Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Newbury are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, provided at the time of booking confirmation or upon vehicle collection. This document outlines essential terms, conditions, insurance provisions, applicable charges, and your responsibilities during the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria in Newbury
Renting a Vehicle in Newbury
- To rent a vehicle from Car Hire in Newbury, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ depending on the vehicle type, with potential extra charges for drivers under 25. You need to possess a valid full driving licence suitable for the vehicle category, held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. Please provide valid identification and proof of your current address, along with payment information and a security deposit. Additional requirements may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations for our Car Hire services can be made conveniently through our website, via telephone, or in person at our Newbury location. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. All charges are in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection, a thorough inspection is required to identify any pre-existing damage, which should be reported immediately. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed at this point. To avoid additional charges, the vehicle must be returned in the same condition, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be assessed and charged accordingly. The vehicle should also be returned with the same fuel level as at collection; refueling charges will apply if it is returned with less fuel. Late returns may result in extra fees, so please notify us promptly if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during the rental, along with a small administration fee.
5. Liability and Coverage
- All car rentals include basic third-party insurance. Full details regarding coverage and excess amounts are outlined in the Rental Agreement. You may explore additional insurance options that can help reduce your financial liability. Remember, you are liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount unless further coverage is obtained. Any damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, irrespective of insurance.
6. Cancellations and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For detailed information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges, impacting your overall rental experience.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- Prohibited uses of our vehicles include any illegal activities or purposes. Engaging in racing, rallying, or off-road driving is not allowed. Transporting hazardous materials is strictly forbidden. Sub-letting or permitting unauthorized drivers is not permitted. Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is prohibited. Ensure that the vehicle is used for its intended purpose and do not exceed weight or passenger limits. Driving outside designated geographical areas requires prior approval.

Liability Limitations in Newbury
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable English and Welsh law, Car Hire Newbury will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, arising from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the amount you paid for the rental in the preceding year.
