GUY Salmon, the prestige rental firm which is a sister company of National Car Rental, has introduced six new models to its fleet.

The MGTF, Audi TT, Saab 9-3 convertible, Mini Cooper S, Porsche Boxster and Renault Espace Initiale have been added in response to an increased demand from businesses for prestige cars, not only for executive car rental, but as incentives for sales staff and rewards for customer loyalty.

The new vehicles add to the existing range of high performance vehicles from Guy Salmon which include the Jaguar XJ8, S-type and X-type, Mercedes-Benz CLK, E-class and S-class and the BMW 3-series and 5-series.

Neil McCrossan, vice- president sales and marketing for National Car Rental, said: 'We saw significant growth in demand during 2002 as businesses realised the value of using a prestige vehicle as a reward for loyalty or achieving sales targets.
