Driving from London to Manchester is a common business route and is frequently travelled by thousands of commuters each day. Be it for business or a city break, the journey from London to Manchester is relatively short and easy. The distance between these too economic giants is 200 miles and the journey can be made in around 3 and a half hours. If it is the case that you are looking to make this journey with no intent to return, then you may like to have a look at our one way car hire services. We have many branches all over London where you can pick up your hire car and get the journey underway.
If you have extra time and your journey is not rushed, then you may wish to take a couple of pit stops whilst driving from London to Manchester. Before switching to the M6 you may wish to take a detour to visit the metropolitan city of Birmingham – home to the Bullring, one of the largest shopping centres in Europe, and birthplace of heavy metal. Further along the route you could veer west and visit the lovely city of Liverpool – a major English city settled on the waterfront and home town of the Beatles!
