Routine Maintenance
Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your classic sports car remains in pristine condition, ready for those moments when you want to impress or just enjoy the drive.
Oil Changes
Ensuring you have the right oil for your engine is crucial. For instance, a classic Porsche 911 will have different needs compared to a Ferrari F40 or an Aston Martin DB5.
Tyre Care
Regularly check and maintain the tyre pressure and tread of your Lamborghini Huracán or McLaren 720S to ensure safety and optimal performance.
Battery Maintenance
Classic sports cars, such as the Jaguar E-Type, require diligent battery care, especially if they aren't driven regularly.
Storage Solutions
The way you store your rented classic sports car, be it a sleek Ferrari or a robust G Wagon, can significantly impact its longevity and performance.
Climate Control
Proper climate-controlled storage is essential to protect your vehicle from the unpredictable UK weather.
Coverage Protection
Using a high-quality car cover can protect your Maserati or Lotus from dust and minor dings while stored.
