    Id say it will be pretty difficult to find one..Have you tried Avis.. Would you know anyone perhaps who already has a car parents, friend who might be willing to let you borrow it for the weekend. If so it would probably be cheaper and easier to get put on their insurance or something

    Enterprise will rent to a 21 year old. Got a fiesta from them for a month for someone who was visiting for a month.

    Apparently the Enterprise website only offers two age-ranges: 23-24 and 25+.

    And well, even if you are above the "riskier ages" the policy with all rental companies when renting a car in Ireland is that you have to have a Credit card with atleast 2.000 euro limit on it. Debit cards are not generally accepted. Not everyone has such a card, especially at age 21.

    Dont rely on the websites.
    Give them a call, if you have a full licence for 2 years you should be ok.

    This is most definitely NOT true!!!
    I worked for Budget Car Rental before and a credit card is a credit card. Doesnt matter what limit is you can still charge XXX to it. It just means that persons bank has a free chance to fleece them for interest.
