8yr old dreams to have a passenger experience in a super/hyper car!!

wandsworthmummy12 · Postby **wandsworthmummy12** » Fri Nov 10, 2017 10:27 pm

Long shot but worth a try..

Does anyone own or know someone who owns a super/hyper car? Preferably a BMW I8, Audi R8, GTR, Koenigsegg, Bugatti, McLaren, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Bentley, Rolls Royce or a new shaped Jaguar.. or any other supercar?? My son is absolutely obsessed with cars and his 8th birthday is approaching and it would make all of his birthday dreams come true to be able to have a short passenger ride in one of these cars. We would be happy to commute and I would be happy to pay the owner for their time. Unfortunately all the passenger ride deals that you can buy online are for 12yrs +. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

We have also looked into renting one but unfortunately they all seem to be for a minimum of 2days and near the £2k mark.

Not quite as flash as the cars you’ve listed but I saw this in the Week Juinor this week.

But if those cars are to his taste then possibly 10mph isn’t going to hit the spot!

Hi wandsworthmummy12

I have just done a search and come up with this website:
https://www.intotheblue.co.uk/driving-e ... r-ferrari/

Some of these are from 10 years old. Have found myself on a live-chat with someone called Charley

and she is looking for options for an 8 year old at the moment....

oh ok... she has come back with this... for 8 year olds! Does it help any?

Hi

This is worth a look also, perhaps not for the Birthday as it’s not until July, but as a great day out next Summer for a car nut.

It’s a great event in aid of the Children’s Trust. I went with our 8 year old this Summer and he is still I awe of the Ferrari he got driven in.
