What are the costs?
We charge a flat day rate of £120 for 24 hours rental, plus any additional insurance costs if they are needed (these may apply if you have points on your license or have had recent motor insurance claims etc). We reserve the right to refuse hire if you do not meet our insurers criteria or we have concerns about your eligibility to hire one of our cars.
We do not hire the cars by the hour, a minimum of 24 hours hire is required.
We require a holding deposit of £100 to secure your booking and a further deposit of £500 which is fully refundable at the time of collecting the vehicle.
How it works
To hire one of our cars you (the driver) must be between the age of 25 and 75.
All drivers must be in possession of a current, full valid driving licence. UK Licence holders, with the new style driving licence MUST produce both the photo card and Convictions Verification Page from the DVLA Database. Drivers with foreign driving licences must present their own national licence, plus an International Driving Permit (IDP) if a non-EU, EEA resident. All other drivers may drive in the UK for up to one year from commencement of residency in accordance with the current DVLA restrictions. Sight of their Passport is required for proof of entry.
In addition to the main hirer, it is possible for two other hirers to be insured to drive the vehicle, provided they meet our insurance requirements.
Please see our Terms and Conditions for the full criteria for hire and any restrictions. We have partnered with Insure Car Hire who are our insurance provider for your hire.
If you are not sure about meeting the driver criteria, please contact us and we can provide further information and speak to the insurers if required.
Hire a car for special occasions
Whether it’s a birthday, celebration, wedding or even a honeymoon road trip, our little MX-5 sportscars are perfect for your special day. Affordable and bags of fun, imagine arriving at your event or just heading away after your wedding in your own open top roadster.
How to book
Please contact us to enquire about vehicle availability and to make a booking. If you have any special requirements, please contact us directly and we will try and accommodate you if we can.
What’s included?
The car will come with a full tank of (E5 petrol) fuel and all necessary equipment to operate it. The car will come with its owners manual, which should answer any questions you may have during the hire. The cars are very simple to operate, but we will talk you through their operation, covering things like the operation of the soft top convertible roof, when you pick the car up. Breakdown and recovery assistance with the RAC is included should it be needed. We limit mileage to no more than 150 miles in any 24 hour hire period. Any excess mileage will be chargeable at £1.50 per mile.
About the cars
We currently have two 2002 Mazda MX-5’s on fleet for rent. We plan to expand this offering over time and in line with demand. Both cars will be in good mechanical and cosmetic order, with valid MOT’s, but will have some marks, wear and tear, commensurate with being more than 20 years old modern classics that are not brand new. We have chosen the ever popular Mazda MX5 as being a solid, fun and easy to drive modern classic sports car, that is also affordable to buy, rent and operate. We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do.
