Default England car/drive hire

Does anyone have advice about hiring a car and driver in England.
We'd like to go as we please, but are chicken to drive. We thought a
car and driver would be a good way to go.

A dammed expensive one though, one company that does
this is 21st Century Saloons and they charge £25 per hour
+mileage over 50 miles .

Trust me driving on the wrong side of the road isnt that
hard , I do it all the time in the USA and Europe.

Failing that use public transport and cabs.

You do realise that it is going to cost you big bucks, don't you? If so,
look at http://www.chauffeurs.biz/index.htm

the speeds are higher in the uk motorways 70 but 85 average (on northern
ones anyway). otherwise don't worry
forget the driver higher unless money no object

Northern ones are no different to Southern ones.

80-90mph is usual. But no different to speeds I experienced driving between
Washington DC and New York.

Driving over here is not that difficult (except London) because you just
follow the car in front and hope he/she is going the same way as you.
Failing that UK public transport is vastly superior to American public
transport due to the fact we have a very high population density in a
small area compared to the USA.

For some strange reason many Americans I have spoken to love our
roundabouts. These are circular road junctions where you give way to
traffic coming from the left (in theory)

What ever option you chose enjoy yourself.

You mean traffic coming from the right of course, if you are talking UK
roads.

I'd strongly advise giving way to traffic coming from your left too!
If they're going that wrong, best avoid!
