Getting carried away at Columbia Road Market

"My favourite journey was a trip from Columbia Road Flower Market - the Zipcar was perfect for me! I got up early on a Sunday, took some cash and went plant shopping. I got a little over excited and bought a massive selection of large and small plants. With heaving bags full of plants and a large plant in each arm, I thought I needed a Zipcar to rescue me! I found one just around the corner and loaded it up with all my bargain finds. The car ended up looking like a greenhouse on wheels and I got some funny looks at the traffic lights!"

Family beach time

“On a whim my daughter and I hopped into a nearby Zipcar and drove to West Wittering beach. It was one of the loveliest off the cuff things we’ve done in a long while. On the way back my daughter kept saying ‘that was the best day ever, mummy, thank you.”

Jess, Merton

Trip down memory lane

"My most memorable Zipcar journey was when I drove back to my hometown where I grew up and even went to my old house. It was still occupied by the family that moved in after us! We had a chat and relieved some memories, it was a lovely time."

Russ, Kingston

Supporting refugee children

"I started shooting a documentary about a football team made up of refugee children, all of whom had recently arrived in the UK. Football was a way of helping them socialise and learn English. I would get a Zipcar with all my camera equipment to Hackney Marshes and then all over London filming their matches."

Getting confidence driving in London

"From moving house, to trips to Ikea, to picnics in the park, Zipcar has made our life in London SO much easier! For me, the most memorable time was the first time I drove over Tower Bridge. It may not seem like a massive deal, but for years I was terrified of driving through London, but since I’ve been using Zipcar I’ve got a lot more confidence and now I quite enjoy it (minus the traffic!)"
