Ride your way
Colchester to Stansted airport is around 35 miles west across Essex, mostly on the A120 rather than motorways, one of the shorter of our long distance airport transfers. It is a short distance, but the rail journey takes far longer than the distance suggests, and that is why this route is booked.
North Essex travellers use Stansted as their home airport, and it is mostly leisure travel: vacations, weekend trips, and visiting family members.
Colchester to Stansted
The real problem for rail here is that the two towns simply aren't on the same line.
Colchester sits on the route into London Liverpool Street; Stansted is on a separate line heading out of the capital in a different direction. So for two places about 35 miles apart, the train means going into London and back out again, with a change - at least 1 hour 30 minutes to cover a distance a car drives in a straight line.
It's one of the clearest cases among all our routes. Here, the car isn't an indulgence - it's just common sense.
Pick up location, dates, times, and flight numbers are to be entered in case of airport pick-up services. Choose the size of car according to luggage and not number of passengers at holiday time. Compare Stansted airport transfers for the terminal end, Cambridge to Stansted transfers for the other main route to the airport, and airport transfers in London if other airports are to be used.
Trusted to supply the UK's most desirable manufacturers
About 35 miles direct, not 1 hour 30 minutes via London. Put in your route and see the difference.
Stansted charges for drop-off, at a higher rate beyond 15 minutes, and both rates come under the comparison cost along with the tolls on the route.
On the day of collection, your flight is tracked and your pickup will be based on the actual landing time of the flight, with 60 minutes of complimentary wait time and sign-up service at arrivals.
Terms for cancellation and amendments are provided by each individual company and are stated against each package available.

Booked a Lamborghini Huracan for a weekend in London through Autofusion and the whole process was effortless. Being able to compare supercar hire prices across providers in one place saved me a fortune. Instant booking meant no waiting around for quotes. The luxury car hire selection is genuinely the best I have found in the UK.

Used Autofusion to find a car for our wedding in Manchester and could not be happier. I looked through a few options, found a stunning Rolls Royce Phantom, and booked it the same day. So much easier than ringing round, and the price beat going direct.

I hire a supercar fairly often and Autofusion has become my go to. Comparing what is available around Birmingham is really easy and I always find a good price. Booked a Ferrari 488 Spider in a couple of minutes. Cannot fault it.

Autofusion is my first stop whenever I need something special in London. It shows real prices from different providers, so I always get a good deal. Hired a Bentley Continental GT and the whole thing was smooth from start to finish.
