Q: Can I pick up my car at Heathrow Airport instead of the

Heathrow Airport delivery service for an additional £15 fee. Contact us at
least 24 hours in advance to arrange delivery to Terminals 2, 3, 4, or 5. Call
+44 1932 361212 or email support@finalrentals.com with your flight details and

A: The minimum age
to rent a car with Finalrentals UK is 21 years old with at least 1 year of

(typically £10–£15 per day). For SUV and premium vehicles, the minimum age is
23 years.
Q: Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP) to rent a
car in the UK?
A: If your driving
licence is issued in the UK, EU, USA, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand and is
printed in the Latin alphabet (English characters), you do NOT need an
International Driving Permit. If your licence uses non-Latin characters
(Arabic, Cyrillic, Chinese, etc.), an IDP is required alongside your original
licence.
Q: What documents do I need to collect my rental car?
A: You will need:
(1) A valid driving licence (held for at least 1 year), (2) A valid passport or
national ID, (3) Your booking confirmation (email or reference number), and (4)
A credit card in the primary driver's name for the security deposit. Debit cards
are generally not accepted for deposits.
Q: How far is Windsor Road Bray from Windsor Castle and
Legoland?
A: Windsor Castle is
approximately 10 minutes (5 km) from our office. Legoland Windsor is about 12
minutes (7 km) away. Both are very easy drives with clear road signage. Free

Legoland has on-site parking for £6 per day.
Q: Can I drive the rental car to Scotland, Wales, or other
parts of the UK?
A: Yes, unlimited
mileage is included with all Finalrentals UK rentals, so you are free to drive
throughout England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland at no extra cost.
One-way rentals (pickup in Bray, return in Edinburgh, for example) are
available for an additional fee — contact us for pricing.
Q: What is the fuel policy for car rentals at Windsor Road
Bray?
A: All rentals
operate on a full-to-full fuel policy. You collect the car with a full tank and
must return it with a full tank. If you return the car without refilling, a
refuelling charge applies (typically £30–£50 plus the cost of fuel). Petrol
stations are plentiful in Bray and near Heathrow.
Q: Is insurance included in the rental price?
A: Yes, basic
third-party liability insurance is included as required by UK law. This covers
damage to other vehicles and property. We strongly recommend upgrading to
Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or full coverage to reduce your excess liability
to zero. CDW costs approximately £15–£25 per day.

A: Yes, after-hours
drop-off is available. Please notify us in advance. Park the car in our
