FAQ

What do I need to provide to hire a car?

Following booking of your rental you will under usual circumstances receive an email confirming the full rental details. In that email we will request:

• Copy of all drivers driving licenses (both parts if UK or International Drivers License if not EU, EEA, US, AUS, NZ or Swiss driving license holder).
• Copy of your utility bill.
• Copy of passport.
• Download driver form

These documents will ideally be forwarded in advance of your rental by fax or email. Please also have copies with you at the time of vehicle handover.  

These terms may be different if the car is being supplied by a partner company.

Do CC4H have any cars for sale?

Not right now - we only offer hire cars at the moment. However we may offer luxury cars for sale in the future, so check back soon.

How does the whole process work?

Customers make an enquiry via the website or phone. We then follow the following 7 Steps -

1. Respond to the enquiry providing full details of the rental including the price and terms.
2. Customer accepts our quote and reserves the car by phone, fax or paypal.
3. We email the customer with the reservation details and request copies of driving licences etc..
4. We process the deposit on the day or day before the rental starts.
5. Customer collectes the car and heads off for an enjoyable rental.
6. Customer returns the car.
7. We refund the deposit and send the customer an email saying the refund has been made and thank you for choosing Cool Cars 4 Hire.

Nice, simple and professional.

This process may be different is a partner company is supplying the car.
