Buy or hire the Macan if...
Porsche's compact SUV, built to feel like a sports car to drive rather than a family workhorse. Its turbocharged engine and sub-6-second 0-60 time put it ahead of most rivals in this size class, which suits hirers after a Porsche badge and driving feel in a car that still seats a family.

Buy or hire the HiAce if...
Toyota's long-running commuter van, converted by UK operators into a chauffeured minibus rather than sold to private buyers. Its 10-seat capacity and diesel range suit airport transfers and group chauffeur work more than everyday van hire.
