As 2012 is set to hold some of the biggest events in recent History (Olympics, Euro 2012) it’s only right that we evolve and adapt to the ever changing demands of the Motor Industry. As the company has grown some vehicles have truly stood out in their specific categories. Cars like the extravagant.  LP560 Spyder and the menacing yet understated C63 AMG. Both these cars are soon to be rubbing shoulders with their younger siblings in the shape of a new 2012 LP560 Spyder and the sublime new C6S AMG Coupe. These vehicles will be physically with us and ready to make dreams a reality by beginning of summer 2012. Not only are we set to upgrade vehicles, but we also try our hardest to provide totally new vehicles to whet the appetite of our unique customer base. As many of you will know, the long awaited Mclaren MP4 12-C will be gracing our premises with its racing pedigree and lairy orange paint job by May this year so watch this space. All in all, this year is set to be a real eye opener for anyone looking to hire their dream vehicle. Why not call and reserve your car early and avoid disappointment. Roll on the new year. 2012-01-26T09:29:46+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/porsche-997-gts-cab/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/porsche-997-gts-cab/ It is well known in motoring circles that Porsche are very good at what they do. The 911 brand is legend, sporting names like GT3, Turbo and Carrera. However, due to the fact that the 911 is such a complete driver’s tool with so many models in the range, they sometimes get lost within the sports car market. Here at Premiere Velocity we try our hardest to stock vehicles that are totally unique to the hire car market, and once again we have found ourselves a beauty. The 997 GTS cabriolet incorporates the best parts of almost every great 911 on sale today. Based on the current 997 Carrera Chassis, it boasts the full suspension set-up from the near perfect 997 GT3, the latest forged 19 inch alloys from the Turbo S, and that wonderful Metzger Flat 6 engine up in power slightly from the standard 997 Carrera 4 S. Our vehicle is presented in fashionable white, against black wheels, red callipers and a sumptuous alcantara interior which shows its clear link to the GT3. Finding a totally unique vehicle in an enormous range of excellent cars is a hard task, but we have definitely managed it here at Premiere Velocity. This exciting new car is available to book today, so why not be the first behind the wheel and call us on 01920 469 002. Although you may not be able to drop the roof, the 4 wheel drive system certainly lends itself to the impending winter weather. 2011-11-15T07:36:54+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/supercar-fever/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/supercar-fever/ Here at Premiere Velocity, we pride ourselves in our sumptuous range of Supercars available for hire but it is usually common for our special vehicles to take a back seat as the winter draws in. However, when we have vehicles like the Ferrari 458 Italia, Lamborghini LP560 Bicolore, and the Maserati Grand Cabrio available, the supercars are still in high demand.  Not only are we spoilt for choice as the weather draws in, but as the New Year begins we will be adding to our supercar fleet with the stunning new McLaren MP4-12C and the terrifying new Lamborghini Aventador.  Unlike the days of old when a supercar was merely a racing car with road tax, the newest breed of hyper-cars are now far easier to drive, and even (dare I say it) easier to live with. With the new wave of supercars due to hit the streets in 2012, any car lover will be overwhelmed with the exotica in our showroom.    Supercars are always a treat to behold and even better to drive so why not check out our website today to browse through our wonderful collection. It has long been our passion at Premiere Velocity, to make petrol head’s dreams come true, no matter what time of year. 2011-10-18T11:51:34+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/brighten-your-pre-winter-season-blues/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/brighten-your-pre-winter-season-blues/ Why not brighten up this mundane time of year by treating yourself to one of our many new fleet additions here at Premiere Velocity, the UK's biggest prestige hire car company. During our mad summer, we acquired a number of new and exciting additions to our already sumptuous fleet. Popular choices range from our glorious Ferrari 458 Italia and Lamborghini Gallardo LP560 Bicolore to the imperious Range Rover Autobiography and the new face-lifted CLS Mercedes. Whatever you think will put a smile back on your face as the weather closes in we have the car for you here at Premiere Velocity. Please don't hesitate to make the most of those last few days of sunshine and call us on 01920 469 002. 2011-10-18T10:14:21+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/the-new-mercedes-cls-arrives/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/the-new-mercedes-cls-arrives/ A quick note to let you guys know that our new shape Mercedes CLS Sport with AMG kit has arrived in pealescent white and black interior. We have priced the Mercedes CLS at a very good rental rate of £225 + vat per day, giving many of you the opportunity to hire what is a prestige car that looks like a £100k Mercedes. The engine is fantastic and currentlt returning 35 mpg , which is great for a car this size. It has changed it's looks completely from the previous ugly duckling to bring it in line with the current Mercedes line of fine aesthetics. The interior as ususal with Mercedes, is a very pleasent place to be, you can even adjust the ambient lighting to suit your mood. It is as smooh and quite as the S Class, but has the spoty looks of the CL which can both be hired from Premiere Velocity as wel by calling 0844 335 6937. 2011-08-09T15:35:22+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/we-test-drive-the-new-mclaren-mp4-12c/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/we-test-drive-the-new-mclaren-mp4-12c/ Firstly, let us make it quite clear- Premiere Velocity are a prestige & supercar hire/rental company, not motoring journalists, so we see things on maybe a more relevant platform. So when I got the call from the guys at McLaren Birmingham to say they were bringing down the new McLaren MP4, a smile as wide as the London Bridge slowly drew across my face.....finally, a chance to see if all the hype is true and to be one of only a handful of people in the world to drive the 600+ BHP engineered beast that hails from Woking in the United Kingdom. On Wednesday morning whilst sitting in the office I heard a low rumble distinctive of a Supercar, but not a Ferrari or Lamborghini. Rolling up was the McLaren in white with black wheels. It came to a halt and then the masterpiece as the occupant exited the car via the scissor/gull wing doors, which as you can tell, left a bit of an impression on me. I promptly slid into the two tone leather seats which were surprisingly comfortable, and took grip of a steering wheel, and yes, that's all it was- a steering wheel. No buttons, lights, super-duper mode selector, just a round thing you hold and direct the car with. To open the doors, you have to slide in a particular way with compression along the underneath of the area you would expect to find a handle, thus popping those 'bad-boys' up and open. Keyless go means just a press of the ejector seat button starts the burbling engine and prepares you for a journey into the future of high tech Supercars. The ride is what hits you first, it's, how what you would describe as Mercedes like, but a quick change to a stiffer setting and the difference is instant and you are soon aware of any extra pounds you are carrying around the mid-section! Grip is phenomenal in corners, out of corners, in fact any setting it seems to stick to the road like a four wheel drive, which I was informed was down to a new suspension system. The acceleration is mind boggling, especially when the G-force is pushing your chest back through the exhaust, but if you drive it very lightly it feels like something dare I say, 'you could use every day'. I personally love technology and am a bit of a techgeek, so unlike the mainstream journo’s, the fact that it doesn't have the 'soul' of the Ferrari 458 Italia doesn’t mean that much, because this has something different, 'gadgets and technology', which like I said, is what is coming......... For the chance to hire or rent a McLaren MP4, Ferrari 458 Italia or and prestige or supercar, check out our website www.premierevelocity.com or call 0844 335 6937.   2011-08-04T15:10:20+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/prestige-supercar-hire-app-released-by-premiere-velocity/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/prestige-supercar-hire-app-released-by-premiere-velocity/ Great news people. We are soon to release and incredible new iPhone/iPad app for our Supercar and Prestige car hire services. This app will be a market leader as we try to stay at the forefront of the way customers wish to interact with the product they are interested in. After playing around with some of our peers apps we thought that it was an area that could be improved upon, so we have spent the last two months having the most amazing images of all our Prestige and Supercar rental fleet taken by Rob Pepe, an automotive photography specialist, who has as much a passion for the cars as the pictures he takes, and this shines through in all our new images which will be released on our site along with the App in the App store. The download of course is free, so even if you are not looking to hire, it is still a fun app to have, even if it's to view some of the most amazing cars in the world! We are hoping that all these changes will be implemented in a week or so but we will announce to all our customers and via social feed like Twitter, Facebook amd Linkedin. 2011-08-04T14:39:45+00:00 http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/sls-amg-roadster-next-on-the-hire-list/ http://www.premierevelocity.com/blog/detail/sls-amg-roadster-next-on-the-hire-list/ After careful thought, which in all honesty took about a nano second, we have decided to order the upcoming super chic all star Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster. It can currently be seen being driven by Roger Federer on Youtube. At present we are unsure which colour to get so if you have an opinion then feel free to let us know via email enquiries@premierevelocity.com The SLS has been a popualr car since its release with the rental market, so it seems a no brain to make the AMG Roadster available for hire. Nothing has changed in relation to the performence or the amazing noise it makes, but out go the gull wing doors and in come the conventional method. With the top down, this car really has something special about it, which in my opinion takes it back the the 70's cool style that Mercedes made their own. 2011-07-25T07:53:24+00:00
