If you want to rent a car in downtown London, check with the London Congestion Charging Zone in the city center when renting a rental car! This is a zone in which a charge, similar to a toll, is levied, which is due from Monday to Friday between 7 a. m. and 6 p. m. and amounts to around 11.50 L per day. Therefore, please inquire when handing over the rental car as to how and where you should best pay this fee, as otherwise you will be subject to severe penalties, which will also apply abroad.

In addition, the M6 motorway north of Birmingham, as well as the use of various tunnels and bridges, will be subject to additional toll charges of up to 5.50 L, but these will remain within a financial ceiling.
