KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Solihull

  • With a car hire in Solihull, you can enjoy greater flexibility compared to if you made the same trip using an alternative method of transport, like a bus, taxi or train. This is because you are able to come and go as you please, rather than having to adhere to public transport schedules. For example, if you were to drive to Hampton in Arden, it would take about 15min, whereas this same journey on a bus takes around 25min and also requires you to rely on the bus timetable.
  • Birmingham International Airport (BHX) offers a wide range of car hire agencies that you can use, so it will be easy for you to get your dream vehicle. For example, if you wanted to hire a car from SIXT, you can find the branch quickly upon arrival at the terminal. The desk is located nearby to the arrivals lounge, which is well signposted. Here you will collect the keys before being taken to your car.
  • When you get a car hire in Solihull, you will see that it’s a popular town for tourists who want to enjoy the beautiful scenery that surrounds the market town. Due to its popularity, it can get very busy in the centre. Therefore, it’s important that you drive carefully, as people often cross the road in areas that are not official places for pedestrians to cross. There are also lots of cyclists and mopeds in the UK, with Solihull being no different. To ensure everyone’s safety, you should regularly check your mirrors, especially when you’re about to turn or if you’re at a roundabout.
  • When you get your Solihull car hire, you will find that the town can get very busy with traffic, especially during the weekday rush hour. This tends to be from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., when lots of locals head to Birmingham and back for work. If you want to avoid the busier times on the road, then you should stay off them during these times. The A41, or the Solihull Bypass as it’s known, is one road that takes the brunt of the traffic. If possible, try and find an alternative route rather than taking this road.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Solihull?

    Solihull is a market town that has lots of visitors who come to explore the beautiful surroundings, like Elmdon Park.

If you were to head out to the countryside, such as to the Lickey Hills in Birmingham, then you will want something with a bit more bite. For instance, an SUV like a Renault Captur will offer a better grip on gradients and superior handling on country roads.

  • What’s the speed limit in Solihull?

    It’s important that you stay within the speed limits when you’re driving your car hire in Solihull; otherwise, you could be prosecuted by law enforcement or have an accident. On motorways, you can drive at 70 mph (113 km/h) and on rural roads, at 60 mph (96 km/h). In urban areas, drive at 30 mph (48 km/h), but if you drive near a school or hospital, the limit is likely to drop to 20 mph (32 km/h).

  • Where are good places to park in Solihull?
