Welcome to Wimbledon Car Hire Services. These Terms of Service govern your access to our website and vehicle rental options. By using our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking confirmation or upon vehicle collection. This document outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations related to the rental. In cases of discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Renting a vehicle with us requires:
- To hire a vehicle in Wimbledon, you must be at least 21 years old. Note that age restrictions may vary based on the vehicle type, with potential additional fees for drivers under 25. A valid full driving licence, appropriate for the chosen vehicle category, must be held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. You will need to present valid identification and proof of your current address, as well as provide payment information and a security deposit. Any further requirements outlined in the Rental Agreement must also be met.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, over the phone, or directly at our Wimbledon office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. Prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Wimbledon, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and must be signed. Ensure the vehicle is returned in the same condition as it was collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and charged accordingly. Return the vehicle with the same fuel level as received; refueling fees will apply if it is returned with less fuel. Late returns may incur additional fees, so please contact us promptly if you anticipate a delay. You will be responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges incurred during your rental, as well as an administration fee.
Insurance and Liability in Wimbledon
- All rentals in Wimbledon include basic third-party insurance. Full details regarding coverage and excess amounts can be found in your Rental Agreement. Options for additional insurance may be offered to limit your financial liability. It is advisable to review these options thoroughly. You remain liable for any damage or loss up to the insurance excess amount, unless additional insurance is obtained. Damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms will be your responsibility, irrespective of insurance coverage.
Cancellation and Modifications
Cancellation and amendment policies are subject to change based on the type of booking and the notice provided. For precise details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows may incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Vehicle Uses
- The vehicle must not be used for any illegal activities. This includes racing, off-roading, or similar dangerous pursuits. Transporting hazardous materials is prohibited. Sub-letting the vehicle or allowing unauthorized drivers is not allowed. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, exceeding passenger limits, or operating outside designated geographical boundaries without prior consent is strictly forbidden.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental cancellation and fees.
8. Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Wimbledon will not be responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the rental amount paid in the previous 12 months. This limitation does not affect our liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence or for fraud.
Legal Framework
These Terms are regulated by the laws of England and Wales. Any legal disputes will fall under the jurisdiction of the relevant courts in this region.
10. Terms Update
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes take effect immediately upon posting on our website. Your ongoing use of our services indicates acceptance of the revised Terms.
