How long does it take to drive from Birmingham to London Heathrow Airport ? United Kingdom Q&A
I really can't figure out the speeding problem when driving in the UK! The first few days I was not familiar with driving on the right, so I drove very slowly. There were always cars behind me, and I still got a speeding ticket! However, British people drive incredibly fast. Do they have a monthly speeding ticket ? United Kingdom Q&A
Can anyone share experience renting diesel cars? Watching Sang's video, he mentioned that to reduce carbon emissions, diesel cars need to add urea. We have a 10-day trip and we didn't add any urea! However, we have to pay a fee every day. This time we rented a diesel car from SIXT in the Balkans, and the cost was much higher than that of gasoline cars ? United Kingdom Q&A
Do I need to rent a GPS when driving in the UK? Can I just use Google Maps ? United Kingdom Q&A
Yesterday when renting a car at Sixt Heathrow, we originally booked a Skoda Superb Estate. When renting the car, the waiter said the car was too small and tried to upgrade us to a BMW. I refused. The car looked very good and the boot was big enough to fit all four of our suitcases. However, the car showed that the tyre pressure was not enough, so they gave us a Mercedes 220 instead. But the car screen showed that we had to add AdBlue when we drove more than 700 miles. The waiter said we didn't have to worry about it. After we started driving, the screen showed that we had to add oil the next time we refuelled. After driving for an hour, we arrived in Oxford and the car started to lose power. We couldn't even get it to go fast. We could only drive slowly. In this situation, is there something wrong with the car that we need to call for roadside assistance? Have any of you ever experienced this ? United Kingdom Q&A
May I ask if there are any restrictions on the number of people who can sit in a car when driving in the UK now ? United Kingdom Q&A
Could you please ask everyone again, our last stop is London, and we may stay in London for about 4 or 5 days. Is it more convenient to drive around London during that time or to return the car and take public transportation ? United Kingdom Q&A
What is the lowest speed limit for driving in the UK ? United Kingdom Q&A
Thank you, madam. It will take some time to get used to driving on the right side in my home country. Also, it's true that large seven-seater cars don't come in automatic transmission. I'm hoping to upgrade to an automatic transmission by paying a little extra. And I'm also wondering if there aren't many cars in the UK, so starting out shouldn't be too difficult, right ? United Kingdom Q&A
Do any of you British friends have experience Road trip? Is the road in the Peak District easy to drive on? How do you pay for parking in the UK? Could you please tell us in detail? I heard that you cannot use a universal card from China and cannot use coins ? United Kingdom Q&A
I will arrive in London on September 20th and plan to drive a rental car from there on the 23rd. My planned route is: London - Oxford - Windsor Castle - Manchester - York - Windermere - Edinburgh - Skye - Edinburgh (September 30th). Is anyone traveling the same route ? United Kingdom Q&A
Could it be a communication issue? When we picked up the car at Heathrow, they also said we didn't have comprehensive insurance and tire insurance. We showed them the contract for comprehensive insurance purchased in China, so they didn't try to sell us anything, and they even upgraded the car for us, giving us a diesel car. We specifically asked if there were any additional fees, confirmed that there were none, and then picked up the car and left ? United Kingdom Q&A
Two people will travel to UK by train and bus in June. We found that there are fewer bus services in Cotswold, which is not very convenient. We will stay in Moreton-in-Marsh on June 19th and plan to visit Broadway, Stow-on-the-Wold and other small towns on June 20th. We will stay in Bourton-on-the-Water that night. Do you want to share a car and travel around together ? United Kingdom Q&A
By the way, I want to remind everyone that when we went to Stratford, we visited Shakespeare's birthplace and parked the car in a roadside parking lot, where we paid the fee at the automatic payment machine. When we returned, we found a parking ticket on the car. It turns out that some of the parking spaces in this parking lot belong to private individuals or businesses, and permission is required to park there. The £100 fine was issued by the parking company, which is really frustrating. I'm not sure if this kind of situation is mandatory to pay ? United Kingdom Q&A
