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 Luton 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 Luton 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 Luton!
Rental process FAQ
In general, traffic in the UK is organized on a very high level. In addition to informative road signs, major roads have numerous intersections, so the possibility of traffic jams is minimal. Road sections, on which traffic jams occur from time to time, are also marked with special signs.
Despite a rich choice of road signs, in the UK you will not find some road signs that are so usual to motorists. For example, you will not see the “main road” sign. The “give way” sign is also extremely rare. Numerous traffic lights are a no less striking feature of the UK roads. There are a lot of them in the territory of settlements.
There is no one universally accepted rule concerning intersections crossing. There is usually a sign next to each of them, and this sign indicates who has a priority. Quite often, there are corresponding marks on the road instead of signs.
