The host was excellent throughout the whole process. Communication was very good, he was friendly and easy to deal with, and he made the whole car rental process simple and stress-free. Everything was straightforward from start to finish, and I would definitely rent from him again.

Best price compared to other cars, good confirmation speed, good response time mid-trip for any questions about the car, economical car, phone holder and cables provided, car in good condition, no issues. For an affordable, economic car for a quick get away and availability as means of transport and performance and features is not your priority, I recommend booking this car. Thank you for accomodating the booking.

The car was in excellent condition and super clean and well presented. Vivek was amiable, friendly and responsive. I needed to change the pick up time and then during the journey, the drop off time, and it wasn't any problem to get a response. Highly recommend the car and the courteous service!

I was so lucky to have a car to use for commuting to work. I met a very kind owner who gave me detailed instructions. It was great; the car was clean and tidy. My family and I will visit again next time. A great experience, great price, great quality ❤️

Great host, very clear communication from pick-up to drop-off. The car was clean, tidy, smooth drive, comfortable (both on motorway and country lane roads), our trip was London-Somerset, and only used up just about 3/4 of a tank, economical. I would be happy to rent the car again, or any other ones, from the same host.

I rented this car for two days and had a very pleasant trip. The car was clean, comfortable, and in very good condition throughout the rental. Everything worked perfectly and I had no issues at all during the journey. The owner was very friendly helpful, and easy to communicate with. He was always accessible and responded quickly whenever needed, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend both the car and the owner to others. Thank you again!

Soban was a fantastic host, and the entire rental experience was seamless from start to finish. The pick-up and drop-off process is incredibly easy and convenient, especially for anyone traveling through Victoria Station or flying in and out of Gatwick. It made both travel days completely stress-free. The car itself was comfortable, drove beautifully, and had excellent gas mileage. Everything was exactly as described, and communication was smooth throughout. I would happily rent from Soban again and highly recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a reliable and convenient option.

As many people, I and a former ZipCar member. And Kash Z was very understanding, helpful and supportive as it was my first time hiring a car on Turo. The car was immaculate in the inside and super "Show-Room" clean! The car had a full tank and did my TURO check in photos, then away I was on my journey! I have driven a lot of different automatic/manual cars and this Toyoya Aygo is a great small AUTOMATIC car. This Automatic gearbox can also allow you to shift Up/Down gears. This type of gear box does have a slight noticeable delay when it shifts as it changes gears in auto mode, which is just a Toyota gearbox design. Great reverse camera, which is always a nice feature. That aside and once use to the car, it was a great car to Drive. Kash keeps it in top condition!

Frequently asked questions

What do I need to rent a car on Turo?

To book a car on Turo in the UK, you must create a Turo account, be 21 years old or older with a valid driver’s licence, and get approved to drive on Turo. When you’re booking your first trip, you’ll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver’s licence and some other information. In most cases, you’ll get approved immediately, and you’ll be ready to rent for every future road trip, business trip, and family vacation

Do I need my own insurance?

No, you don’t need personal insurance coverage to rent a car on Turo.

Do I need a UK licence to drive in the UK?

No, you don’t need a UK licence to book a car in the UK. But you do need a valid driver’s licence — most international driver’s licences are accepted in the UK, such as those from the US, Canada, Australia, and France.

Can other people drive a car that I rented?

Yes, multiple guests can drive the car you rent on Turo, as long as they are all approved to drive. The primary driver (whoever rented the car) can add additional drivers with no fees or additional charges. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to add additional drivers before your trip starts, though guests can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s licence and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve rented. You can add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

What is the cancellation policy on Turo?

You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a cancellation fee.

In the rare event a host cancels, you’ll be notified immediately so you can book another car, or we’ll help you find one. Your refund can be temporarily held to expedite rebooking, or the funds can be returned to your bank account — your choice.

What happens if I have an accident?

If there’s an emergency or an issue with the car, call our emergency roadside assistance provider, available 24/7. We’ll make sure you’re safe, then help you get back on your way.

Can I get my car delivered to me?

Yes, many hosts offer delivery to travel hubs like airports, train stations, and hotels, or to custom delivery locations. There are cars available on Turo near hundreds of airports, or you can have your car delivered for pickup and return at your hotel or vacation rental to save time and hassle. Some hosts offer free delivery, while others set their own delivery fee for the service.

How do I get discounts when booking a car?

Many Turo hosts offer discounted prices for weekly and monthly trips, as well as “early bird” discounts for trips booked a week or more in advance. So, get the best deals and lowest rates possible by booking longer trips, at least a week in advance.*

On your Account page, make sure you’ve checked the box to receive email notifications, and enable push notifications from the Turo app in your phone settings — we’ll send you occasional promo codes, discounts, and deals on rental cars!

What are the cleaning and safety policies on Turo?

Under the enhanced cleaning policy, hosts are required to clean and disinfect their vehicles thoroughly before every trip, so you can feel safe and comfortable behind the wheel. Turo hosts have access to training materials on enhanced cleaning practices to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 or other viruses.
