Sports car rental in Spain

Insurance, delivery and the car itself are all part of sports car rental in Spain with Rent-Trip, where 10 sports cars are available from €560 per day. We bring the car to you in Madrid and Barcelona, and every booking is agreed with a manager.

What sports car rental in Spain looks like with Rent-Trip

At Rent-Trip we keep 10 sports cars — BMW M3 and M4 Competition, Audi RS6 Performance, Nissan GT-R Black Edition, Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (992), Ford Mustang GT, Aston Martin Vantage and Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R. Rates run from €560 to €1,019 per day, every car is petrol and automatic, and the booking is agreed with a manager.

How self-drive works

We deliver the car to you — in Madrid or Barcelona — and you drive it yourself; the dates and the model are agreed with a manager when you book. You tell us the model, the days and the address, a manager confirms what is available, and the vehicle arrives. The fleet on this page is 10 cars, so the same model can be out on another booking while you are still choosing. In our practice the popular coupés disappear first around long weekends and the summer coast season. Agree the model and dates before you plan the route — with 10 cars in the class, peak weeks go early.

Ten sports cars, one class, all petrol and automatic

• 10 cars, one class: the sports class holds 10 cars from €560 per day, spread across eight models.
• Petrol only: no diesel and no electric option in this class — every car runs on petrol.
• Automatic only: there is no manual gearbox anywhere in the sports class.
• 2 to 5 seats: the range covers two-seat coupés, four-seat coupés and one five-seat body.
• 450 to 630 hp: power in the class starts at 450 hp and reaches 630 hp.
• Self-drive: you drive the car yourself for the whole booking.

Automatic matters in Spanish cities: stop-start traffic is where a manual becomes tiring, and a sports clutch in a jam is the fastest way to spoil a holiday.

The sports car rental fleet in Spain model by model

Our ten-strong fleet is made up entirely of coupés, sedans and estates with a petrol engine and an automatic gearbox. Eight distinct models sit behind those ten keys, spanning 2 to 5 seats, 450 to 630 hp, and €560 to €1,019 per day. Below is the whole lineup with the numbers that actually decide a booking: body style, seats, power and daily rate.

Every model, its seats, power and daily rate

The cheapest car in the class is also the only five-seat sedan — the BMW M3 Competition. Two units of the BMW M4 Competition and two of the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (992) are in the fleet, so the mid-range coupés are the easiest to secure on shorter notice.

Coupé, sedan or estate — which body style suits you

The class covers three body styles: coupé, sedan and estate. Six of the eight models are two-door coupés, the BMW M3 Competition is the lone sedan, and the Audi RS6 Performance is the only estate. The RS6 Performance carries five people and their luggage with 630 hp under the bonnet — in our experience it is the practical pick for a longer route, because it swallows suitcases a 2-seat Aston Martin Vantage simply cannot. If the trip is a coast road for two, the Vantage or the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R gives you the shape and the soundtrack. A four-seat coupé such as the Nissan GT-R Black Edition or the Ford Mustang GT splits the difference for a group of three or four.

All-wheel or rear-wheel drive in a sports car

• All-wheel drive: BMW M3 and M4 Competition, Audi RS6 Performance, Nissan GT-R Black Edition and Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (992) put power down through all four wheels.
• Rear-wheel drive: Ford Mustang GT, Aston Martin Vantage and Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R send everything to the back axle.
• Where it matters: rear-wheel drive rewards a dry mountain road, while all-wheel drive is the calmer choice when rain arrives on the same route.
• Power spread: the fleet runs from 450 hp in the Porsche and the Mustang to 630 hp in the RS6 Performance.

Rear-wheel drive asks for a gentler right foot out of tight bends — on a wet surface, an all-wheel car will let you carry more speed without the tail stepping out. Pick the drivetrain for the road you actually plan to drive, not for the badge.

Cost of sports car rental in Spain per day, week, month

Rates on this page run from €560 to €1,019 per day across ten sports cars. A week is charged as six days and a month as twenty-one, so the longer you book, the lower the effective daily cost.

Daily, weekly and monthly rates explained

A weekly booking starts at €3,360 and a monthly one at €11,760. The daily band is set by the model, not by the season: the BMW M3 Competition opens at €560, the Audi RS6 Performance sits at €616, the Nissan GT-R Black Edition at €756, both Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (992) at €832, the Ford Mustang GT at €836, the Aston Martin Vantage at €907 and the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R closes the range at €1,019. Multiply any of those by six and you get the week; by twenty-one and you get the month — the BMW M4 Competition, for instance, is €588 a day, €3,528 a week and €12,348 a month. In our experience the weekly step is where most customers stop comparing daily figures and start comparing total spend, because a seven-day booking at the daily rate would cost far more than the six-day charge actually applied.

What the price includes and what is agreed when booking

Mandatory third-party insurance is included in every hire, as Spanish law requires of any car legally on the road. Everything else that affects the final bill is written into the agreement rather than printed next to the price.

• Deposit: a pre-authorisation held against possible damage or extras; the amount is confirmed when you book, before anything is signed.
• Insurance excess: the sum you carry yourself if the car is damaged; it appears in the agreement whatever level of cover you choose.
• Delivery: arranged to you in Madrid or Barcelona, with the terms agreed at booking.
• Young-driver and licence conditions: minimum age, driving experience and which cards are accepted are set by the agreement, not by Spanish law.
• Fuel policy: agreed when you book, so you know what the tank should look like on return.

Ask about the excess before you settle on a model — it is printed in the agreement, not on the price tag, and it moves the real cost of a week more than the daily figure does.

Choosing the right sports car rental in Spain for your trip

The class answers one question first: how many people are travelling. Everything else — luggage, route, daily rate — follows from that.

Two seats, four seats or five — matching the car to the group

The fleet seats 2, 4 or 5 people, so group size decides the shortlist. The Aston Martin Vantage and the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R are 2-seat coupés at €907 and €1,019 per day — two people and soft bags, nothing more. Four seats cover the BMW M4 Competition, the Nissan GT-R Black Edition, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (992) and the Ford Mustang GT, from €588 to €836 per day. Five seats are the BMW M3 Competition at €560 per day and the Audi RS6 Performance at €616 — the only two cars here that take a full group with luggage. A 2-seat Vantage or AMG GT R is a two-person car: if a third traveller joins, the booking changes class, not just seat count.

Which sports car suits a city stay and which suits a long route

• City stay in Madrid or Barcelona: the BMW M4 Competition and the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S stay compact enough for narrow streets and underground car parks, and both come with automatic transmission for stop-start traffic.
• A long coastal or mountain route: the Audi RS6 Performance estate carries five people and their luggage, and its 630 hp makes overtaking on two-lane roads a short affair.
• Two people, dry mountain roads: the Ford Mustang GT and the Aston Martin Vantage put 450 hp and 510 hp through the rear wheels — rewarding on a dry surface, less forgiving in rain.
• Mixed weather or unfamiliar roads: all-wheel drive models such as the Nissan GT-R Black Edition and the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S hold their line in wet conditions.
• The lowest daily rate in the class: the BMW M3 Competition at €560 per day, the only five-seat sedan in the ten-car fleet.

Matching power and gearbox to the driver

Power in this class runs from 450 hp in the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S and the Ford Mustang GT to 630 hp in the Audi RS6 Performance, with the BMW M3 Competition and M4 Competition at 510 hp, the Nissan GT-R Black Edition at 570 hp, the Aston Martin Vantage at 510 hp and the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R at 585 hp. Every car on this page is petrol and automatic — there is no manual gearbox in the class, which matters more than horsepower on a city break. In our experience, drivers booking their first sports car overestimate the engine and underestimate the size: a 4.0 L coupé is wider than it looks when you are threading it into a hotel garage. Agree the model when you book — with ten cars in the fleet, the popular ones go first in peak weeks.

Sports car rental in Spain rules, licences and fines

Spanish road law applies to every sports car on this page, whether you collect it in Madrid or Barcelona. Speed limits, alcohol thresholds and phone rules are national, and a 510 hp coupé reaches illegal speed on a 120 km/h autovía before you notice.

Which licence you need

• EU/EEA licences: fully valid here while they have not expired. Nothing extra is required, and no international permit is needed.
• Third-country licences: valid for driving as a visitor if the licence is in force and you meet the Spanish age requirement for the equivalent category. Residents have six months from taking up ordinary residence, after which the licence must be exchanged.
• Licences not in Spanish: valid either with an official sworn translation into Spanish, or if issued under the format of Annex 9 of the Geneva Convention or Annex 6 of the Vienna Convention. For Cyrillic, Arabic or Japanese scripts this in practice means an international driving permit or a certified translation.
• International driving permit (Permiso Internacional de Conducción): a supplementary document. It is shown only together with your passport and your national licence, and it is valid for one year.

The DGT advises getting the international permit before the trip rather than on arrival.

Speed limits and what a fine costs

Speeding fines follow the DGT table: 100 EUR with no points, then 300 EUR with 2 points, 400 EUR with 4, 500 EUR with 6, and 600 EUR with 6 for the gravest cases. Exceeding the limit by more than 60 km/h in town or 80 km/h outside it stops being an administrative fine and becomes a criminal offence. Pay within 20 calendar days and the penalty is halved.

Alcohol, phones and seat belts

The general alcohol limit is 0.25 mg per litre of breath. For drivers in their first two years and for professional drivers it is 0.15 mg. Above 0.60 mg it is a criminal offence, and any presence of drugs in the body is grounds for a sanction on its own.

Drink-driving costs 500–1,000 EUR and 4–6 points. Holding a phone while driving is 200 EUR and 6 points; a seat-belt or child-seat offence is 200 EUR and 4 points, and the driver answers for a child without a restraint. Child seats are compulsory for anyone up to 135 cm tall.

Insurance, deposit and hand-over on a sports car rental in Spain

Every car we hand over leaves with mandatory third-party insurance already in the price, while the deposit, the excess and the hand-over paperwork are set out in the rental agreement. On a sports car those details matter more than on a compact, because the bodywork is low and wide and the cars in this class run from €560 to €1,019 a day.

What is included before you add anything

Third-party liability cover — Seguro Obligatorio de Responsabilidad Civil — comes with any car that is legally on a Spanish road, and it applies even if the person driving was not named in the agreement. It pays for damage to other people, not for the driver and not for the car itself. The legal limits behind it are 70,000,000 EUR per incident for personal injury and 15,000,000 EUR per incident for property damage, under Real Decreto Legislativo 8/2004, article 4.2, as amended by Ley 5/2025, with the amounts in force since 26.07.2025. Driving without that cover carries a fine of 601–3,005 EUR depending on the circumstances. In our experience the cover is never the part clients ask about — they ask about the excess, and the excess is the part that decides how a small scrape on a low-slung coupé ends.

Options that reduce what you pay yourself

• CDW (Collision Damage Waiver): a rental-company option that removes your liability for damage to the car itself after a collision with another vehicle or an object, minus the excess.
• THW (Theft Protection): covers full or partial theft and vandalism damage, again minus the excess.
• SCDW and SPCDW: partial and full buy-out of the excess that CDW leaves with you; neither works if CDW was not taken or if a CDW exclusion applies.
• STHW and SPTHW: the same partial and full buy-out, applied to the theft excess instead of the collision one.
• WWI (Glass and Tyres Protection): a separate option for windscreens and tyres, which standard CDW usually leaves out.
• Excess (franquicia): the amount you pay yourself when there is damage; it is printed in the rental agreement even when you have bought a buy-out.

The excess itself has no single official figure — it depends on the company and the car class, and the amount is set out in the rental agreement. The deposit is a pre-authorisation blocked on a credit card against possible damage and extras, and the amount is confirmed before signing. Spanish consumer rules require the advertised price to include every compulsory charge you cannot drive without, mandatory third-party cover among them.

Checking the car before you drive off

Spanish consumer rules require every scratch and dent to be written into the agreement or the inspection sheet before the car leaves, signed by both sides, with a copy kept by the renter — otherwise the damage is charged to you. On a low-slung coupé that means getting down to the sills and the front splitter, not just walking around the car. If the model you booked is not available, you may ask for another car at no extra cost, even one class above; if you are given a lower class, the price should come down, and if the car does not match the agreed terms — automatic gearbox, four doors — the booking can be cancelled and the prepayment returned. Fuel follows the lleno a lleno policy: full tank out, full tank back, with a fuel receipt if you have driven under 100 km and the gauge at 8/8 if you have driven more, refuelling within 25 km of the return office. Ask about the excess before you pick a model — it sits in the agreement, not on the price tag.

Booking sports car rental in Spain and getting the car delivered

Reserving a sports car with Rent-Trip is a short conversation, not a checkout form: you tell a manager the model, the dates and where you want the car brought, and the booking is agreed with that manager before anything is confirmed.

What we need from you to confirm a booking

• Model and dates: name the car you want and the exact days — the 10-car class runs from €560 to €1,019 per day, and the same model can differ in drivetrain.
• Delivery city: we hand the car over in Madrid or Barcelona; which address and what time are agreed with the manager when you book.
• Driver details: the main driver's licence and identity document are agreed at booking, and everything else is set out in the rental agreement, never a figure on this page.
• Contact channel: the manager confirms the details and stays your single point of contact from booking to hand-over.

Getting the car delivered instead of collecting it

The car comes to you — that is how every booking with us works, and the meeting point is agreed when the reservation is confirmed. The manager agrees the meeting point with you when the reservation is confirmed, and the hand-over is arranged around your arrival rather than the other way round. Because the class holds only 10 cars, the same model is not always available twice on the same dates: the BMW M4 Competition, for instance, appears in both all-wheel and rear-wheel drive, and the cheaper one goes first. In our experience the practical move is to lock the model and the dates before you book flights or a hotel — a confirmed car is worth more than a flexible itinerary you cannot drive.

Timing your booking around the season

Demand peaks hard in the warm months, and a 10-car fleet does not stretch. If your dates fall on a weekend or a public holiday, agree the car several weeks ahead rather than several days — the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S and the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT R are the first to go, and the €560 BMW M3 Competition is the first to be asked about. Weekly bookings start at €3,360 and monthly at €11,760, so a longer trip is agreed in one conversation with the manager rather than rebooked in stages. Tell the manager your route as well: it decides whether all-wheel drive is the sensible pick.
