Rental Issue. Advice Needed Please

F30Andy · 04-26-2024, 04:29 AM

I am going on a jolly to the middle east next month for a week.
I had booked a E63s Brabus 800 (with the tiffany interior) which went swimming in the floods in Dubai last week.

In fact half my guys fleet went for a dip in the floods which has left me with the following vehicles to choose from for the dates I am there......

New C63s (Cant take it seriously as its now a 4 pot PHEV

)
McLaren 765LT
Huracan STO
Ferrari 296 GTS
Mercedes AMG GT63s
Aston Martin Vantage
BMW M5 CS

I was thinking the M5 CS for half the week and the 765LT for the other half.

What would you choose?

danb1979 · 04-26-2024, 04:32 AM

M5 and then the AM or 765 for me personally...

rokut · 04-26-2024, 04:37 AM

STO and 765 as long as you don't need the space that the E63 and M5 would have given you...

I've been fortunate enough to drive the Huracan. That engine, the noise....if there's such a place as heaven, I sincerely hope there's a track and a Huracan. Paradise.

Def not the M5 seeing as you have one at home!

For me the Aston and the Ferrari, I think the 296 sounds like a great car...

The 296 sounds like the pick of the bunch to me too. That said, the roads we used were not the most exciting, so a bog standard SUV like our Dodge Durango might be my choice. I guess the 296 might get pride of place with valet parking, where the Dodge was taken away and hidden instantly!

Blend in and go for a Prado/Landcruiser…..and then take it to the dunes.
