Sporty Car Hire in NI for a birthday treat - any help?!

Hello - I am considering hiring a car for oh's BIG birthday later this year - wanted something a bit sporty, but it looks as if this might cost £400 plus for a couple of days :eek: Just wondered if anyone has any experience of this or could recommend anyone? Might have to abandon the whole idea as so far it isnt terrible moneysaving!!! :o
Im knitty, Im nutty, but I dont know anyone called Nora. :p

  • Hi
    not really sure Ill be much help!I had the same idea a couple of years ago for OH birthday-I checked all the usual car hire places but couldnt find anything suitable,I think in Northern ireland we are really restricted in what choice there is.You could get any make of car on the mainland for hire!
    Some of the car hire places had BMWs,Audis etc if thats what you are looking for,Sorry I cant be much more help-good luck in the search :)

    I would be interested in the same idea like to get hire of a Evo or something like that probably easier just to buy one.:rotfl:

    Have you any phone nos for places over here?
  • Your could try Star Car Hire, they have some unusual cars in Northern Ireland.

    When my Porsche went in for repair the insurer had to source a car from the mainland such was teh availability of prestige vehicles in NI. Could make a nice little trip.... off for the weekend and when you get off the boat, hop into four or five hundred horses and have a ball!
    Always overestimating...

    What's wrong with AVIS
  • Thanks for all the suggestions. Was really looking for a porsche I think...best I can get so far is over £400 though, so think we might have to stick with the renault scenic and just pretend, LOL!
