In May, we got a Fiat Station Wagon from Hertz. They stated that we would get a Ford Mondeo Wagon or equivalent. The Fiat worked fine for 4 adults, our 4 - 22" rollarounds plus our 4 small shoulder bags. I would think you'd almost have to have a station wagon for 4 adults and that much luggage. <BR><BR>As each car rental company has different car models, it might be helpful if you could tell us what rental car company you are looking to use.

daisy,<BR>You said the key words-"17 days" This allows you to lease rather than rent a car.<BR>Advantages are you pick up a brand new car of your choice with all insurance included with no deductible and no value added taxes.<BR>I've used and was very happy with Auto Euope this past summer.<BR>http://www.autoeurope.com/<BR>Call them for a brouchere/pricing and have them recommend the size car you will need.

Am not familiar with that model, but it should be fine. The prices also seems right. I think we paid about $750 for 10 days thru Hertz.
