Frequently Asked Questions
Can I drive a rented Bentley at top speed on unrestricted sections of the German Autobahn?
While driving on unrestricted sections (ohne Tempolimit) is legal in Germany, vehicles must always be operated with due care, respecting weather conditions and traffic density. Vehicle insurance mandates driving with due care and attention; negligence or reckless driving invalidates insurance coverage. Track driving, racing, or off-road use is strictly prohibited.
What happens if I return my Bentley to Munich Airport with less fuel than when I collected it?
Vehicles are dispatched with a full tank of fuel and should be returned at the same level. If returned with missing fuel, the local branch will refill the tank and charge the cost of the missing fuel plus a refueling service handling fee directly against your security deposit.
Are winter tyres and ski racks available for luxury SUV rentals at Munich Airport?
Yes, rental vehicles dispatched during winter months comply fully with statutory German winter tyre regulations. Accessories such as ski racks and child seats can be pre-booked upon request to ensure your Bentley Bentayga is fully equipped for alpine trips to Garmisch-Partenkirchen or Austria.
