R35 Wedding Hire *sydney*. Will Pay $$$

[mz.malteaser]

Hi

My fiance and I are getting married in Nov 2011. I want to suprise him with an R35 to drive to the wedding as he is a massive Skyline fan.

It would be great if he could drive it personally to the wedding. I am happy for the owner to be in the car with him (for piece of mind). Happy to supply license details, bonds, pay for petrol etc you name it.

He will be 32 once the wedding comes around, has had his license for over 10 years, currently owns an R32 GTR (which will also be in the wedding). Wedding is in Dundas Valley.

Will need it for 3-4 hours including photo time etc.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

Lauren =)

Lauren have you tried looking into hiring one from a prestige rent-a-car place?

Im not in Syd, so i dont know any by name, but im sure there'd be some company out there with one for hire

Hi Domino

I actually have spoken to these people and ended the conversation extremely disappointed.

As the wedding only goes for 1 day (as most weddings do) we only need the car for 1 day - right? Well not that their website mentions anything but they came at me with a 2 day minimum hire for the weekend and are trying to charge me $2000. Considering we're not going to be in the country the next day I am just not going to pay it. I am more than happy to pay $1000 for one day - I even told them I'd pay a little extra if they just let me have it for one day but no.

This is the only other place I could think of.

I have contacted http://www.hireasportscarinsydney.com.au/ but they haven't got back to me yet. Fingers crossed. Will let everyone know what the outcome is when I know (incase someone else is looking).

Thanks anyways though! =)

Hi

My fiance and I are getting married in Nov 2011.

Even if you found someone tomorrow that says yes, whos to say the car will exist in 14 months or the owner will still be alive to carry out the service?

I'd look into it no more than 3 months before the wedding, also by then there should be a bigger pool to choose from, more modified ones around the place, maybe the rental places will reduce it to a 1 day hire when the cars become more common.

Congrats on the future wedding.

Because she is a women (and its about a wedding) and she is being smart about by planning ahead of time? (in contrast to some men who do it last minute).

I think its definately a good idea to scope it out ahead of time. Maybe just line up a backup hire car?

[mz.malteaser]

If I looked into it 3 months before the wedding I'd have a heart attack in the process thinking I've left it so late and not going to find anything - its a chick thing.

I'd rather be prepared and if it falls through then I have enough time to find another one or something else.

The rental place told me to call a few months before the wedding and 'if its available' they MIGHT give it to me for one day but I am just taking that risk. As you can imagine the whole wedding car thing is a big thing for my fiance so i'd like to lock something in ASAP.

True true, now I can see it from a females perspective

Too true! I did very little with our wedding. All I had to do was polish the mx5 rofl.

im sure the future hubby would love to have the GTR rental for 2 days (day before wedding day and wedding day)

Hi,

It's probably too late but I have a Super Silver R35 and a mate has a Red R35. Did my wedding in Aug with the both and they looked awesome so have decided to start doing more weddings (have done a couple since)We do weddings but groom driving isn't an option. Depending on where in Syd it will be less than what you are wanting to pay (each).

Your other option is to hire one for the weekend but I think it is pretty exy!

Anyhow's all the best.

Regards,

Andy
