Hire a Ferrari 812 Superfast in the UK
The Ferrari 812 Superfast is the most powerful naturally aspirated road car Ferrari has ever built. Its 6.5-litre V12 engine sits in a front mid-engine position behind the front axle and produces 800HP and 718Nm of torque, reaching 60mph in 2.9 seconds and 211mph at its limit. The name is accurate: 812 refers to the 800HP output and 12 cylinders. What distinguishes the 812 from every other Ferrari currently available for self-drive hire in the UK is the engine character. Where the twin-turbo V8 Ferraris in the fleet build power from low rpm through turbo pressure, the 812 V12 delivers power linearly from idle to its 8,900rpm redline. The sound changes character completely above 6,000rpm and reaches a frequency at full throttle that is unlike any turbocharged road car. It is a front mid-engine rear-wheel drive grand tourer, which means it has more of the characteristics of a long-distance high-speed car than the rear mid-engine V8 models, while remaining fully capable as a performance sports car.
812 Superfast vs the V8 Ferrari Models, What Is the Difference?
Every other Ferrari in the Starr self-drive fleet uses a twin turbocharged V8 engine. The F8 Tributo and 488 Pista produce 710HP and 711HP respectively from 3.9-litre V8 units. The 812 produces 800HP from a 6.5-litre V12 without any forced induction. The V8 Ferraris are rear mid-engine cars which gives them exceptional balance and agility. The 812 is a front mid engine car, longer and wider, with a driving experience that combines genuine grand touring capability at motorway speeds with the performance figures of a supercar. The steering on the 812 also uses rear-wheel steering at low speeds and high speeds for different reasons , at high speeds it increases stability, at low speeds it reduces the turning circle for a car of its dimensions. If you want the V8 mid-engine sports car experience, the F8 Tributo is the choice. If you want the V12 naturally aspirated grand tourer, the most powerful front engine Ferrari road car available for hire in the UK, the 812 Superfast is in a category of its own.

The 812 Superfast on UK Roads
The 812 Superfast covers distance at a rate that few UK hire cars can match. Its 800HP V12 delivers its full torque from low rpm at motorway speeds, meaning overtaking on dual carriageways requires minimal downshifts. At higher speeds its rear-wheel steering system increases stability noticeably. On A-roads with clear visibility, the front mid-engine layout gives it a composed and progressive handling character that rewards a smooth, deliberate driving style. The rear-wheel drive setup means it responds to throttle application mid-corner in a way that the understeer bias of heavier front-engine cars does not. For UK road trips from London to the Scottish Highlands, Edinburgh to the Lake District or across the Welsh mountain roads, the 812 is the most capable and characterful long-distance Ferrari available from the Starr fleet.
