How old do you have to be to rent a car in East London?
If you're 18 and over, you can rent a vehicle in East London. Keep in mind that most rental companies will charge young drivers an additional fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young motorists usually aren't permitted to rent luxury cars or larger vehicles. Check the fine print before you book to avoid any surprises at the rental counter.
What do you need to rent a car in East London?
Generally, all you'll need is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when collecting the keys to your vehicle. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Rules often differ between providers, so be sure to check before you book.
What side of the road do you drive on in East London?
If you're renting a vehicle in East London or road-tripping around South Africa, remember that you'll be driving on the left. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so drive with extra care.
What is the cheapest car rental in East London?
The two cheapest daily prices recorded in East London within the past seven days were CA $34 and CA $38. Now that's what we'd call an awesome deal!

Where can I find an East London car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so you'll have to do a little shopping around. Found an East London supplier that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific news! Just take note that an extra charge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
