Well, after some research, I've found the following four cars for roughly
the same price rental:
Ford Escort (most expensive)
Volkswagon Golf
Opal Kadett
Puegot 309 (least expensive)
Does anyone feel there is a standout or are they relatively the same? I
will be putting a fairly high number of highway/autobahn kilometers on
the car.
Thanks,
Jay

You really need to know what model's they are to make a descision.
VW Golf's are fine solid cars, but anything less than a GTi feels
underpowered.
The Kadette would be my second choice to the Golf.
I've never driven a Peugeot 309 so can't comment. It's the most
boring looking car in the set, though I'd suspect it would be the
most enjoyable to drive.
They'd have to pay me to take the Escort.
Ian.

Thank you sir, I'll go with the Golf because the company (National)
also has kadetts in the same class. If they are out of Golfs then
I'll get the Kadett.
FYI: 10 day rental, with 25% tax included, unlimited distance,
pick-up/drop-off in Brussels; best rate is about 30 dollars a day.
(or about 1,075 belgian francs)
This assumes 2 day advance reservation, FROM the U.S.
