Question 9

What do you need to rent a car in Fernside?

Question 10

What side of the road do you drive on in Fernside?

If you're renting a vehicle in Fernside or planning a road trip in greater New Zealand, be prepared to drive on the left-hand side.

Question 13

Where can I find a Fernside car rental if I am younger than 25?
