Hi,
A mate of mine is getting married in August this year, and me and another mate want to hire a couple of Esprits for the weekend to rag around. Collect Friday and drop back on Monday.

Does anybody know a specialist hire company with 2 Esprits, fairly similar?

Your help or suggestions would be appreciated.

There are a few companies that will hire them out. Don't know if you'll find 2 Esprit's. You're looking at at least £500 each (don't quote me) for the weekend. Plus a very large deposit.

If you've got the cash I'm sure it can be done. May need to go to two different companies.

Try these:

Bespokes 0207 833 8000
Blue chip 020 7278 7833

Not sure if they've got any Esprits. If not the try the ads in the back of the motoring mags.

Sorry I couldn't help more.

I had a look on Blue Chips website but they didn't have a Lotus Esprit listed on there.... www.bluechipcars.co.uk/

Infact the only one I did find in th UK is this one
www.platinumhire.com/uk/cardetail.cfm?car_id=38

You get to drive a sport 350

(and yes they are in the UK even though the car on thier website has US plates on it)

The "supercar experience" i think has several identical esprits.

They don't advertise their cars for hire, but you could speak to them and ask? Worth a try.

cheers

Thanks for the replies, its food for thought. It should be a GAS, 2 Esprits racing down to Surrey, you'll probably hear about it on the news.....

I rang Platinum Hire, apparently some nugget stuffed the Esprit and they havn't replaced it yet. What a monkey!!!
