Top Tips for Hiring a Luxury Car in Southampton

  • Hiring a luxury car in Southampton can turn your holiday from good to great, as you now have the opportunity to drive around in style. Southampton is a great English city to enjoy. A couple of fun things you can do in the city are visit Tudor House and Mottisfont Abbey. Southampton luxury car hire will make it much easier to get to these attractions, rather than taking public transport, as this can get very busy. Nightlife is also fun in Southampton, so if you want to turn up to the club looking like a million pounds, you should hire a luxury car during your stay. There is also a great selection of luxury restaurants that you can head to, including The Terrace Restaurant and The Jetty Southampton.
  • The closest airport to Southampton is Southampton International Airport (SOU). This airport has many car hire providers from which you can hire your luxury car. Southampton International Airport is located around 11min from the city centre of Southampton. The airport is not a very large airport and is therefore quite easy to navigate. Most of the hire car companies are located right next to the official airport parking.
  • Driving in Southampton is no more challenging than driving within any other large city. The city has very good road infrastructure, so you will not need to worry about that during your holiday here. Southampton, being a big and bustling city, does have traffic.

Overall it was good but it was an electric car and finding a spot to charge it was not easy. When I finally found one the plug did not fit in the vehicle so I had to take it back not fully charged and got dinged on that but not too badly.

When I got to the airport to pick up my car it was not ready so they gave me another car and they charged anymore. If the car wasn't ready they should not have charged me more for another car to suit my needs.

Had to rate as poor across the board. When I booked the hire car through Kayak, the confirmation email clearly stated that Third Party Insurance was included. When I arrived to collect the car, I was told this was not the case and effectively there was no Third Party Insurance on my booking, and the excess was £100,000 unless I agreed to pay a further £280 in additional insurances. I hire cars frequently and am well aware of the different levels of insurance to consider - but I was careful to book a car where the Third Party Insurance was included. I couldn’t believe it when the team at Europcar ignored what was on the booking form and maintained that it was not, and that I would be liable for the large amount excess in the case of any incident. I refused to drive the car on that basis and currently am left over £500 out of pocket for this non refundable booking. Won’t use Europcar (or Kayak) again.

The exterior of the car was dirty, with bird droppings on it. Otherwise, the only other issue was that the car kept falsely showing low rear tire pressure.
