When most of us hire a car we look for something economical and cheap to blat around at the end of a train journey or on holiday. As long as it looks alright, goes alright and has AirCon, it’ll do. But what do you do if it’s a special occasion or you just want a treat?
There are a number of ‘supercar for hire’ businesses dotted around the UK, but they’re not always exactly accessible. Often they’re a one location operation, which is just fine if they’re on your doorstep, or the car you want is booked up for every weekend you need it. But Hertz Super cars might be the answer.
Hertz in the UK has teamed up with Première Velocity to offer a range of proper high-end supercars for your delight and delectation. Not the really bonkers stuff, admittedly (no Bugattis or Paganis or Koenigseggs), but some properly decent supercars nevertheless.
Cars on offer so far include:
- Aston Martin DB9
- Aston Martin Rapide
- Audi R8
- Ferrari 458 Italia
- Ferrari California
- Lamborghini LP560-4
- McLaren MP4-12C
- Mercedes SLS AMG & Roadster
There’s also a range of mere luxury stuff, including Range Rovers, Rolls Royce Phantoms and Bentleys. Prices are not exactly peanuts, but they’re doable. The Mercedes SLS Roadster is about £1.000 for a day collect and return in central London, and the MP4-12C a bit over £1,200. The California will cost you around £900 and the Rapide about the same.
So if she who must be obeyed is pestering to know what you want for Christmas…

Lovely to look at and nice to drive in a perfect environment, but £1,200 per day!!! Not exactly pocket money for a day’s fun, is it?
Much, much better to go to an enthusiast’s club where they genuinely want to get as many ‘normal’ people behind the wheel of some great cars, not just the fabulously rich!! How about a week in an Aston V8 Vantage, a week in a 911 C4S and a week in an Audi R8 ALL for only £2,850? Plus a market leading 1,000 miles in each. Plus international trips allowed. If only someone looked after the REAL enthusiast rather than just the well heeled and offered such a package!! They do……WE do! http://www.simplesupercars.com Drive Your Dreams…….

More a promo than a comment!
But on the basis it’s only fair to let the independents compete with the multi nationals, it’s justified.
