Cheap Record Car Hire in Alicante

A compact vehicle is easier to park and maneuver in congested city streets.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Alicante, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

When hiring a car in Alicante, be aware that rentals are charged per day. For instance, Record charges per day, so if you rent for more than 24 hours, you’ll incur an additional day’s charge. Plan your hire period to avoid extra costs

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like Record in Alicante. If you only have a debit card, use our website filter to find suitable offers or consider obtaining a credit card. Ensure that the main driver’s card is used to avoid any additional fees.

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.

Research fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Filling up at a local station may be cheaper than paying for fuel through the rental company, especially if they charge higher rates.

Some rental agreements come with mileage limits, while others offer unlimited mileage. Make sure to review the mileage policy to avoid unexpected fees.

When hiring a car in Alicante, choose a car hire deal with a “Full-to-Full” or “Same-to-Same” fuel policy from suppliers like Record. These policies ensure you only pay for the fuel you use, helping you avoid unnecessary costs. While a “Full-to-Empty” policy might seem convenient, it can often be more expensive if you don’t use all the fuel.
