I am in the UK and wanting to hire car for this weekend. However, as I am only 23 every car hire company I have looked at adds on a young driver surcharge for under-25s.

Hi, Me and 3 mates from the UK are going to the US next summer travelling and we want to drive. We'll all be 21 and i've been told that rental companies will often charge extra if you are under 25, so should we: a) Go ahead and rent a car with the extra cost, how much roughly would this cost? b) Buy a cheap(ish) car thats reliable, use that and hopefully sell it somewhere before we head out the country (my cousin and mates did this in Australia and it worked out.) however I don't know insurance, taxes etc in the US so is it worth it? c) Just use public transport?

Resolved Question: When hiring a car in the US, roughly how much extra does it cost to put an additional driver onto the policy?
To put my question into context: Myself and two other friends want to hire a car and drive across the US this summer. We live the UK. We're all going to be 21 come the time of the holiday. The company that we've been quoted a price with (www.nationalcar.com) said that we would have to pay extra for each additional driver we wanted on the policy. That's fine with us, we all want to have a drive of the car. Annoyingly, whilst car insurance and all the other additional costs could be calculated online, additional drivers was the only cost they couldn't/wouldn't calculate. We have to arrange this with them, at the car rental desk, when we go to pick the car up. In people's experience, how much per person does this normally add to the bill?

Resolved Question: Auto insurance for international visitor?
I will be travelling to West coast USA this summer for two months and i am very much hoping to rent a car. The only problem with this is my age. I am under 21, and while i have managed to find plenty of companies willing to rent to me, they all require that i provide my own liability insurance. The CDW (collision damage waiver) is not an issue since this is covered by my credit card company. My home auto-insurance in the UK does not extend Liability over driving a) rental cars or b) the USA. I understand it is possible to buy either just personal liability insurance or a "non-owners" car insurance policy. The problem with both of these is that i don't have an address in the USA. Is there any way i can still obtain insurance?

Resolved Question: Rental Cars in London. Minimum Age of 25??? + Left-Hand Driving?
I'm 18 years old, and me and my friend are backpacking in the UK for a few days this coming summer. 1. What companies are cheap but still not sleezy and semi-legitimate? 2. I have had my licence since march 2007, so hopefully I will be allowed to rent one of their cars. Anyone have any views on this? (I'm considered a safe driver and have not been in any collisions of any sort since i got my licence). I've heard however, that you have to be 25 to rent cars. 3. Does it take a long time to get used to left-hand driving? I guess the matter of changing gears should be okay, but the mirrored yealding-rules; are they difficult to get used to?

Resolved Question: When agreeing to a contract in the UK, is it necessary to sign all pages in the terms and conditions?
I frequently rent/lease cars and property in the UK and whenever I rent something I always have to sign all pages in the Terms and Conditions. I recently rented a car and after my rental the car hire company want to apply an administration charge which is not on my signed Terms and Conditions. They are citing a clause in my signed terms and conditions that I agree to any other terms and conditions the company may impose. Can they legally do this and is it enforceable? The hire company told me they'll be sending me a copy of these Terms and Conditions so that I can check them however they said they do not have a signed copy of them since I didn't sign them, however they still want to enforce them because they are saying that the fact that I rented the car is, for them, equal to me signing these conditions - even though they were never shown to me in the first place

I am having difficulty finding a car rental company in the US that doesn't require you to have held your international license for at least a year - could someone please tell me if such a one does exist?! UPDATE: thanks everyone for your contributions towards trying to resolve my question! I have looked at many sites of car rental companies and they all state (in small and very-difficult-to-find print) that you need to have held your license for at least a year. I checked out Hertz after Douak mentioned them and I thought I'd finally found a company that does not require this, but then after much searching through their FAQs, they also stated that they would only rent to those who have held their license for at least a year! I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if this just a recent requirement that all the companies are asking for or if they simply are just not strict about it? Thanks again for trying to help :)
