With all of the heavy snow that the UK has experienced over the last few days it means that flights to and from Gatwick have been grounded. If there is a risk that your flight in to Gatwick might be delayed then it is likely that once you do eventually land, you will be keen to make a quick get away from the airport.
You could wait around for public transport, but there are many rail disruptions due to the weather conditions and so you will be better off driving to your destination. However, you may find that a lot of other people have the same idea and so there may not be many hire cars left. Book the car beforehand and then you will guarantee that you can leave the airport as quickly as possible on arrival.
Imagine how nice it will be to be able to get off the plane, collect you luggage and get straight into a car to reach your hotel room quickly. Think about the hassle that would be involved if you had to wait for a train or bus and then have a long, slow journey and then maybe a taxi at the other end which will delay your journey even longer.
So consider booking a car in advance of your flight in order to guarantee you a fast and comfortable journey to your final destination and you could be unpacking at your hotel room before other people form your flight have even got off the train.
