If you've hit 70, car rental in Europe can be difficult - by Ed Perkins

If you're age 69 or over - and planning to rent a car in Europe this summer - make sure you find an agency that allows you to rent and drive a car.

According to the latest compilation I could find, travelers of any age can rent cars in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden or Switzerland.

A few countries, however, impose constraints: Denmark: Some rental agencies impose a maximum age of 80. Czech Republic, Greece: Some rental agencies impose a maximum age of 70. Poland, Slovakia and Turkey: Some rental agencies apply an age limit of 70 to some car classes.
