Hyundai Atos

Great little car for short journeys - tho' ground clearance is low - so don't venture off the tarmac (which is hard to avoid at times)!!

what is the best car to hire and the most inexpensive for two people

This is one of the most common rental cars on the island. The tall body creates a lot of interior space while the small exterior dimensions make it easy to drive about. It's comfortable and quite decent to drive, although I had an older model which didn't have PAS which made it hard work on the numerous hairpin bends. Newer models may well have this as standard so it's worth asking.
