Tips for renting a car in London Heathrow Airport

Browse helpful tips for renting a car in London Heathrow Airport including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on 12 June 2025.
  • Renting a car from Heathrow Airport (LHR) is a great way to everything London has to offer. While London has an extensive public transport network, it’s still a huge city and getting to some of your desired locations on public transport can take a long time and involve several transfers. Trains in the UK are also notoriously expensive, so if you want to leave the city, a rental car is your best bet. With a Heathrow rental car, you will be able to explore everything both inside and outside of London on your own schedule.
  • If you will be driving around London, England, with kids in your Heathrow car rental, you should be aware of the child safety seats laws in England. All children under the age of 12 years old need to use a child safety seat appropriate for their height and weight. Children 12 years old and over need to be wearing a seat belt at all times. If you need child car seats, be sure to let your chosen rental agency know in advance so that they are available for you when you arrive to pick up your car at Heathrow.
  • One important thing to keep in mind about driving in the United Kingdom that most foreigners are not used to is that in the UK, you need to drive on the left and overtake on the right. T he steering wheel is on the right-hand side of the car. This can take some getting used to, so be sure to take a few practice rounds before heading into the city center of London. In addition, speed limits are posted in kilometers per hour (km/h) instead of miles per hour (mph).

Car rental FAQs

Find answers to frequently asked questions about car rentals in London Heathrow Airport, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on 12 June 2025.
  • What documents will I need to have in order to pick up my Heathrow car rental?

    First off, you must be at least 21 years old to rent a car in England. Drivers under the age of 25, though, may still incur a young driver’s fee and be restricted from renting certain categories of vehicles, such as luxury vehicles. In order to pick up a rental car from Heathrow Airport, you will need to have your valid driver’s license in good standing, as well as your passport. You will also need to have a credit card in your name to pay for the rental. Some agencies may also need proof of auto insurance, so check with your chosen provider in advance. Furthermore, any additional drivers you are putting on your rental contract will need to show their valid driver’s license and passport, as well.

  • Can I drive to other cities, regions, or countries in my Heathrow car rental?

    Yes, you can typically drive to other places in England or even across the border into Scotland or Wales in your car rental from Heathrow Airport. You may even be able to drive to France. If you want to make any of these trips, you need to let your provider know in advance, as crossing international borders may require extra paperwork or insurance. Some car rental categories, though, such as luxury or exotic cars, may be restricted from crossing the border. If you want to arrange a one-way rental, this is also usually possible if you let your car rental agency know in advance.

If you decide to leave the city of London, you may encounter toll roads in other areas of the country.
