    Car rental

    I'm driving to my stag do next month, and am considering a temporary upgrade to something a bit more pokey than my estate car. Any recommendations?

    SLK? Boxster S? M5?

    Can anyone recommend a decent rental firm for these kind of cars?

    Hiring a car and driving yourself there sounds a bit permie to me. This is a contractors' board. Get yourself chauffered there.

      If it were me I'd be driving my Bugatti Veyron.

        Pfft. So you'd prefer to sit in the back of an Audi at a very sedate 70, rather than blast up the motorway in a convertable? It's my stag do, not a retirement do!

          Yup.

          I don't think you'll be doing much blasting on the UK motorway network unless you're going at three in the morning.

            On a Sunday.

              Hire a TVR - the excitement will be in whether you can get there at all rather than the exhilarating drive.

                Hire the M5 then everyone will expect you to drive like a knob in the beemer and steer clear.

                  I have a convertible, but, to blast in my Eunos is a very scary experience. Not that there was any blasting at 6:30am on the infamous 62…..
