## What is the Mustang GT like to drive?

Big, loud and unhurried. The 5.0-litre Coyote V8 makes around 446bhp without turbochargers, so the noise builds with the revs and the throttle response is immediate. It reaches 62mph in 4.5 seconds through a ten-speed automatic. It is happiest flowing along an open A-road rather than being hustled through tight corners, and it makes no apology for that.

## Is it a serious performance car?

It is a serious character car, which is a different thing and worth being clear about. A BMW M4 will be quicker across country and better resolved through a corner. The Mustang gives you an atmospheric V8, rear-wheel drive and a shape people recognise from fifty paces, at the lowest monthly figures on this list. That trade is the whole point of it.

## What does it cost to hire a Ford Mustang GT?

A refundable deposit near £2,000 and a matching insurance excess are typical, with 12,000 miles a year included and £1.50 a mile after that. Drivers need to be 25 or over with three years of full licence.

## Does it work for a prom or a photoshoot?

It is one of the best cars here for both. The shape reads instantly in a photograph, the V8 makes an entrance without any effort from the driver, and the monthly figure leaves room in the budget. There are four seats, though the rear pair are for short journeys. All hires are self-drive by the named driver.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does the Mustang GT have a V8?

Yes. The GT uses a 5.0-litre naturally aspirated Coyote V8 of around 446bhp. It is the engine that gives the car its soundtrack, and it is the reason most people hire one.

### Is it a manual or an automatic?

The cars we source are the ten-speed automatic. Manual Mustangs exist and can be requested, but they are far scarcer in the hire fleet and need more notice.

### Can a 25-year-old hire a Mustang GT?

Yes, with three years of full UK licence and no more than six points. It is one of the more accessible cars in the catalogue for younger drivers, though the driving record still has to stand up.

*Performance & Prestige hires vehicles from its own fleet and, where a vehicle is not one of ours, arranges it through a vetted partner. Cars marked "we can source" are subject to confirmation before anything is agreed. Rates include VAT. Nothing is booked or paid for through this website: a person confirms the car, the full cost and the delivery slot with you first.*

*Pre-launch note: the rates, driver criteria, deposits, excesses and mileage allowances quoted here are read from Performance & Prestige's own catalogue data, which is still being confirmed with the owner and the insurer.
