¶Buying a car?
Have some budget for this.
Pro:
* easily movable storage space!
* transport of things and people
* people rent it anyway (we've spent ~1-2k on rentals)
* distances are doable but not for all every day (Puerto del Carmen = 40km one way)
Contra:
* "Lanzarote is good for cycling also as it is fairly flat."
