Supercar club arrives in Dubai

DUBAI // Scuderia-250 has launched what it describes as the first supercar rental club in the Middle East. The organisation, which is based in Dubai, aims to offer its members access to a range of supercars for, on average, 55 days a year. Scuderia-250 members will pay an annual subscription of Dh55,000, for which they will be entitled to use a fleet of premium cars, including offerings from Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati and Rolls-Royce. Scuderia-250 plans to launch another branch of the supercar club in Abu Dhabi in early 2009. There will be a limited number of memberships available in both cities.
