What type of car is recommended for driving in Paisley?

You’ll face a bit of a pleasant dilemma when you’re looking at what type of car to hire when you’re visiting Paisley. It’s tempting to get something that can take on the surrounding Scottish countryside like a 4x4 or to enjoy the secondary roads in a luxury saloon. On the other hand, a more compact city car will likely make a more convenient choice if you’re more inclined to enjoy everything that’s on offer in the city itself, particularly in the busier areas mentioned above.

What’s the speed limit in Paisley?

Don’t be lulled into being lax about speed limits by the relaxed setting of the city. Keep a sharp eye out for speed camera alerts, particularly on Paisley Road itself, on Renfrew Road, and the Glenburn Road section of town where it intersects Caplethill Road and Glennifer Road. The speed limit in the centre of the city and its residential areas is 30mph. As you move outside these zones, the speed limit increases to 60mph on the motorways.

Where are the best places to park in Paisley?

Parking is really reasonably priced in Paisley, at around £0.60 for 2h and £2.40 for all-day parking. Look specifically for the Bridge Street Car Park, the ones at the north-west and south-west ends of Cross Street and on Glen Lane.

Car hire in Paisley will pay off when you enjoy the freedom it will give you to explore the city and the Scottish countryside in which it’s set. Top of the list is Glennifer Braes Country Park, which overlooks the city and requires a short drive. Barshaw Park is another place worth visiting. In the centre of town, it pays to choose a hire car in Paisley as your means of transport, especially if you’d like to take in all the historical sites here, like Coats Observatory and Fountain Gardens. If you love architecture, Paisley Abbey and Thomas Coats Memorial Baptist Church are fine specimens.
Paisley is pretty well situated to reach by air travel, as it’s only just over 2.5 miles away from Glasgow International Airport. This is a large airport with all the modern facilities that will make it very easy for you to complete your Paisley car hire there after you’ve pre-booked. You won’t have any problem locating the hire companies, as they’re all right outside the terminal building in two dedicated locations: next to domestic arrivals and also right outside Terminal 2. Whether you prefer Budget, Avis, Hertz or another brand, they’re all highly visible in the airport’s car rental centre.
Paisley is a highly pedestrianised city, with specific pedestrian zones that you’ll need to be aware of when using car hire in Paisley. This specifically applies to Paisley High Street, which used to be closed entirely to vehicle traffic, but which has since been opened in the evenings and overnight only. As a result, there is a very strong pedestrian presence in this central area of town at night, and cars are expected to respect this, so exercise caution and drive a bit slower than the speed limit.
When rush hours come around in Paisley, which are at the typical times between 08:00 and 09:00 and again between 16:00 and 17:00, the most affected areas and streets are the centre of town, just before you get to the pedestrianised area through which the High Street runs. Try to avoid the roads around St James’s junction as well, particularly where it intersects with the M8. Christie Street is another road that can get congested.
Small rental cars in Paisley are around 57% cheaper than other car types, on average

The experience of pick up is quite good. No waiting in line. But as usual, the rental insurance was a bit of pressure. The agent did not allow me to take the car unless I showed the print out of the insurance coverage from my credit card. He didn’t accept the car rental insurance coverage of my American Express online. But anyway, for the peace of mind, I bought the full cover insurance. The car is quite good, but it’s not clean. The return was OK. There was a lot of people in the waiting area to pick up the car and waiting for the shuttle bus because it’s raining. The shuttle bus to the airport took a while to come. My experience is that it’s cheaper than other car rental and it is quite OK

My appointment was scheduled for 10pm. I showed up around 10:20 PM, because my husband’s checked bag was on the plane after us. I assumed this wouldn’t be an issue, since normally the process of renting a car takes some time. When I showed up, I was told that the staff left at 10pm. They didn’t bother calling us to tell us. Apparently, they ONLY call you if you include your flight number on the reservation. When I showed up the next morning to get the car, mind you the entire reservation was paid for in advance, I was told the car was given away. I then had to pay an extra $400 for a different car. I asked for a refund for the first reservation, but nothing was given to me.

Agents used sales pressure and up sales tactics to earn more on their commissions. They try to charge us extra unnecessary fees twice, and I had to confront agent about his trickery on two occasions. I would never rent another vehicle from this company or recommended.

I wasn't given a car as Sixt wouldn't accept my temporary license. The gentleman at the desk was very helpful - he checked all the other agencies and took me to one that accepted my license - I had to pay £200 more than the rental I'd booked with you. I did appreciate that my original rental was refunded immediately.
