Once you have decided a flexi car lease is the right arrangement, the next question is which car. Euro Hire Drive runs every group from a small city car to a premium saloon on flexi terms from our depot in Livingston. This guide matches each to the journeys people actually make around West Lothian, Edinburgh, Glasgow and the rest of Scotland.
The choices
| Group | Typical car | The journeys it suits |
|---|---|---|
| Small | Toyota Aygo, Renault Clio | Commuting across Livingston and Bathgate, town parking, one or two people |
| Medium | VW Golf, Kia Ceed, Toyota C-HR | The M8 to Edinburgh or Glasgow every day, a small family |
| Large and SUV | Nissan Qashqai, Kia Sportage, Toyota RAV4, MG ZS | Family life, winter roads, weekends in the Highlands |
| Pickup and 4×4 | Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, BMW X5 | Towing, sites, rural work, big loads |
| Premium | Mercedes-Benz C-Class, GLE, BMW 7 Series | Client visits, long motorway days, comfort |
Models are typical for each group; availability changes as the fleet turns over, so we confirm the exact car when you enquire.
Matching the car to the month
A new contract in Edinburgh. If it is a daily commute from West Lothian, the medium group does it in comfort and economy. If you will be parking in the city, the small group is easier to live with.
A family that has just moved. Take the large or SUV group for the school runs, the trips to see relatives and the boot full of a new house’s shopping, and swap down when things settle.
A business that has won a job. A pickup or a 4×4 for the site, a medium car for the account manager, and a business account so it is all on one invoice.
A winter in the Highlands. An SUV or 4×4 for the roads and the weather, on flexi terms so it goes back in spring.

Can I change group mid-lease?
Yes. Swapping the car when your needs change is the reason flexi exists; give us a call and we arrange it.
Are automatics available?
Yes, in most groups. Tell us your preference when you enquire.
Can I take a flexi car to England or on the ferry?
Anywhere on the UK mainland is fine. Tell us your plans when you book so we can advise on ferries and longer trips.
