  • Mileage Limits: Be aware of daily limits to avoid extra charges.

Pre-Drive Inspection

Conduct a thorough inspection before driving off:

  • Exterior Check: Look for scratches, dents, or any damage.
  • Interior Review: Ensure all features are functioning correctly.
  • Photographic Evidence: Take photos to document the car’s condition.

Planning Your Journey

Supercars are designed for performance, not practicality. Plan routes that allow you to enjoy the car’s capabilities, avoiding areas with heavy traffic or poor road conditions. For longer trips or additional luggage space, consider models like the Lamborghini Urus or Range Rover SVR.

Booking and Preparation

To ensure a seamless experience:

Advance Booking: Reserve your preferred model early, especially during peak seasons.

Documentation: Have your driver’s licence and any required identification ready.

Security Deposit: Be prepared for a refundable deposit as part of the rental agreement.

The Sound, the Speed, the Sophistication

Driving a supercar for the first time can be a thrilling yet unfamiliar experience. The moment the engine starts, you’re not simply in a car you’re in a high-performance machine built for precision and presence. Vehicles such as the Lamborghini Huracán EVO or McLaren 720S demand respect on the road. Their handling, acceleration, and responsiveness are significantly different from a standard vehicle.

Expect heightened sensitivity in:

  • Throttle response: These cars react instantly to pedal pressure.
  • Braking: High-performance braking systems require a lighter touch.
  • Turning radius: Low suspension may limit sharp manoeuvres in tight spaces.

It’s advisable to familiarise yourself with the car’s controls before driving. Our team at Luna Luxury Rentals provides a comprehensive pre-drive briefing with every booking.

Insurance & Security: Safeguarding the Experience

Supercar rentals come with added responsibility. While insurance is included in all Luna Luxury Rentals agreements, it’s important to understand your level of coverage.

Most agreements include:

  • Third-party liability
  • Comprehensive vehicle coverage
  • Excess reduction options for additional peace of mind

Security deposits are standard and refundable, provided the vehicle is returned without damage. Depending on the model whether it’s a Rolls-Royce Wraith, Ferrari 488 GTB, or BMW I8 the deposit amount may vary.

Always read the Rental Agreement Terms and Conditions thoroughly, which are outlined during the booking process.

Exploring Beyond the Drive: When Style Meets Purpose

At Luna Luxury Rentals, clients don’t just rent cars they create lasting impressions. Whether for a wedding, a corporate arrival, or a high-end photoshoot, choosing the right vehicle is a key part of the experience.

Road Etiquette and Driving Best Practices

Driving a supercar in Melbourne (or on surrounding highways) requires more than just skill it requires discipline and awareness.

Here’s what to keep in mind:

  • Stay within speed limits: Supercars can easily exceed legal limits. Controlled acceleration is key.
