Richmond is an upmarket area of London that has lots of visitors throughout the year. Due to it being a busy place, it’s suggested that you use a compact car like a Ford Fiesta. This will make driving in busy traffic and parking easier. However, if you’re planning to take your vehicle to the Surrey countryside, you will benefit from having something more robust, like a Kia Sportage SUV. These are great for steep hills and a range of terrains which you might encounter in the countryside.
