You'll need to bring credit card, as well as your driver's license.

Sixt's minimum age to rent a car in London is 21. Take time to review Sixt's policy, as there may be added fees if you are under 25 in most cases or for higher category vehicles especially.

Is there a particular vehicle I should get for my trip to London?

That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit London. Economy or compact automobiles are ideal for short commutes and are easier to park. If you are traveling with family or friends, then a mid-size car or SUV will have enough room for all of you and offer a more comfortable ride on longer commutes. Those looking for a little extravagance on their London getaway can choose the premium category for a car like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.

Does the United Kingdom require car insurance?

You are required to have insurance before you rent a car in the United Kingdom. Many major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover) generally offer coverage. However, many of them have prohibitions, such as not covering large vehicles, like premium models or some SUVs.

Do I have to full up the tank before I take my car back to Sixt?

We advise a full tank policy. You pick up your Sixt rental with the needle at "F". But, if you return your rental with less than the amount that you received it with, most companies will charge a premium to top it back off. For a cheaper rate, it is best to find a filling station before you return the car to Sixt. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

London certainly has its charms, but you may want to take to the road after you've checked off all the activities in London.

Sixt typically offers one-way rentals. You may find it more convenient to drop off your rental car at a different location. Don't forget there is typically an additional charge when you opt for one-way.
