Sixt Car Hire is open every day of the week at Manchester Airport, from 07:00 to 23:00.

A drivers license must also have been held by the primary renter in his/her country of residence for at least one year prior to the rental. Similar to other car hire companies, younger drivers under the age of 25 will pay a higher rental rate at Sixt, in the form of a ‘young driver fee’.

Vehicles available at Sixt range from the small and practical Smart For Two to the large VW Transporter Shuttle SWB, which can accommodate up to nine passengers. The Smart For Two, as its name suggests, is great for just two people. An excellent car for city driving, but with not much space for luggage, therefore a larger vehicle would be more suitable for longer road trips. Vehicles with two to four doors, and suitable for up to five people, include the Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa and Fiat Punto. These are also nice cars for simple transport within the city. They have space for one large and one smaller item of luggage. Of a similar size, customers can also hire the Citroen Cle vie, or electric car.

Vehicles with four doors, and seating of up to five passengers, include the Ford Focus, Vauxhall Astra, Kia Ceed and VW Golf. These are vehicles with a manual transmission, and they have room for one large luggage item and two smaller items. There are also automatic vehicles available from Sixt in a similar size range, such as the Ford Focus Aut. and Peugeot 308 Aut. The Volkswagen golf can be an automatic vehicle as well. Estate vehicles include the Ford Focus Estate and VW Golf Estate.

An estate vehicle available for drivers in this age category is the VW Jetta Estate, seating up to five people. Vehicles available which have good space for luggage include the VW Touran, Vauxhall Zafira and Chrysler Voyager, storing up to three large luggage items and two smaller items.

Most of the larger vehicles offered by Sixt require the primary renter to be at least 25 years of age. Vehicles ideal for seven people include the VW Sharan, VW Galaxy and Kia Carens, while a vehicle for nine people is the Ford Transit 9-seater. If you still need space for more passengers, there is the Ford Transit Minibus, seating fifteen people, and even the Ford Transit Minibus seating seventeen people.
