Collection and drop off of your hire car

What to bring

On arrival at the car hire rental station, you will need to make sure you have the following documents:

1. Driving Licence: Anyone planning to drive the car will be required to present a valid driving licence that has been held for at least one year. Drivers holding non-British licences should contact us prior to pick-up. If you have a new photo card licence, you must also produce the paper documents that accompany the photo card. We must be advised of any endorsements at the time of booking so that we can advise the car hire company. All persons driving the vehicle must be in possession of their driving licence at all times for inspection by the local authorities. No refunds will be given for rentals rejected if you do not have your licence or if you have not disclosed endorsements.

2. Credit Card: Please note that you will be asked to leave a deposit and an imprint of your credit or debit card on arrival at the airport when you collect your hire car. The deposit ususally amounts to a full tank of petrol and the insurance excess. This amount will be held on your card and provided you return your hire car with a full tank of petrol and the car has not been damaged, no charges will be made to your card.

3. Identification Document: For further identification you may also be required to show your passport.

4. Voucher: You will also be required to present your car rental voucher supplied to you by Coastline.

Collecting the Vehicle

On collecting your car you'll receive a rental agreement. Prior to taking the vehicle, we ask you to check the exterior and interior of the vehicle and before signing the agreement, ensure you are happy with the information noted.

Our car hire company in Corsica will help speed up and smooth your arrival through the airport, by giving you the opportunity to pre-register your driving details. We will send you a pre-registration form in your final holiday documents and will ask you bring this with you, fully completed, allowing for a much speedier registration process.

Cars are collected and returned back to the airport. Delivery/collection to/from the accommodation may be possible, but a charge will apply. For further information and prices, please call our reservations team on 0844 557 1020.

Returning the Vehicle

When returning your vehicle, there are a few things that you will need to take into consideration.

Fuel: Ensure you return the car with the same amount of fuel when you began your rental.

Damage: At the end of the rental the vehicle will be inspected for damage. In the event of any damage you will be liable for the cost of repair up to the insurance excess level taken.

Extending your rental: Should you wish to extend your rental it may be possible subject to notice, vehicle availability and additional payment. All additional charges will be payable in the local currency of the renting country.

Provision of cars
The car hire company can refuse a vehicle to anyone considered unfit or ineligible to drive. In these circumstances we will not be held responsible for the completion of your travel arrangements, for any refunds, compensation or any other costs you may have to pay.

Please note we cannot guarantee the exact model of vehicle you will receive. As fleets of vehicles can vary from country to country we can only advise of the vehicle equivelant you will be issued.

Mechanical difficulties
In the case of breakdown or mechanical difficulties, you must call the car hire company immediately, using the telephone number which appears on the rental agreement. The local car hire company must give authority for repairs or replacement cars. If you are involved in an accident, the local police and car hire company must be contacted. Keep copies of all relevant documentation you are asked to complete. This may be needed if you wish to make an insurance claim.

Finally, we are brokers for the car hire companies. All rentals are subject to the car hire company’s own terms and conditions and the laws of the country where the rental takes place.
