There is no doubt about it; we are living in an age where we can no longer afford to splash out on the fancy luxuries during our stay in London like we used to be able to. The recession means that we have to make do with spending a lot less; the money simply isn’t there to allow us to flit it all away on the finer things in life. This usually results in us giving things up; we stop going out for our fancy meal every night, we stop visiting the more expensive attractions in the city, we stop going out partying every night; the list has become endless – if we are able to save a few pennies on our holiday then we will definitely do it because, hopefully, the good times will come again and we won’t be made to pay for mistakes made this time.
One place that you certainly don’t have to save on is when hiring a car. You may think that this would be the first thing to go but in actual fact, a car is essential if you want to make the most of your trip. To rely on public transport is difficult enough when you know the area but in London it is generally more complex and best avoided if possible. There are numerous cheap car rental places that can be found throughout the city and all of them offer a fantastic service at a fraction of the cost that you would expect to pay. Don’t let the recession put you off renting a car; it is the most important thing you could spend your money on!

London Car Rentals are a large company with other 25 years experience in the vehicle rental market. They have a large amount of vehicles available to rent with everything from cars to refrigerated vans. No doubt you are here because you are looking to rent a car, so this is what we shall focus on.
The most basic models they offer are the Ford Fiestas with 1.2L engines. These cars can be rented from £28 a day, and are available to be used for 100 miles per day. If you do, somehow, happen to go over this limit, it is 15p for every extra mile driven. There are similar cars available, in ascending order of price, such as Toyota Auris (from £35 a day) and the more powerful VW Golf 1.6L (from £49 a day). The model range then takes a step up to the saloon cars, where a Saab 93 diesel is available from £50 per day. A Mercedes-Benz A-Class is on offer from £50 a day also. If you feel the need for a higher driving seat then the Nissan Qashqai with automatic gearbox can be rented for a mere £55 per day. Taking a larger jumper up brings you into the performance car model range, where the Mercedes E-Class can be rented from under £100 per day, and a Mercedes S-Class from £155 per day. Finally, if you require a convertible (seriously not recommended in London!) the Mercedes CLK is the best available in its class. This won’t set you back as much as you might initially think however, being available for just £110 per day for those renting for more than one week.
