Given that you have alternative roads to take when traffic gets congested, you can book any type of saloon to get you around Wakefield. If you’re on a budget, or are going to be forced to travel along the busy roads in rush hour traffic, a more compact city car will probably be a better bet. The Yorkshire countryside is also worth exploring if you’re there on holiday, in which case book yourself a nice and spacious MPV.
