The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in Great Britain traditionally include the following vehicles: Audi A4, Volvo V50, Honda Accord, Audi A3, Toyota Avensis, Mazda 6 and others.
The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.
Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Dover borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.
If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Dover might be delayed for a day or two.
Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.
We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Dover!
Rental process FAQ
Just like in many countries, in the UK there is a system “penalty” points for drivers who do not follow traffic regulations. Drivers are charged a different amount of points for different violations. When the number of points reaches the critical level, this driver loses his driving license temporarily.
Foreigners, who plan to travel in the countryside for the first time, are recommended to specify the location of gas stations in advance. If petrol stations are not rare close to settlements, in the countryside there are many deserted roads with no petrol stations.
Drivers, who prefer motorcycles, are not allowed to drive on local roads without a helmet. They also must wear special clothes with fluorescent strips.
