Totally off the top of my head:

For road use 50/day, maybe 200 for a whole week - you insure with dayinsure.com or whatever.

For track us, on road tyres, 250 for a half day plus you buy it if you hit anything and you need to insure to take to/from track - we would have to agree price based on pre-track day condition.

No R tyre option - too hard on the car and too expensive to ignore wear and tear on the car.

Would have to be on a trust basis, so only an option for people that I can trust, not an open offer to anyone reading this.

It would require some kind of preventative maintenance though ... OK for a go at KH but if you're planning on going further afield it would need a service first.

Cheers,
Robin

(that's why I think Mike will do fine, that and his lack of imagination). :roll: :lol:

So long as you remember the buy it if you crash it clause ...

P.S. I'll cover stuff that you would expect to break, but if you break the engine/box/driveshafts/etc., I'll be expecting them repaired ...
