Is anyone aware of any companies hiring out reasonable cars to people my age, 21, in London?
I know Pearl Rentals used to, until the Lambo's were written off putting them out of business. I'm not looking for anything that crazy, just a 325i Cabrio, or similar. Something nice to use for a trip away, but NOT a supercar(I"m used to 60bhp)

Hertz do a student rental option (if you're a sutdent),I cant imagine there will be many great cars to choose from though.

This is where I'm going to be hiring a van.

Car options are dull though, Corsa/Focus. Not quite what the OP is after biglaugh

europcar hire to over 21's, but there is a daily surcharge to under 25, and the range of cars is limited.

i don't think you will find anywhere that will rent you a 325 Etc unless you provide your own insurance.

I reckon Europcar will only give up to CXMN - 1.6/1.4T hatchbacks. That's what I get from work most often and whilst there's a few decent enough cars in there it's still going to be an Astra or a Golf hehe

FFS, had a licence over a year, but got 3 points just after passing and thats making this more difficult. Guess I'll just have to put up with 60bhp for a while.

Some hire firms will insist you've had your licence over 2 years too...

Save up the pennies and buy yourself a BMW, they can be had for not much money and are cheap to insure if you're 21! biggrin

So would you rent a 325 to someone with such a distinguished driving record?

The only places I've seen want a certain number of driving years experience and a clean license too so I don't think you'll be in luck...who's the lady you're looking to show off to? winkhehe
