Bethany Smart
We were lucky enough to have Mick as our wedding car driver, and what an incredible experience it was from start to finish.
My mum had arranged it as a surprise for us, and when I stepped out of The Ritz on our wedding day to be greeted by Mick and his stunning vintage classic car, it felt like something out of a movie. The car itself was absolutely beautiful — elegant, timeless, and such a special touch for photographs and for travelling around London on our big day.
But as amazing as the car was, Mick himself was truly the cherry on top. He’s one of the friendliest, warmest people you could hope to meet, so chatty and fun in the best way. We were eloping in London with no family around us, and Mick instantly became a huge part of the day. On our drive to Islington Town Hall, we bonded so much with him — laughing, chatting, and feeling completely at ease. It turned what could have been a nerve-wracking journey into one of our favourite memories.
When we came out of the Town Hall, Mick was right there with his camera ready, capturing behind-the-scenes photos for us, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch. We even got a photo together, and honestly, we’re going to miss Mick after only spending a short time with him. That’s the kind of person he is, someone who makes such an impression that you feel like you’ve known him forever.
His car is incredible, his presence is unforgettable, and we can’t recommend him enough. We wish we could do the whole day again just to have Mick drive us around London and share more laughs together. What a wonderful human being and what a gift he was to our wedding day.

The Ritz and a fabulous couple... I'm lost for words... such as incredible review. We're privileged to have been there for Beth and Josh and spend the day with them. 'Audrey' the Art Deco saloon is also very appreciative, thank you.
James Honey
Classic Care Hire (Mick) was extremely professional and polite throughout both the booking process and on our wedding day.
Mick went above and beyond — not only was he friendly and engaging with our guests, chatting passionately about the car, but he also added thoughtful touches that made the day feel extra special. The car itself was in immaculate condition and looked perfect in our wedding photos.
A particularly kind gesture was when Mick drove my mother-in-law a short distance to her own car so she wouldn’t have to walk in heels — a true gentleman.
I honestly couldn’t recommend Mick highly enough.

Bami
We had a brilliant experience with Mick and Classic Car Event Hire. The car looked stunning and added a real sense of occasion to the day, but it was Mick’s calm and helpful presence that stood out the most. He was punctual, professional, and made sure we got to the reception smoothly – even stepping in to help us manage a hiccup when we couldn’t access our hotel room. He truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend Mick if you want someone reliable, kind, and experienced on your big day. Thank you again! More...

Mohamed Hasham
Wedding Car Hire
5 stars isn’t sufficient for what Mick did for us on my Daughters wedding .. at least 6 stars is what Classic Car Event Hire deserves.
Mick was very professional, courteous, patient and above all, went beyond what he was had requested. He understood fully that not everything happens on time .. nor in sequence.
The one day when this part ‘could have gone wrong’, he made it happen in a way that made it memorable. It’s true that sometimes, we have to take a leap of faith; with Mick, it was his understanding to accommodate and make it happen; now that’s “special” !
So, thanks very, very much Mick .. the superb classic car and yourself were “absolutely brilliant”🤩

Tayo
Wedding Car Hire
The service Mick provided was exceptional! He arrived early, and he was incredibly polite. Mick added to our beautiful experience by going the extra mile for us to make our day even more special. The car was perfect as well! He was very patient with us even when we were running out of time, and his knowledge of London roads is exceptional. We could tell that Mick has great experience, especially when it comes to customer service. My wife and I, and also our guests couldn't stop talking about how lovely Mick was. I've already started recommending him to my mates! If you are considering adding a nice touch to your wedding day, you are making the right decision if you go with Mick! Thanks again for your service! More...

We rented Mick's vintage car for our wedding on the 24th of August 2024.
The booking process was effortless with Mick being super helpful and responding to our questions within minutes.
On the day, Mick arrived with plenty of time ( which helped with my nerves) and the car was in pristine condition, exactly as it appeared in the photos, and it was beautifully decorated!
We couldn't have chosen any better , Mick was great fun and super helpful throughout the whole process! We highly recommend him :)

Jenna Watson-Jones
Wedding Car Hire
Where to start! Mick arrived early, much to the delight of onlookers. The pictures do not do Audrey justice, she is even more beautiful in real life. Despite being more than 70 years old, the ride was smooth and you could tell she still had plenty more memories to be a part of. Mick was a wonderful, knowledgeable chauffeur- happy to leave you to enjoy the ride but equally happy to answer questions, share knowledge and tell you wonderful stories of his time in the music business. Mick went above and beyond, making it such a personal, special experience. You can keep your modern super cars, give me a gorgeous car with a story to tell, any day. We are so happy that Audrey got to be a part of our story. Thank you, Mick. More...

We were already excited by the photos, but the car was even better in the flesh.

Jake
We had the pleasure of renting a classic car from Mick for our wedding day, and it was an experience beyond our expectations.
From start to finish, Mick's professionalism, attention to detail, and passion for classic cars shone through.
First and foremost, the car itself was immaculate. It was clear that Mick takes great pride in maintaining his vehicles to the highest standards. From the gleaming exterior to the pristine interior, every detail was flawless. Our chosen classic car added an elegant touch to our wedding day, creating timeless memories that we will cherish forever.
Mick's service was exceptional from the moment we made our initial inquiry. He was responsive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect for our special day. His knowledge and expertise in classic cars were evident, and he took the time to answer all of our questions and offer valuable advice to ensure a seamless experience.
On the day of the wedding, Mick arrived punctually and conducted himself with the utmost professionalism. He was courteous, friendly, and ensured that we felt comfortable and relaxed throughout the journey. His attention to detail extended to every aspect of the service, from the route taken to the final presentation of the car at our venue.
Renting a classic car from Mick was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Not only did it add a touch of sophistication and charm, but it also provided us with unforgettable memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. We cannot recommend Mick and his classic car rental service highly enough. If you're looking for a unique and memorable addition to your special occasion, look no further than Mick's classic cars. You won't be disappointed.
Thank you, Mick, for helping to make our wedding day truly magical.
