For Bath car hire, you don’t need any specific type of car. If you intend to drive around mainly in the central areas of the city, a smaller car would be better, as there are some narrow streets and it is easier to navigate a smaller car through traffic. If you are mainly using the car to explore the surrounding areas, any size car will do. There is a Bath Clean Air Zone in place in the centre of Bath, which has a fee for driving into the centre based on the size of your vehicle. Be sure to check with your hire company whether this charge applies.
The UK uses miles per hour (mph). The speed limit on motorways and dual carriageways is 70 mph (112 km/h). On single carriageways, the speed limit is 60 mph (96 km/h).
