We recently hit a few big milestones, including receiving our 1,000th review for our car hire and car leasing services in York – so what better time to hear what they all had to say?
Today, we’ll dive into those reviews – real customers sharing their thoughts on both our hire and leasing offers – and see what they really think of Autohorn, our cars, and our people.
1) We’re here when you need us most

Car hire is a great way for someone to take a quick trip when they don’t own a car, but for some, hiring a car, or leasing one, is a necessity. An unexpected breakdown, hefty repairs or a gap between giving up one car and purchasing another – life often throws a spanner in the works, but you still need to get to work, right? You still need to do your food shopping and the kids still need to be dropped off at school.
At Autohorn, we’re here when you need us most. Many of our customers come to us because they’re stuck without a car for a few days or weeks, and they just need a helping hand. If you’re experiencing car problems, we’re here to help. Simply email or call, and we’ll make sure you get a car that’s right for you so you don’t have to miss out on anything.
2) Every one of us is here to make your car hire simple

We receive hundreds of reviews just like this, praising our team as helpful, efficient and fantastic – and we absolutely love hearing those words. But these reviews don’t just mention one or two of us, they mention all of us.
Each one of us understands how frustrating it can be to be without a car. Even simple tasks that used to take just a few minutes can quickly turn into arduous chores. That’s why we take pride in helping you collect your hire car and get back to business, with minimal effort on your part.
We also know that, if you’ve never hired a car before, it can seem confusing. That’s why we simplify everything. There’s no need to fill out endless paperwork or obtain a DVLA check code – we’ll handle all of that for you. Car hire has never been easier. Just follow our simple three-step process, and you’re good to go:
- Submit a quick form with a few details
- Choose your vehicle size
- And drive off
3) We’re fast, super-fast

We live in a fast-paced world. No one likes waiting around, and we know it. That’s why, whether you’re hiring for personal use, hiring for business or leasing a car, we’re quick to process your application and get you driving your dream car as soon as possible.
We do this by making car hire in York even simpler. We reduce the amount of effort you have to go through to hire a car. Even our pick-up and drop-off process is designed to save you time and get you back on the road as soon as possible.
4) We’ve got your dream lease or hire car

At Autohorn, we believe that life’s too short to drive a car you hate. That’s why we hire the best cars, so that, rather than just getting from A to B, you can enjoy the ride – and our customers agree.
Whether you’re looking for car or van rental, we aim to stock cars that you’ll actually want to drive. Not only that, but at our car hire in York centres, we only hire out cars that are under a year old. Why? Well, because everybody deserves that new car feeling, whether you’re renting or leasing. We stock a huge range of small, medium, large, and commercial vehicles to suit every need.
