Wedding Cars In Nottingham- HIBs or anyone who is in the know!

Umbrellacademic, 12 September, 2009 at 15:33 Posted on Planning 0 2

My dad loves cars and actually met my mother while he was the chaffeur at a wedding...we have a miniscule budget but I would love to surprise him with a vintage car to take us from the house to the ceremony. It's a half hour journey, mid week in December. I understand that there are fixed costs involved- the car being tied up so not free for full day, cleaning, driver etc etc but all the quotes I have had have been way out of line with what I can justify spending. I feel bad as it's sort of a gift to my dad - it is a surprise for him.

Does anyone know anyone who would maybe be able to give me a more reasonable figure fitting in with the shortness of the journey and the fact it is off peak. Sorry if I am not supposed to post this query on here- I just would love your help.

    Thanks Debs....I have a number of quotes but all above £250, which seems a lot for a very short journey-20-30 minutes at most. Maybe I am just really naive! Maybe that is standard!

    Thanks for the links- not tried all of those yet

    I think it depends on the cars you are after as well.

    My first choice was vintage and for 2 cars I was quoted £540 but I have changed my mind to 2 American style Limos and they are costing £600, our journey is only about 1/2 hour as well, depending on traffic.
