Question 4

What kind of rental car should I get for Hornsey?

Accepted Answer

Hornsey is a few miles outside of the center of London, so we assume you'll be doing your fair share of driving. If you're going to use Hornsey as a base from which to explore the city, pick a smaller ride. There's nothing like a compact vehicle for squeezing into those tiny parking spaces. Alternatively, if you're heading away from the bright lights and traffic, book something with a little more power and legroom. Not many travelers regret splashing out that little bit extra on a full-size or a premium car.

Question 5

Should I get a luxury rental car in Hornsey?

Accepted Answer

You'll be pleased to hear that there's a huge variety of both economy and high-end rental vehicles in Hornsey. What you go for is largely dependent on what you're willing to spend and what you plan to do. Specialty and prestige vehicles offer the best in mod cons and comfort. If you want to treat yourself, why not pick an elite SUV, or perhaps a slick medium-sized vehicle? Alternatively, if you just need a set of wheels to whiz around town in at the cheapest price possible, maybe go for an economy compact vehicle (or something else that won't blow your budget).
