Sports Car Hire – Drive Your Dream Car

It’s not all that difficult to get a sports car hire.  Most of us have a dream car that we have always wanted to drive.  Generally, the fantasy is to get behind the wheel of some exotic sports car like a Porsche, Ferrari, or even as Aston Martin.  That does not have to be a dream any longer.  The car rental industry has gone through changes through the years and one of these changes has been that the opportunity to rent performance cars has increased.  Sure, you have always been able to rent sports cars since the mid-sixties, but they were often hard to find and too pricey to be realistic.Well, while they are still pretty pricey, the availability of sports car hire has risen dramatically.  If you have a dream car that you have always wanted to drive, chances are now good that you’ll be able to rent it, and, if you only want to play with it for a day or two, it probably won’t cost you an arm and a leg.  The cost, however, will depend on the car.You can rent a Porsche 911 Turbo for around $499 USD, a day.  An Aston Martin Vantage will run you about $745 USD, daily, while a Lamborghini Murcielago might take that arm or leg off at $1450 USD per day.There are many reasons an individual might choose a sports car hire instead of a more conventional, boring sedan from a car rental counter.  Perhaps the person is traveling to a particular city on business and just wants to liven up a day or two in that city.  Maybe you are considering the exact same sports car and you want an extended test drive.  Then, again, maybe you are a sports car buff and you just want to rent the thing for fun.The option of a sports car hire allows someone who might otherwise never get the chance, to experience their dream car first hand.  In exchange for this opportunity, you will pay higher rates and have to qualify over some stringent restrictions.  First, a sports car hire is going to cost much more than your average rent a car.  Secondly, you will probably have to buy more insurance from the rental agent, as your auto insurance probably will not follow you into a Bentley.  Then, you will probably have to meet more stringent age requirements.  There will definitely be higher mileage charges, and these cars are not renowned for low MPG.  You will want to check travel restrictions, as well.  Sometimes, high-end automobile renters will restrict distances and destinations when they rent out a sports car.Still, when it comes to driving your dream car, jumping through a few more hoops than usual isn’t really that much of an inconvenience.Just imagine watching a television show or a movie with a group of friends and a fast moving, aerodynamic Lotus comes racing on the screen, and you can say, “I drove one of those.”Oh yeah, when enjoying a sports car hire, get plenty of pictures, too.

An Amazing New Sports Car

Here is a truly amazing new sports car – the KTM X-Bow. It is amazing in the way it looks, the way it is made and in its performance. So what is so special about the way it looks? Well, it has open wheels, with cycle type fenders, but you can hardly see them. At the front there is a big cowl which hides the wheels, but beneath that is a narrow chisel nose that is the front of the body, the engine being behind the cockpit.

On top of the engine is a curved cowl that acts as a cover, and provides some downforce at speed. Then, twin radiators are mounted each side of the engine, just behind the cockpit, where they partly conceal the engine and rear wheels. If you look from the back, you can see the rear suspension and a big muffler across the back with the exhaust coming straight out. This mufflers acts as a safety crash member, taking the impact in a crash.
