Car clubs for students

Car clubs are a great way to use a vehicle without owning it. No need to worry about servicing or maintenance, no need to pay the vehicle tax as this is managed by the car club. There are a range of modern vehicles available on demand and there is no time limit. 

How it works:

  • Cars are located throughout the city.
  • Booked through a central office online.
  • Cars can be hired 24 hours a day for periods of as little as an hour at a time.
  • Annual fees and hourly rate will be paid for by direct debit.
