Smaller is better, due to the lack of parking most places. Road rules are kind of a joke, but it's a pretty safe area. You see everything from Mini Coops to Mazarattis. - Mar 2019
Any kind of car would work in the city, but parking will be a challenge due to narrow streets and small parking spaces. Having a car is useful for in-country travel, as many scenic spots and historical sites are not easily accessible. I haven't heard of any make or model having more or less luck with parts and service. - Jul 2016
