Question 5

What kind of rental car should I get for East Side?

Accepted Answer

East Side is a few miles outside of the center of Vancouver, so we imagine you'll be doing a bit of driving. If you intend to use East Side as a base from which to discover the city, opt for a smaller ride. Nothing beats a compact vehicle for squeezing into those crowded downtown parking spots. Alternatively, if you're moving away from the bright lights and traffic, go for something with a larger engine and more room to move. Not many visitors regret splashing out that little bit extra on a full-size or a premium car.

Question 6

Should I get a luxury rental car in East Side?

Accepted Answer

You'll be pleased to hear that there's a huge range of luxury vehicles to rent in East Side. What you opt for depends on your funds and what you plan to do. Prestige vehicles are hard to beat if you're all about comfort and class. If you're splurging, why not book a high-end SUV, or perhaps a flashy medium-sized vehicle? On the other hand, if you just need a set of wheels to whiz around town in at the cheapest price possible, we can help you out with a versatile compact vehicle (or something else that won't burn a hole in your pocket).
