My mate hired a Ferrari for a day, my other mate hired out a TVR Cerbera for 3 days.
I want to hire something bloody fast for my 25th next year, anything from a nice Scoob to whatever. Does anyone know of any places to find info out about this, or has anyone done it before?
Need some info if anyone can help me out here.
Cheers,
Ben.

I wouldnt do that, A while back there was some 'interpretation' as to what condition the cars were in when returned.
Ie the companies have 2.5k of your hard earnt, and were making out minor scratches etc required expensive re-sprays 
treat yourself to a palmersport day instead, you get to hammer A VXT around a track flat out...

Pricey! Do a driving day at a track, far cheaper. I drove an F355 round Silverstone! Beast
