Holders Prestige and Performance Car Hire in Reading have already rented the car twice this year. The retail cost of the vehicle is eight hundred and ten thousand pounds. It can go from 0 to 60 in three seconds with a top speed of 254 mile per hour. A one hundred thousand pound deposit is required when renting the car.

If you have a 3 day weekend coming you can hire the car for a mere forty five thousand or why not make a week of it and get the car for a snip at seventy thousand.

Only twenty models of this car were made. It has an 8 litre engine which requires ten radiators so it remains cool. A Spokesman Eesa Mander stated that the Bugatti Veyron was the best car in the world and worthy of its price tag. It offers the best performance and speed of any car in the world.

A popular trip for those who hire the car is to travel in style from the UK across Europe to Monaco.

The owner of the car allows it to be rented when it is not in use.

Car sales are down a massive sixty four percent on this time last year however rental car numbers have risen by twelve percent. In the first five days of the New Year, 9390 new vehicles were registered in comparison to 26029 last year.

Merlin Motor Group has reported a twenty percent rise on what they initially forecast for June to December last year. In January this year, Merlin has seen a twelve percent rise.  Companies are now entering into short term rental agreements rather than buying new cars.

Damien Keogh of Merlin believes companies are being careful with finances at the moment. He said many are looking to enter into short term agreements as they wait to see how things will work out in the coming year.
 
Cars can be hired for a monthly fee which is quite an attractive option for many companies at present who do not want to get tied to long contracts.

Research at the University of Nevada – Reno has shown that it is possible to get oil from old coffee grounds. The biofuel could be a cheap alternative and there is potential to produce many million of gallons per year.

Mano Misra spoke of coming across the idea by accident. Having left a cup of coffee out over night he noticed an oil build up around the edges of the cup. Misra then did some tests on coffee grounds and found it to contain between ten and fifteen percent oil. He was then able to covert the oil to biodiesel. Starbucks then provided lots of leftover coffee grounds to be used for further research.

The procedure is not particularly demanding energy wise so the biodiesel could be made for roughly one dollar per gallon. Believe it or not the fuel actually smells like coffee! So perhaps in a few years time you could be driving around in a Cork Airport car hire smelling of coffee.

The coffee grounds produce a more stable fuel than previous efforts involving corn and soy. It is also green friendly with much lower carbon dioxide emissions.

Lau said he did not intend to sell the car when he first hired it however financial difficulties meant he ended up selling the car at a car wash for £2,600. The car was a Mitsubishi Colt which was actually worth about £7,000.

Lau was charged in court with one count of theft. The forty nine year old man was also found to be holding cannabis and cocaine which he explained in court was to help improve intimate relations with his wife.

The vehicle was hired initially for a short time before Lau extended the deal.

Hmmmm…How exactly did he think this plan might work???
