Young Driver FAQs

Common questions about luxury car hire for drivers under 25.

Can I hire a supercar if I am under 25?

Self-drive supercar hire requires a minimum age of 25 for most vehicles, with some requiring 30. However, we offer chauffeur-driven experiences for any age, allowing you to experience supercars like Lamborghinis and Ferraris as a passenger. Some selected vehicles are available for self-drive from age 21-24 with enhanced insurance.

Why is there a minimum age for supercar hire?

Insurance companies set minimum ages based on accident statistics. Drivers under 25 statistically have higher incident rates with high-performance vehicles. The 25+ requirement protects you financially (deposits could be at risk) and ensures responsible enjoyment of these powerful machines.

What vehicles can I drive at 21?

At 21, selected vehicles including BMW M4, Mercedes-AMG C63, and some Porsche models may be available with enhanced insurance (additional £100-200 per day). Full supercar access requires age 25+. Chauffeur service is available for all vehicles at any age.

Is there a young driver surcharge?

For eligible 21-24 year old drivers, an enhanced insurance supplement of £100-200 per day applies depending on vehicle category. This covers the increased insurance premium. Drivers 25+ pay standard rates with no surcharge.

What documents do young drivers need?

All drivers need: Full UK driving licence held for minimum 3 years (or EU equivalent), proof of address, and passport or photo ID. Young drivers (21-24) may require additional documentation including no claims history and may need to provide check codes for DVLA record access.

Can I hire for prom if I am 17-18?

Absolutely! Our prom packages are chauffeur-driven, so there's no minimum age for passengers. Students of any age can arrive at prom in a Lamborghini or Ferrari with a professional chauffeur. Parental consent required for under-18s.

Do you offer driving experiences for under 25s?

Yes! Track day experiences are available for drivers aged 21+ at approved circuits. These controlled environments allow younger enthusiasts to experience supercar driving under professional supervision, separate from our road hire service.

What happens when I turn 25?

From your 25th birthday, you qualify for our full self-drive supercar fleet at standard rates. Book in advance and provide your date of birth – we can schedule your first drive for your birthday as a milestone celebration.
