On rural lanes, the top speed you can go is 60 mph, whereas on motorways you shouldn’t go faster than 70 mph.

5.2 Fair
Dec 2019
Pros:
Shuttle driver and staff was very friendly.Cons:
I was told I had to downgrade my rental or upgrade because the shuttle driver took me to the wrong terminal. Because downgrading wouldn’t work, I had to love up to the larger vehicle and my rental rate DOUBLED!!!10.0 Wonderful
Aug 2019
Pros:
I had not even heard of Sixt before, but this experience gave me confidence to use the service again and to recommend it to others.10.0 Wonderful
Apr 2019

Jan 2019
Pros:
Good service at both ends. Good car.Cons:
Pickup at Heathrow was difficult to find, however we could have used the bus service and that would have simplified.3.2 Poor
Jan 2019
Pros:
NothingCons:
Claim it is in the airport but you have to walk 20min. Better take a shuttle! Staff was very unfriendly and told us they only hold the car for one hour when we arrived with a 2 hours delay... they couldn’t supply the car we booked but instead of offering a bigger car they tried to sell us a smaller one! It had a strong smell of cigarettes and several dents not recorded in the inspection sheet. We had to refuse and after 1:30 of waiting/negotiation we finally magically had the car we booked. Will never use Sixt again2.0 Poor
Nov 2018
Pros:
Absolutely nothingCons:
Did not have the car I ordered but were willing to rent me a bigger car for considerably more. Insisted I buy their insurance at a ridiculous cost even though I had documentation for ample coverage from the US. Totally belligerent and disrespectful. This was the terminal 3 office at LHR. Best decision was to walk away. Do you know that we do have options???Spaceships

Some Egham car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Egham.
