Nottingham car hire

Economy compacts and 4x4s are ideal for navigating the small city streets with their tight corners, and it’s much easier to find street parking than with larger hire cars. If you intend to spend much time on the road, the size of your party may play a key role, so choose the option that offers maximum comfort and value for money.

Within the confines of the city with its significant pedestrian and vehicular traffic, the speed limit is 30mph for all vehicles. Cars and vans are allowed a maximum speed of 60mph on single carriageways such as the A610, but you can go as fast as 70mph on dual carriageways like the A52 and motorways like the M1. Be advised that there is a plethora of static and red light speed cameras all around Nottingham, especially along the A60 and the A610 where there are major junctions.

Generally speaking, you can park your Nottingham hire car on the street for free between 20:00-8:00. There are also several car parks within the city centre, like NCP Nottingham Maid Marian Way and Lace Market Car Park, offering hourly and daily rates. Wollaton Hall Car Park offers all-day parking for £5, so you can enjoy an entire afternoon of fun and games with friends and family at this historical site.
