Audi Q3 Dynamic-l- Luxury cars on rent

Luxury Car rental
Admit it, irrespective of one being a car enthusiast, who wouldn't love a ride in a luxury car, which is a dream for most people. While buying such cars can be a seriously expensive affair, renting them for a day is affordable today for many. Although for some hours, it allows people to soak in the experience of beign with such a vehicle. Luxury cars or SUVs can easily be rented out, which would be a great way to spend the special day. To put things in perspective, a Mercedes-Benz CLA would cost you about Rs 300 per hour, plus fuel and an added charge if you exceed a pre-described range of kilometres. At the end of the day, a day's experience might not break your bank account but will leave with some memorable moments for sure.

Track day in a sports car
We wouldn't advice taking a rented car to the track, but if your Valentine is into fast driving, he/she would love a day out on the track. Even if you're not racing, it's quite jolly fun driving about on a track. A day on the Buddh International Circuit (Greater Noida, UP) would set you back about Rs 8000-9000, if using your own car. Driving a car such as the Audi R8 or a Mercedes-Benz AMG could be a much more expensive affair with a day's experience costing about Rs 75,000. Of course, fort that money you get the car and instructors to help you go fast and a certificate as well! Company websites are the best place to research and buy such experiences.
