Peer to peer car rental is when car owners make their cars available for short term rental. It is similar to \u201ccar clubs\u201d, but instead of using a fleet of cars designed especially for the purpose, it uses cars that are privately owned and already in use. The best known of these is Drivy UK, a\u00a0private car hire<\/strong>\u00a0company that uses the peer to peer car rental model. For more information, go to\u00a0www.drivy.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n
