Hi all,
considering E25 membership in the near future, would be interested in hearing from current/past members about their experience (particularly from those that are 100 miles+ from the nearest E25 HQ)
To be clear, not interested in the "dont do that, buy your own" school of thought, just what its like to actually BE a member.
Thanks

Matt,
Drop JeremyC a line. I'm not sure if he still is, but he certainly was an E25 member and used a few of their cars to go on the PH road trips. He always seemed quite happy with the cars.

Does he pay for his membership or is it "gifted" to him because of the work SCD does? Obviously this would make it a potentially biased view - I may be wrong though
He's mentioned downsides as well as the upsides to me in the past.I don't know whether he pays or not. Nor do I think it matters.

I can't see him giving a bad review if he is given it gratis! 
He may not be but I am sure someone mentioned he had an arrangement with them through SCD before?
That's why I said to pm. I know adam quite well and I'm sure he'll say what he thinks is appropriate.He may not be but I am sure someone mentioned he had an arrangement with them through SCD before?
Is there a reason that you always seem to pick on Adam/SCD? As I said, it doesn't matter if he's paying or not to you.

Of course it doesn't matter to me, I never said it did - good for him.Is there a reason that you always seem to pick on Adam/SCD? As I said, it doesn't matter if he's paying or not to you.
But someone asked for an unbiased view and you have suggested someone I am sure gets the service for free - I hardly think it is "picking on him" by pointing this out!

The point I'm making is that Adam will give a balanced, honest view on pm.But someone asked for an unbiased view and you have suggested someone I am sure gets the service for free - I hardly think it is "picking on him" by pointing this out!
Hi AngryApples,
If you would like to PM me I will gladly put you in touch with a current member of ours that lives 97.2 miles west of our Surrey Clubhouse according to Google maps (OK so not strictly 100+). He's in the Chippenham area, it may be that you could co-operate on your bookings and halve your mileage back and forth if he's in your general area. It's worked well for others in the past.
Thanks,
Dan (on behalf of é25)

I was a member of ecurie25 London for a number of years (3 I think). I loved every minute of it. Great cars and a great service.
For the past year I have been with another car club, Dream Car Hire. They offer a Premium Membership. DCH are brilliant! Great cars delivered to my door (delivery is free). Rates are very good as well. Example: Ferrari 458 is less than £400 per day with 100 miles included.
I suppose it's all down to what you want from the club. I loved the whole "club ethos" at ecurie25. Now I just like top end cars delivered at the best rates. PM me if you have any other questions. You'll not go wrong with either club. DCH link below.

All the best.

I was a member for a year when it was under the leadership of the founders, not the current team; I therefore cannot comment directly on the current membership experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with them - all of the cars were kept in near perfect condition and the club worked hard to accommodate any requests I had and efficiently resolved any issues that arose.Drop JeremyC a line.

I think you need to consider what it is you are looking for from the club which will shape whether it is for you:
- lots of driving in the cars?
- club activities and socials?
- tasters of the latest supercars?
A full review of my year (well, more the cars) is here.
