Russethouse Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Its occured to me that some of you may be able to help with this problem, (if you are in that age group and rent a car on visits to the UK)I am organising a meeting for mainly Americans in the UK and several of them are both over 70 and wanting to rent cars, I have had reports that they have come up against this maximum age of renter rule.Can any of you recommend any companies that DO rent to people over 70 by any chance?Gayhttp://www.quimperclub.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roberto Posted May 1, 2004 Share Posted May 1, 2004 Saw your posting re: persons over the age of 70 years in United Kingdom...what is the situation in FRANCE...I am 78 years old and hope to move from USA to France in 2004. Though I plan to use the train/plane/bus for my travels withing France but there may occasions when I might be tempted to get a rental car to see "the country side" off the beaten track. Possibly you may be in a position to give me some helpful information. Please reply me thru my InBox, private message. Thank you very much.Roberto Friday April 30 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watkins Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I will be coming up to this requirement next year. As I now live in France is it possible to change my D.L for a french one when arriving at the age in question ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I haven't checked but I wondered if Saga might have some information on car hire as they specialise in travel for older people.Liz (29) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
