New Castle is a few miles outside of the center of Wilmington, so it’s likely you’ll be doing a fair amount of driving. If you are thinking of using New Castle as a base from which to explore the city and its surroundings, opt for a smaller set of wheels. There’s nothing like a compact vehicle for maneuvering into those tiny downtown parking spots. Alternatively, if you’re moving away from the bright lights and traffic, go for something with a stronger engine and more storage. Not many travelers regret spending that little bit extra on a full-size or an SUV.
