Anyone in the car hire business? - need car for 3 months!

[hman]

I will have a requirement for a hire car in the UK for 3 months from January 2011 to End of March.

PLease let me know by PM or on here if you can help.

bump. I am in the same position and would be interested to know the cost.

What sort of car are you after? We offer very good prices on longer hires eg 3 months on the top end cars, aston, bentley , ferrair, lambo, porsche, range and not as much as you would expect www.pbsupercars.com

[hman]

Looking for more Ford, VW, Vauxhall etc.

Dont think my Key accounts would be impressed if I rocked up in a Lambo then told them they werent getting a discount on our products!!

[PBSC]

ah!! see your point. Wjhat about a Q7, Cayenne or Range Rover?

[hman]

Looking round the 350 p.m. mark so prob not in budget...

[PBSC]

£350 per month will not get much on hire terms evn on very basic cars! Ours start at £2k per month for a Porsche Cayenne Turbo Cab or Range Rover Sport S/C etc....

[Renn Sport]

OP: Treat yourself to a RR Sport or a Cayenne Turbo S.

You deserve it surely?

Hehe you got to give it to PBSC, doing a good job of trying.

Thrifty are doing a Focus 1.6 disel/petrol for £330ish +vat for 28 days hire, you have to pay insurance on top and E-sure seem to be the way forward with that, all up I'm looking 480ish per month...


Can anyone do a better deal than that?????

Try speaking to Hertz - they do surprisingly competitive long term hires.

Which location are you looking to pickup and return? If its in the South east of England try : www.car-hire-uk.com - I would recommend a Picasso as 99% of the fleet are Diesel.

see thread on rentmeanycar.com

For three months it'd almost be worth the hassle of buying something cheap (1k MX5?) and flogging it for little or no loss.

car needs to be sub 5 years old, am buying myself some time and letting the market stabilise after xmas for selling and buying.

car needs to have 4 seats+ as well

[rufusgti]

Why does it need to be sub 5 years old???

Just buy a cheap car.

your going to chuck 1000 quid down the pan.

[hman]

the company are paying me about the same as what I am going to "chuck down the pan".
