Folks,

My best mate is getting married in July next year. In a moment of drunken stupidity I told him that my present to him as best man would be to get him to the church in a style.

Having sold my Elise and Z4 recently I now have an S-Type Jag which doesn't really fit the bill.

So, I am after hiring a "supercar" or equivelant for an hour on the Saturday morning to get him to the church. I live in Hull and the church is also in Hull.

Any reccomendations for somewhere that would hire me a Ferrari / Lambo / R8 or similar for a couple of hours at a reasonable rate? I'm think of local hire companies rather than a plea to borrow someones P&J (although I will happily accept any offers and offer a few hundred quid in return!!).

Also do these hire companies have age limits? I'm 28 and a qualified Police driver which I hope will make me a favourable prospect.

Si

I was just wondering if you had any luck with your search?

I was thinking of hiring a Ferrari / Lambo for my 30th in Feb next year, so was wondering if anyone PM'd you / you found something appropriate?

If anyone else has any recommendations, I'd be very grateful. Oh, I'm based in Leeds, so anywhere in Yorkshire would be good.

Mark,

I've not really looked into it any further since I posted this. If I find anything interesting I will let you know.

Does anyone know where I could hire something like a new hot hatch for the weekend? I'm thinking a clio 197 or focus ST Astra VXR? I fancy taking our lass somewhere for the weekend and having a bit of a hoon while we're there.

... But I've sold my car and we now use her 1.2 clio (so not much chance of a good hoon)

I'm 25 and the car would be picked up on a friday and returned on a monday.
