If you've got £15k a day to spare...

I cropped the contact details to avoid spamming the forum.

If anyone's feeling flush though, PM me...

(I'll just require a promise of a quick spin to oblige) :D

Isn't that the one that runs out of fuel doing the standing quarter mile?

Wouldn't mind an R8 for the weekend. Nice motor.

You'd be too scared to scratch it.. I think I'll stick with the baja's.. a lot more fun

How come the Bug is nearly 30 times more expensive than the DBS :confused:
I mean if you hired the Bug for Chrimbo to new year it would cost £105,000. You could get a pretty nice motor for that.
Also what`s the point, it`s not like your going to be able to go 250mph in it and personally i think the DBS is a much nicer piece of kit :)

I too would opt for the R8 over the Veyron... I'd be scared of having it parked in my street for fear of scratches/dings etc...let alone the cost of fuel.

As Matty says - you could almost PURCHASE an R8 for the cost of Veyron hire for a week...The hire of the RRS looks a bit TOO cheap though... £100/day. It costs about £50/day here just to hire a Fiesta or similar!

What you got to bare in mind is this kinda thing is aimed at those with enough money to wipe their backsides with gold leafed £50 notes.

I bet there are a few upper class twits willing to pay this

At fifteen thousand pounds a day, the owner just has to hire it every day out for ten weeks and he has made his money back.

Because the Bug is a hand built car and are not readily available where as the DBS is a factory producction car

Yeah i watched that, was pretty amazing really, although scary that the body is only held together by 12 titanium bolts, at 250mph i'd be worried it would fall apart

It doesn't leave much (v)room ;) for error.

I would imagine that the majority of the £15K would be to cover the insurance tbh.
