Car hire in Ireland - licence less than a year old

[farmer]

Does anyone know of a car hire place in Ireland that will let you hire a car when your licence is less than a year old?

Try http://www.argusrentals.com/ (tel. 01-499 9600)

No connection, btw — just a satisfied customer.

Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately both links supplied state in their Terms and Conditions that the driver must have a full clean driving licence for at least two years.

I would ring them though. I know sometimes they will make an exception.

Is your licence less than a year old because you've just got one for the very first time, or for some other reason?

As Ned_ie says, I'd still ring them and ask the question — what have you got to lose?

Do you have your own insurance?....if so, you'll find most will do it, fully comprehensive insurance obviously. Most have a standard 2 year rule, but exceptions will be made...this is a quite time of the year after all. If I were you, I'd try Enterprise Car Rental.
