What kind of rental car should I get for Prestwick?

Sure, you can explore Prestwick without a rental car. But with so much to see and do here, having one would make your stay more comfortable. If you're planning to get out of town and into the countryside, pick a ride with some power. A mid-size or full-size SUV will get you to the surrounding canals in roomy style. Spending a lot of your time in the city center? A compact or mini car is a good choice. Driving through narrow lanes and squeezing into tiny parking spaces will be a walk in the park in one of these.

Should I get a luxury rental car in Prestwick?

First of all, there's a great range of both luxury and economy rental vehicles available in Prestwick. What you go with depends on what you're willing to spend and what you're hoping to do. Prestige vehicles offer unparalleled mod cons and comfort. If you want to treat yourself, why not pick an SUV with all the bells and whistles, or perhaps a slick mid-sized sedan? Alternatively, if you just need a car to zip 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 wallet).
