MPV Hire

Picking the right hire MPV for your needs is a vital part of the hiring process, which is why the Rent Direct team is available every step of the way.

An MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle) is ideal if you need extra space for people or luggage. Unlike a standard-sized car, MPVs can carry extra luggage and extra people. Also referred to as ‘people carriers’, many MPVs seat seven to nine people, making them ideal for families or groups of friends. 

Whether you’re heading off on a holiday adventure, require a bigger vehicle for an airport run, or need to transport staff for business purposes, we can help. MPVs boast a combination of practicality and comfort, making it an ideal hire vehicle choice for many occasions. 

At Rent Direct, we also specialise in Car Hire and Van Hire, serving customers in East Anglia and beyond. Our great quality, competitively priced hire vehicles come equipped with everything needed to make your journey as comfortable as possible, including air-con, sat nav and Bluetooth.

When you hire an MPV from Rent Direct, you’ll also benefit from fully comprehensive insurance and breakdown cover as standard, meaning you can travel with complete peace of mind.

Our MPV Fleet 

The Rent Direct online booking system allows you to search through a choice of makes and models from leading manufacturers, such as Ford, Kia and Volkswagen. Each model in our line-up is under two years of age, so you can drive with the confidence that your Rent Direct MPV is not only new, but reliable too.

If you have a lot of luggage to carry, an MPV is the perfect choice of vehicle. Our range of larger MPVs prove handy if you have mobility issues or are carrying passengers with physical disabilities. The excess space in the boot is ideal for big pieces of equipment, such as wheelchairs or double prams. We’ll be only too happy to help you select the right type of MPV for your travel requirements.

Insurance Excess and Deposit

Unlike a broker that leases cars from a third-party, we’re an independent company and we own all of our vehicles, which is why we want to make sure our fleet is well looked after. Vehicle hire excess insurance is at the cost to you, the hirer, which is stated when you book a vehicle online from us. 

We require a £200 deposit to secure your hire vehicle. This will be refunded to you in full upon safe return of our vehicle in an undamaged condition and with a full tank of fuel.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

We have a comprehensive selection of electric vehicles available. Please get in touch with us for more information on our electric fleet.

Are you able to accommodate last minute vehicle hire requests?

We work hard to ensure we always have something available for last minute hires. Whilst we will almost always be able to accommodate next day collections, for on-the-day requests, get in touch with us and a friendly member of our team will do their best to get your rental vehicle needs sorted sharpish.

Does your fleet contain different MPV sizes?

An MPV is ideal if you need extra space for people or luggage. Unlike a standard-sized car, MPVs can carry extra luggage and extra people. Our fleet includes a wide range of small to large MPVs, from compact 7-seater SUVs like the Skoda Kodiaq to 9-seater MPVs like the Ford Tourneo Custom.

Do you have a minimum rental period?

Here at Rent Direct, we don’t have a minimum retention period to rent a vehicle from us. However, to benefit from our most competitive prices, the longer you hire the vehicle for, the better the price we can offer.

Is mileage restricted on car hire?

You will need to specify the mileage you expect to drive during your vehicle rental period. Doing so will mean that we can give you a more accurate and favourable quote for your hire agreement.
