I'm looking at van rental for a road trip in the summer London to Scotland. 6 to 8 of us plus luggage
I will be 24 by then, but can't find anywhere that will give me a 8 seater. Most are 30 years min, and some 25 years min
Anyone here help?

this is the overseas travel board, you may be better on the UK one given you are not looking to hire overseas0

I can't find a new post, so thought I would reply here. I work for a rental company and unfortunately, you are going to struggle being under 25 I am afraid. If there are a minimum of 6 plus luggage, you really need a 9 seater (driver plus 8) to give you a little spare room. We couldn't insure you until you are at least 25 with 2 years' experience and i suspect most companies will have the same policy, if not 30, as you say.
Best suggestion is to look for 2 large estates with possibility of roof boxes. summer will be peak time for MPVs, so this may work out considerably cheaper too. Good luck, hope you get it sorted.0
