Car clubs own cars that are made available to their members for short term use.   The club covers all the costs of owning and operating the vehicles, such as insurance, tax, fuel, cleaning and servicing.

Members pay an annual membership fee too be a part of a car club and then pay an hourly charge to hire a vehicle and a mileage charge that covers fuel and vehicle wear and tear.

Members can join and book vehicles online and are billed for their use monthly in arrears.
