there if you know where to go. Oxford County Council manages on-street and city garage facilities, which are generally pay and display using cash, card or the RingGo mobile app. Public parking in Oxford is usually free Monday-Sunday from 10 pm-8 am.
