I had an idea which looks gone

my parents 25th anniversary is in august and my father has always wanted to drive a aston martin db9. so i thought about hiring one for 1/2 days with cash for a nice meal somewhere.

just checked online for 2mins and seen £800/day!! not this much surely. i cant afford it but havnt given up on the idea if anyone knows a cheap place by which i mean a few £000 not £0000


thankyou

pretty sure it was £70 per hour not day
plus they had to pay a £5k deposit just in case!

Plenty of options on Google - use luxury car hire

This outfit in London charges £595 per day. The V8 Vantage is £495

Avis do it - but they want £1,300 per day!!!

As well as a decent deposit, they have mileage restrictions too

But the open day looks like fun and far better value for money

Has your mum always wanted to be a passenger in an Aston Martin DB9?

You would be fulfilling your dad's dream and your mum gets a meal.

If it's not your mum's dream too then can I suggest that this is a bit biased towards dad.

Sorry, but having passed a milestone anniversary and with another one close, I'm sure my hubby would want our kids to treat us to something we would both enjoy equally.

Maybe save the Aston Martin treat for dad's 50th (or other landmark birthday) and for their anniversary treat them to a nice weekend away or something you know they will both enjoy.

I do however applaud you for the thought and your generosity, lucky mum and dad!

Didn't you watch the Apprentice this week?

Their task was to sell slots for renting expensive cars.
