Renting a Lambo in Italy?

better ship yours here, trust me. ciao

 

Opposite the factory is the Bull Bar.

They do rent Lamborghini's !

If you talk to them I would appreciate if you mention my name

Look in the 50th anniversary thread and you might want to change your dates a little....

 

Kirk,
Nice to see you're going back. I remember your 25th trip around the time of the Urraco.

Over in the 50th thread I asked the same question about shipping my car.
In a nut shell, 2500-3000 by boat BUT about 5 or 6 weeks each way. Too long for me to not have control of my car. Then about 10k+ by air and much quicker. (not important enough to spend that kind of money)
I did not ask if the 3-4k is each way, I assume yes. Same for air.
Fortunatley, being in the state where they leave from would save you more money than if you were mid west/west coast. Gotta get to the port!

 

Just a personal opinion but I wouldn't ship my cars over there. Think of all the crap that could happen (on the way over, coming back and while you're there) and think about getting it resolved in a foreign country. OMG

 

You can ask mr. Fabio Lamborghini, Ferruccio's nephew. He can rent Lambo cars at interesting price (or even a Ferrari 430 cabrio), but if you want the car for two weeks i think it's more expensive than to ship your one, but i do not know the rent fares for long time so better ask him: mail to [email protected]

shipping and coming back by sea is more or less 8 k USD (it depends on how much you are far from the port), you can ask to mr. Daniele Meazzi, Trasmec S.p.A., they have offices here in Modena and in Milano too, they have USA corrispondant in Miami, Fl. They do not damage anything, car is sealed in a container, they shipped mine with no problems. Mail to [email protected]


PM me if you want some help

ciao

 

Contact [email protected] if you haven't done so yet. He owns a company that organises driving holidays in Italy, Switzerland and the Cote D'Azur. He can get discounts for exotic car rentals.

I am in no way affiliated with gt-lux.com. I got to know Greg from one of the many car forums and I can vouch that he is a great and honest person who is also a Lambo owner and will bend over backwards to help people.

P.S: Do mention me if you contact him.

Regards

 

This happens every time there is some type of big anniversary event in Europe. Owners in the US think it would be a great to have their cars shipped over to Europe for the event (and it would be).

Then unfortunately reality rears its ugly head, and it usually ends up the same. First it is the cost of shipping, by air or by water? If you can somehow justify to yourself that the shipping cost is worth it, the insurance cost of driving your Lamborghini/Ferrari/Maserati or whatever for a two period in Europe is what usually ends the thoughts of the average owner doing it.

 

Just to say I rented from Fabio Lamborghini is so cool inside itself!
And, very comforting to know my car would be home, all snug as bug in rug...while I'm galavanting

 

I've shipped my Ferrari from Malaysia to Genova, Italy for Mille Miglia last year. You need a very good agent there who can handle your car including driving it out of the port otherwise you'll need to do it yourself! Best if you speak Italian or if they do good English. Then there's the return trip, you need to hand the car back to the agent/garage/port on weekdays & office hours only or you'll miss your flight!

For air freight, all fluids must be emptied. Car must be dry to be loaded so it has to be towed to a workshop to be refilled again once it touches down 1-3 days after leaving home.

Make sure you get a "Carnet du Passage" as well for customs clearance so that you can drive around Europe & insurance is quite cheap if you get 3rd party. Few hundred Euros that's all for a month.

If you can find a local place to rent, it'll make your life much easier.

 

Jeffs friend with the red car FedExed his 400S over from France. I think it was bought from the original owner. They scratched it (maybe even a small dent). In the end they had to pay to repaint the whole car!

 

Hello everyone,

I would advise to look at kingrent.com (is a luxury car hire agency supplying cars mainly in Italy, Switzerland, France and Germany) they own most of the cars they rent, and from my experience they provide an excellent service: I rented a Ferrari California in Tuscany and not only the car was perfect, I was also advised for the good places to visit in the area from the driver that delivered the car in our hotel!

 

Italy, you are saying... Great choice!!
I can recommend you: Luxury Car Rental - Prestige Car Hire Europe |
Especially check the Lamborghini GALLARDO LP 560 SPYDER

 

for sports car like ferrari, lambo you can use https://lurento.com some rates are great and some very expensive but it's marketplace, so you get all available cars in one place with the details and photos
