I was searching on the net for a car to hire for a petrolhead nirvana weekend away when I came across this site...

http://www.supercarexperiences.com/vroom/supercar/...

Does the car belong to anyone here?

I have so many questions if it does biggrin

I'd say the car pictured is likely just a file photo rather than the actual car for hire. I know of only 2 yellow targas with the carbon roof panels (bear in mind that supposedly theres less than 100 targas in actual existence), 1 of which is owned by a pher, the other I believe to have been written off a while ago.

Yeah, I think the one owned by Donaldosaurus was written off (and if I recall correctly, he was not happy about that)

I guessed the pic was a library pic as surely the hire company dont own a T350, I am guessing they 'borrow' one from someone else then hire it out?

This is all well if all parties are happy with that arrangement but I cant imagine anyone being happy to 'pimp out' their T350 to someone else.

I may be wrong though, and if anyone would like to rent me their T350 for a drive into Europe I would be more than happy biggrin

I think you might get a shock when you see the bill for excess mileage from a Euro jaunt.

Not too worried about the bill and cost of hiring, as i am toying with the idea (read, trying to convince the wife) of spending a lot of money on a T350 and I would like to drive one over an extended period to see if I could live with one.

Would they let you take it out of the country or do they just charge a premium for taking it to Europe?

I'm not sure, I have not contacted the company yet.

Edit..


I am not planning on taking it out of the country now, the trip has been changed to Wales.

Who in their right mind would loan out their Speed Six engined car to strangers who will thrash it from cold - unless they added the cost of a rebuild to the hire price!

Exactly! Thats my point!

I was wondering who would do that and if they are on here. If so then I have many questions smile

It says down the page that the cars may be taken out of the UK for an extra charge.

Seems a fair bet since the picture of their rental Sagaris is of Candy (No2?). I wonder if they actually do have vehicle stock or some complicated relationships with dealers...
