Actually, such a kick-down is not allowed, but in this special case you can briefly depress the accelerator pedal to the stop. The Chevrolet Corvette, an aerodynamically cut two-seater convertible with an impressive 659 hp, almost jumps forward, you are pressed into the seat, a gentle pressure unfolds in the stomach area.

On the way on the A 281, test drive with Nuri Uslu, managing director of the sports car rental company Premium Sport Cars, PSC for short. The Chevy bolide needs a mere 3.5 seconds up to 100 km / h, but you drive much faster almost imperceptibly. The top speed is a good 300 kilometers per hour, the fuel consumption a whopping 14 liters. One can certainly argue about whether this kind of lavish luxury is still appropriate, but driving is always fun.

Car rental specializing in sports cars

Nuri Uslu, 30 years old and trained freight forwarder, has always liked fast cars. The young entrepreneur had his first Mercedes AMG when he was in his early twenties and earned a lot of work alongside school and training, as he says. Among other things, in a company with his father that had cars shipped from Bremerhaven to the Arab region.

When Uslu wanted to hand over his car for a new one after two years, he did not get a good offer and kept it for the time being. “During that time, a friend who works at the reception at the Atlantik Hotel kept asking me where she could get such a car for her guests,” says the native of Bremen. This gave rise to the idea for a car rental company that specializes in sleek sports cars and mainly wants to appeal to solvent hotel guests and business customers.

But the luxury sledges can also be rented for weddings and other events, which of course are not cheap. For the Corvette, for example, customers have to pay 449 euros for 24 hours, including 200 kilometers. A weekend with 500 free kilometers costs 1299 euros, plus a 4000 euros deposit.

PSC now has eight luxury cars on offer; in addition to the Corvette, a BMW M550 XDrive and six different Mercedes AMG models as convertibles or sedans. The equipment is elegant, from the steering wheel with soft Alcantara leather to five different massage programs for the driver’s seat. The horsepower ranges from a comparatively modest 258 to a lush 612. You cannot rent bulky SUVs from PSC.

PSC Cars relies on reliability

“At first we had problems finding insurance for our business model,” reports You-Sie Park, friend and close associate of Nuri Uslu, about the difficult start-up conditions for the company. Due to the corona pandemic, the opening of the store was delayed by another month, and it officially started on April 1st.

Business went well from early summer, especially with weddings, currently many cars that have already been booked have been canceled due to the cancellation of events. “It’s threatening for us, but we’re not stopping and preparing for the time after Corona,” says Nuri Uslu, looking confidently into the future. Cooperation is currently being planned with a large real estate agent and a building company very well known in the region, on whose construction sites the PSC banners are to hang. Soon the company also wants to offer vintage cars for rent, five classics from Mercedes, Jaguar and Porsche are already there.

Compared to classic car rental companies, PSC Cars relies on a reliable range of sports cars. “Other rental companies advertise such cars, but when you want to book them, the message often comes that they are not available at the moment and a replacement car is offered in the same category,” explains Managing Director Uslu, who also faces dubious offers warns of private companies on the Internet.

“There are suppliers who are strikingly offering a large number of such sports cars at dumping prices. But these are often only tempting offers with prices that are not realistic for these cars, ”he explains. In addition, these cars are often not insured as rental cars or the customers don’t even have to sign a contract. Nuri Uslu: “Such dubious offers also damage our business. We pay great attention to whoever rents a car from us.”

The minimum age to rent a sports car from PSC is 21 years, and customers must have their driver’s license for at least three years. “A certain amount of driving experience is necessary, especially with cars like ours,” emphasizes Uslu. Each renter must also sign a liability agreement with instructions on how to drive sensibly. It says there that you should, for example, keep the minimum distance, that you do not make any sharp braking maneuvers or let the engine roar in the residential area. And actually no kick-downs on the A 281.
