Hiya, I can't help with the vehicle, but I believe that all the big hire companies will supply Lynx type hand controls if given advance notice. Good luck.

Both Avis and Hertz hire cars with hand controls and if you give them enough notice you can have almost any model as long as your prepared to pick up from a larger depot. As said above they both use Lynx controls which are very simple to use - I drive my Cooper S everyday with them.

Drop Neil at Lynx Controls (telephone is best) and he maybe able to sort you out directly. See: http://www.lynxcontrols.com/
