Exeter car hire

If you’re intending to fully explore the architectural attractions and historic sites in the city of Exeter itself, then your best bet will be to hire the proverbial city car. Choose an economical compact model, which will also aid with efficient fuel consumption if you’re spending a lot of time in city traffic in low gear. If you’re arriving with the intention of exploring the outlying areas of the city and rural Devon in general, then you can go for an MPV or a larger sedan, or even a minibus if you’re travelling in a bigger group. The weather in summer is also balmy enough to opt for a convertible. Take these factors into account when booking car hire in Exeter.

There are quite a few areas of Exeter where you’ll need to make sure you stay below the 20mph speed limit, so it’s important to keep checking for signs as you’re driving through town. Other areas in the town are zoned at 30mph, while you can travel from Exeter to smaller towns at 70mph. Be aware of the large number of speed cameras in the area too, particularly on the A380.
