Frequently Asked Questions
What age requirements apply to renting a McLaren supercar in Italy?
Drivers typically need to be at least 25 to 30 years old, depending on the specific McLaren model requested. The primary driver must hold a full national driving licence for a minimum of two to three years. Non-EU residents must present an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside their original licence, and exact minimum age criteria will be confirmed in your personalised quote.
How many kilometres are included daily, and can extra distance allowances be extended in advance?
Daily rates include a standard daily distance allowance tailored for local driving. If you plan extensive touring across Northern Italy or cross-border travel into Switzerland, extended mileage packages or unlimited kilometre options can be pre-booked prior to handover and explicitly detailed in your rental agreement.
How is the security deposit pre-authorization processed for a McLaren rental in Milan?
The security deposit acts as a pre-authorised excess hold placed on the primary driver’s physical credit card up to 72 hours prior to delivery. Presenting a valid physical card with a readable CVV code is mandatory. Once the supercar is returned following joint inspection in its original condition, the pre-authorised hold is fully released.
