Fair enough...

My comments were akin to the lend us a tenner sentiment rather than any indication that you were being uncompetitive in any way.

I have heard some horror stories re. hiring vehicles of this type along the likes described i.e. fake damage claims etc. and I am jolly glad to hear that you don't fall within this category.

What attracted me to this thread in the first place was the line of business you are in. A friend would like to arrange a Ferrari drive for her 82 year old father, but given his age and the fact that he is a foreign national, the normal route of a red-letter day event would not be a viable option. I am currently looking for somewhere where we could arrange for him to be taken out for a spin. In addition to a supervision package, would you consider this as a viable option?

Perfect brand new (used 4 months) STi6TypeR will be handed over to a stranger tomorrow. He better look after her or there'll be trouble http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

I just hope the F355 is as good as I think it is, time shall tell. I'm niether rich nor cleaver, but if ya like cars ya like cars.

PS. anyone lend us a fiver, I really want to use Ronnies company after those kinds words from John.

Sorry Ronnie, the F355 rental is out of my budget, the Elise still maybe possible; will let ya know.

Are trackdays covered in the insurance?

I think I know the answer to this already...

I guess the Ring isn't a problem though.

It was worth a try. Not even a one way toll road in Germany? Guess the insurance/running costs would be prohibitive.

You should see the list of things they check/replace on the car before track days over here. Its sponsored by Ferrari but even so its an expensive job.

Flippin - Oh sorry, got in on this thread a bit late.

Just to add my praise to Ronnie and his team for sorting out an F355 spider for a friend of mine at short notice for a Ferrari Owners Club jolly to France this Easter. I would certainly not recommend anyone else, there are too many sharks out there!
