Rental ideas ex-UK

We're planning to do a round-Europe trip with a few friends this summer. We haven't 100% decided on the plane type, but have a few ideas. I would be glad to hear your suggestions.

Mission would be a 2400-2600nm trip over 2 weeks with 4 people, flown in VFR. The actual route will obviously depend on the weather etc, but we will have to be in Ibiza for a week.

We're hoping not spend more than £300 per hour for flying, the plane can be single or multi-engine.
The amount of mileage we're going to do means I would like atleast 140-150kts, so a C182 is a bit too slow. And since there's 4 of us, an Arrow would be too small.

I'd appreciate any input and suggestions for plane types, and if anyone would have any leads on planes available, that would be brilliant.
