Set Realistic Hours at Both Ends

Four stops before lunch leaves little slack for a slow start. Work backwards from the first appointment, allowing an hour for collection, checks and the drive. The return deserves equal thought: handing a car back at five when the office closes at five is a losing bet.

What a Handover Actually Involves

Collection is more than signing and taking keys. Expect a walk-round, fuel level, mileage note and space for your own photos of dents or kerbed alloys. Returning works in reverse: leave time for a final inspection rather than tossing keys across the desk and sprinting for a train.

Sort Drivers and Documents Together

Decide who drives before you enquire, not in the car park. Each driver needs their licence to hand, and adding a second driver later can cost more time than it saves. Line the documents up alongside the itinerary so nothing about the drivers is still undecided when you collect.

Match the Car to the Day's Driving

A day hopping between an industrial estate, a garden centre and two client offices argues for something easy to park. Longer motorway legs shift the maths towards comfort and quieter cruising. Since particular models may be taken on your dates, hold a couple of acceptable shapes in mind.
