Find both car hire and car hire insurance simply using our unique service. If you have already arranged your car hire you can also search for just car hire insurance or alternatively just car hire if you already have an annual car hire insurance policy.

We'll ask up to 50 car hire and over 15 car hire insurance companies for the best deals around. No other site enables you to find as many options in just one search.

We are always on the side of the consumer, and as new catches have been introduced by car rental firms on the look out to enhance their income we have developed new tools to keep our users one step ahead.

Car Hire Excess Insurance

We are experts in the field of car hire insurance, having developed the UK's only car hire insurance comparison service, and have become the No 1 destination for those searching for great value car hire insurance comparison. However many of our customers started using our site when searching for car hire as well, and we developed links with most of the major car hire search engines in the country.

Our car hire service allows you to easily compare whether you would be better off buying an inclusive 'excess free' package from a company such as Auto Europe or Zest Car Rental, or whether you would be better arranging your car hire and then covering the excess using a stand alone package. In most cases we have seen that a separate purchase is more cost effective, and ensures fuller cover, but not in every situation, hence the design of our service.

Just want car hire excess insurance? Click through and we will be delighted to provide quotations from the country's leading car hire insurers.

Debit Card Car Hire

We hate the way some companies make it really difficult to hire a car with a debit card.

So we make it easy - just use our filter and we will present deals from multiple leading brokers that can be hired with a debit card.

Its really simple but really effective.

Free Additional Drivers

Some companies offer free additional drivers as standard, others package them into some rates. We extract them and then show prices at a glance - if you want a extra driver to be included in your car rental package a search with us will soon unearth a great deal. Bear in mind that companies offering the 'free additional driver' may not work out the cheapest!

What's more all our excess insurance policies will cover for additional named drivers without additional charge - as long as they are in the rental agreement - just add them to the policy if you are asked the number of drivers and you are away and running!
