Do many people hire Caravelles?

We have a fairly reasonable sized multi seat hire fleet, catering for 6,7,9 and 17 seats. No one else within 20 miles does what we do, so a fairly captive market. The 7 seat market is a funny one, as the standard mpv will take 7 people, but not 7 lots of luggage, the Caravelle will do this perfectly. We also do a few corporate rentals, and they are always after upmarket 7 seat vehicles. It will compliment our fleet perfectly.

So in answer to your question, most certainly yes!
