KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Ilford

  • With Ilford car hire you get instant access to this bustling part of London, and easy access to the beautiful countryside lying just beyond the UK’s busiest city. The A12 motorway is a well-maintained stretch opening up to the southern UK. Consider New Forest in Hampshire for a picturesque journey through incredible countryside, or pop in to Epping Forest with over 100 lakes, ponds and a wide variety of nature. If you choose to stay in Ilford you will have access to great entertainment spots, shopping and plenty of lively action.
  • With Ilford car hire you will have a variety of London-based airports from which to choose from, depending in which one you land at. Heathrow Airport, London City Airport, London Stansted Airport, Gatwick and Luton Airports all offer car hire, so check out your landing airport and book accordingly. Heathrow has the widest choice, including Avis, Virtuo, GREENMOTION, Easirent, SIXT, Hertz, keddy and many others. However, with London being the metropolis it is, you will find similar companies at the other airports too.
  • Driving your car hire in and around Ilford should provide you with a sense of freedom and present with nothing but opportunities. The city is very similar in terms of UK infrastructure in the sense that it discourages cars from entering the inner city. Roads are wide enough in the suburbs and as long as you obey basic rules of the road, you should have no problems with the law. Buckle up at all times, stay under the blood alcohol limit of 0.08% and ensure that you restrict mobile use during driving.
  • If you have never driven in the UK before and not experienced the roundabout system then you may have to get used to it before driving your car hire in Ilford. Roundabouts are standard in UK cities and encourage smoother traffic flow. London drivers are quite speedy at times, but are mostly law-abiding drivers. Apart from occasional bad weather in colder months leading to black ice or rain on the roads, driving in Ilford should be a breeze. Pedestrians always get priority so ensure you keep your eye out.
  • Mini hire cars in Ilford are around 50% cheaper than other car types, on average
