Car rental on 9-month licence in Spain/Portugal?
-
02-02-2012 2:53am#1I'm hoping to fly to either Seville or Faro, drive to a friend's house (the public transport isn't great) and then drive to Tarifa to get the ferry to Morocco.
I got my full license in August 2011, and hoping to travel in April 2012, which means I'll have had it 9 months.
Some of the websites don't mention it, and the ones that do, say you have to have had your license one or two years.
Does anyone know if there is a company that will take my 9 month license, or would I get away with it on a company that wants it a year? Are the strict on that sort of thing in Spain and Portugal?
Also, if anyone has made this trip, advice appreciated.

With all the big ones, Hertz,Sixt,Europcar,Avis, Budget etc its always 1 year minimum.
2 Years for some.
Wouldn't chance it, tried that years ago and ended up getting the bus from the Airport.
AFAIK the requirement is there from the Insurance underwriters for the rental companies, not really a requirement that they set themselves.0 -
