Elite Performance Cars?

[VML]

Hi,

has anybody had any dealings with this company, they are based on George Street, London. I have no suspicion of any negative press, just exercising due diligence.

Thanks

If you were to look at it, you may belive is was set up by a nobody trying to be a somebody, but they have the showroom, they have the cars, just looking for someone that has had direct dealings with them.

the showroom only fits 2 cars, currently there are 2 f430s in there. They are also a rental company (website refers to it) so i would ask if the car you are looking at is ex rental

[Callughan]

They used to do a lot or rentals, not sure what they up to now days.

The 911 GT3 looks rather like a Turbo to me

Yes, I used to walk past there 6 years ago to work - always had a couple of interesting cars for rent in the showroom.

Website was registered in April 08 and gets no traffic worth talking about. There are hundreds of rental and sales sites like this out there. By "this" I mean sites that look like they have fallen off the back of a lorry.

Yes, right opposite a banking client of mine in those days, hence the reason I know the place...small showroom, carpark behind, R Lukins was the proprietor, I believe

Its been Elite for good while but was all refurbed a year or so ago (I live about 200 yds away) and has had some interesting motors in - Veyron, Enzo etc - I think PHer Tbops knows them/is something to do with them.

Okay, anyone claiming to be in the luxury/high performance car rental business needs to persuade me that they have at least a rudimentary grasp of grammar before I hand over any cash.

Also, isn't a firm that both hires and sells supercars a little odd?

Hire them out while you wait for them to be sold....



I have no idea what they do or how they run their business, this is just idle speculation.
