Zeus Prestige brings luxury car rental in Barcelona to wherever your trip begins: Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN), your hotel, a private residence or the marina. Rent or hire a supercar, a sports car, an exotic or a luxury SUV and drive Catalonia on your own schedule. Supercar rental and exotic car rental in Barcelona suit the cliff roads of the Costa Brava, and sports car hire suits the tight coastal run south to Sitges.
The Romans founded Barcino some 2,000 years ago, and stretches of their wall still stand in the Gothic Quarter. Santa Maria del Mar went up in the 14th century, raised by the merchants and dockworkers of the Ribera. Then came Gaudí: the Sagrada Família, begun in 1882, with Casa Batlló and La Pedrera a few blocks apart on Passeig de Gràcia. Montjuïc hosted the 1992 Olympics, and below it Port Vell berths superyachts a short walk from the old town.
The day starts at La Boqueria, the market off La Rambla, with a counter stool and a plate of whatever came in that morning. Midday belongs to the vermouth hour, a glass over ice with olives and anchovies before a long lunch. By evening the light turns the stone of the Eixample gold, and the roads that matter are close: coast to the south, cliffs to the north, and a saw-toothed mountain an hour inland.
Take this one with the roof down. South of Castelldefels the C-31 leaves the through traffic to the motorway tunnels and clings to the Garraf massif, around 20 kilometres of bends cut into pale limestone with the sea directly below. The air is salt and warm scrub, and the tighter corners leave your palms a little damp on the wheel. Sitges waits at the far end, whitewashed and unhurried, with its church standing over the beach. Have lunch there, then turn round. The car is at its best with the afternoon sun behind it and the same corners in reverse.
This drive is made for a sports car or a supercar. Head north for a little over an hour to Tossa de Mar, where a medieval walled town stands above the beach, and pick up the GI-682 toward Sant Feliu de Guíxols. The next 21 kilometres pack in around 365 bends, one for each day of the year, threading red rock and pine high above the coves. There are no villages on the way, only corners, and your heart rate rises with each one that tightens. Pull into a viewpoint, switch off, and listen to the sea a long way down. Then drive it back the other way, where a quick, well-balanced car makes every bend feel new.
A luxury SUV or a grand touring car fits this day best. About an hour northwest of the city, the C-55 follows the Llobregat river to Monistrol, and the BP-1121 climbs from there toward a ridge of rounded stone pinnacles. The Benedictine abbey sits at around 720 metres, founded in 1025 and home to La Moreneta, the Black Madonna of Catalonia. Arrive early, when the bells are the only sound. On the climb the cabin stays calm and quiet, the seats hold you gently through each hairpin, and the car carries the whole day without asking anything of you.
