What type of car is recommended for driving in Liverpool?

If you’re in a larger group, passenger van hire is also available from almost any provider of car hire in Liverpool.
Where are the best places to park in Liverpool?
As in many large UK cities, on-street parking can be hard to find in Liverpool. However, there is a lot of free parking available throughout the city if you get there early enough – look for the council car parks in Dale Street, Hunter Street and Lambert Street for those with more spaces. Otherwise, Fontenoy Car Park is also free. Most of the paid car parks charge around £1.40-2.30 (about R30-50) per hour.
