Cardiff, Great Britain: Hatchback Rental
The most popular models representing the mini, compact, and economy car segments in Cardiff are: Chevrolet Matiz, Toyota Corolla, Hyundai Accent, Suzuki Swift, Toyota Yaris, Toyota Auris and others.

When hiring a budget hatchback, it is definitely worth saving on insurance deposit (franchise). Deposits on small cars in Great Britain vary from 100 to 1.000 euro/dollars. Check the rental conditions of each car in your selection to find a vehicle with a minimum deposit.

If your routes in Great Britain are foreseen to pass through hilly areas or mountains, it is not recommended to consider very small cars for rental. Their engines are usually insufficient for a confident driving on the roads with long or steep climbs.

At the rental office in Cardiff, consider to take a 'Breakdown Assistance' package or ask an officer for a contact data to use in case of a vehicle breakdown. Cheap cars are sometimes unpredictable in operation.

Upon receipt of the rental invoice, please check that all the information, as well as the final payment amount do match the data in your voucher.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe and great trip to Cardiff!

Driving Advices for Great Britain – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
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.
Smoking is prohibited while driving, and speaking on a cell phone is only possible in case you use a headset. Any violation of these rules will result in serious fines.
