Pimped Rides for Rent

Our first question: Who is Louise Tickle, if she isn't a famous porn star? Apparently, she's famous enough to write about her experience renting a 1965 Austin Healey 3000 on vacation in Cornwall for the Guardian. Good for her.

After mastering the intricacies of a stick shift and no-power anything, she comes away quite impressed with the whole experience, and with the vehicle, which was rented from Corwall Classic Car Hire. We're just amazed that a British car that age is still in one piece; British cars of that era have a reputation for self-destructing faster than a new Julia Louis-Dreyfus sitcom.

If driving a British car has a certain appeal for the next time you swing through Manhattan, check out a Bentley Continental Flying Spur from Exotic Car Rental New York. At $7,450 a week, you can't afford to pass it up. FYI, hiring women in short shorts to gyrate next to it is not included in the weekly rental price.
