Mustangs in Nevada

Just when I thought I had everything covered, the site that I'm supposed to be hiring a Mustang convertible (grp K)from, informs me that when their booking goes through it comes up as Avis and they cannot guarantee the Mustang. Budget car hire only do the Mustangs so that was why I thought it would be vitually guaranteed. (I know most sites do not gurantee anything).

I tried booking direct through Budget, but cannot get a firm price which includes all the insurance etc thats needed. (The site says pay at the airport) - I do not want to arrive and have a massive bill to pay.


The site I was booking through were charging £201 including all ins. and a full tank of petrol + 2 drivers. I usually use them when I book for Florida and they are normally really reliable.

After all my waffling, has anyone got a site that will book Budget.com car hire and let me have the Mustang???

Hertz will let you select a Shelby Mustang [y][y] for for about 400 pounds a week..lot of car.

Which hotel did you pick and how long do you need the car for?

I'd be interested too, love those cars!

Hi

I booked the Hilton Grand Vacation 2650 LVBlvd 1 bedroom suite and The Signiture@MGM. When I try to go direct with the car rental companies, they don't give the all inclusive price.

I'm on a new collection of Minstrels for you, as my 'children' found them and decided they like them as well.

ooooopppps car is needed for 7 days, 30/8-6/9 or 8/30-9/6 for you Dave

Nice hotel! Booze store is a long block away though.

Get the Shelby Mustang and it is a long FUN block away.

dream car rentals want over double what the other car hire companies charge. $888 for the week. Shelby from Hertz want £467.00 =$934

Does anyone know what insurances UK drivers have to have, is it just the CDW, SLI, ????

Crap...well I can talk to my buddy at my local Avis, the problem comes in that it is 20 mins from the strip, I can get you up there..the problem is getting you back..as I will be 3k miles away.

Best bet in my books is book on avis (dont forget to enter your FC number) and badger the people at LAS to give you a mustang.

Get the Shelby!!!!!! We hired one once, and Mrs. Stoneman still gets wet thinking about it (sorry, to much information)[y]

Trust me when I say "You do NOT want to know" [:$]

[:I][:w]For ladies who have trouble with incontinence[:#](pads)[:I][:0]

By the way, car is now sorted, spoke to admin manager at Budget, and he has booked the Mustang, including all insurances etc for £[y]203!!!! for the week

Where will you be Dave when you are 3K away?
Thanks for your help as always.[oo]

Oh ok...clear now [:I]

I will be lounging on sunset beach at SXM for a day,watching planes land, drinking cold beer, relaxing the hell out of myself.

Then cruising the seas the rest of the week.

Let me know when and where to drop off the minstrels ......cos I might eat them otherwise

Good luck with the Mustang rental, you might be interested to hear that then Shelby factory is in the vicinity.

The advice given here about Mustang rental is spot on, the GT-H is a fine car, although I think they have now started to switch to convertibles. Be wary of the mileage, as they only give you 75 free miles a day. The regular rental Mustangs are V6's with 200 BHP, for a real Mustang adventure, you should try and drive a V8.

Have fun, there are plenty of Mustangs in the UK if you get the bug.

Is there anywhere in the UK where you can hire Mustangs by the day/weekend??

Thinking of getting on but want to try one first...
