Car Rental Styles in Ireland

Keep in mind that when you rent a car, just like here in the United States, you are renting a particular class of car and not a specific make and model. If you rent an economy car, the rental agency may have several different makes to choose from and you're given what is available at the time of check-in.

If you are looking to rent a car without accommodations or airfare then I suggest using Auto Europe for your rental -- they're the lowest price for rental cars throughout Europe when booked separately. When purchasing in combination with airfare and/or accommodations like Irish B↦Bs, Irish Hotels, or Irish Castles -- please request ask for a free Ireland Price Quote Request and I'll make sure you get a package deal.

You'll want to rent the smallest size comfortable for your trip. Please read our Driving Hints and Tips: Choosing Car for help on this subject.
