Robbie and Navid

We hired the 66 Mustang convertible for our wedding. Robbie and Navid made the whole process seamless, the car was delivered on time and in great condition. They were very reasonably priced compared to other companies and were flexible when it came to fitting it around our schedule.

I would recommend and use their services again

A review from the fashion industry...

My review of RNG Classics is a little different to the rest, as I work in the fashion industry and have, on two occasions now (summer 2020 and 2023), visited Robbie of RNG Classics to shoot photography campaigns for luxury brands and magazines.

We hired out Robbie's collection for the day and shot campaigns around the grounds/farm. He was nothing but extremely helpful and forthcoming, going above and beyond to assist us with our work (moving cars around, granting access to areas to achieve the best shots, etc.). I'm yet to come back and hire a car for the day, but it's definitely on the to-do list! Couldn't recommend RNG Classics more, he's a top man with some beautiful cars.

Great car, communication should be better.

We hired the Triumph Spitfire for our wedding day, the car was great and in good condition. Robbie was very quick at responding to messages but would often forget what had been agreed, including the date and time to deliver the vehicle and the cost. Having to remind him of these details wasn't ideal, especially when you are managing so many other details planning a wedding. The delivery of the vehicle went fine and the delivery guy gave a demo of how to use the car.

Sorry you feel we missed a beat somewhere along the line. As you'll see from 90% of our reviews we are commended on our response time and dilligence. But a combined 44 emails from both yourself and your partner was more than a little excessive and confusing at times! Especially as we had to chase both separately for answers. Apologies if some detail slipped through in our busiest season of the year also.

Classic Car Show Travel

I wanted to hire a classic car as a surprise for my Dad to attend a premium car show, and when the first option had unforeseen problems, the guys went up and above to have a replacement for us at very short notice! We took the Porsche Speedster and it was an incredible drive as well as a great day out. Cheers Robbie!

Jaguar E Type. Cotswold

Rented the Jaguar E Type for three days, and what a great three days those were. A real beauty. It handled very well and gave me no troubles at all, sun or rain.
Robbie was so helpful and patient. He was so accommodating and responsive, day or night.
He made it so easy.
Thank you Robbie

Wedding day car rental

We had a great experience renting the Triumph Spitfire for our wedding day from RNG! Robbie delivered the car in the morning with a full briefing. The Spitfire was well maintained, and looked great for our photos. Great customer service and very friendly too. Thanks!

Highly Recommend

We hired RNG’s Porsche 356 for our wedding day, it looked stunning in our photos and added so much to the day. The car was easy to drive back to London and Robbie’s service before and on the day was excellent. The drop off and collection made everything so much easier.

Thank you, would highly recommend.

An Aston Martin DB9 for 24 hours…

Hired the Aston Martin DB9 for 24 hours as a 60th birthday experience. I spent a lot of time researching hire companies and tbh RNG were the only one offering a simplified approach to rental. Others wanted massive deposits, unrealistic rental times , drop off charges or were simply too expensive. So on price and package, RNG were the only choice. Robbie was really helpful and took time to talk about the company and the fleet- all the way it was a really enjoyable experience and a V12 6.0 Aston is something very special, but also easy to drive.

Couple of tips, yes they will be some small additional costs for taking payment via SumUp and yes the tracker and speed alerts do really work.. so if you hire the Aston keep it legal!

Would hire again

Took me awhile to find a classic mustang for my wedding but RNG made the experience very easy. I was impressed with the level of ownership in getting the car ready and dropped off to my location (even though I had changed the location on more than one occasion). The car was amazing quality! A lot people wanted to take pictures and waving at me whilst I was driving it. Robbie was a pleasant to deal with - definitely recommend RNG.

Fantastic experience from start to finish, hired the Rolls Royce for a day trip and was incredible wafting along in that classic beast! Rob was professional, knowledgable and definitely a true 'car guy', sorted everything for us.

Hassle free and brilliant experience, will use RNG again and would highly recommend.

exceptional

We wanted to extend our sincerest gratitude for the exceptional service you provided as our chauffeur on our wedding day on Saturday.

Your calming presence and attentiveness throughout the journey to the wedding venue made all the difference. You helped ease any nerves we had and ensured we arrived with plenty of time to spare, allowing us to fully embrace the joy of the day.

Even with the unexpected rain, you displayed unwavering professionalism and waited patiently to take us around as needed. Your dedication and commitment to ensuring our comfort and convenience did not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful for your thoughtful gestures.

We can't recommend your services enough to anyone in need of a reliable and attentive chauffeur (in a gorgeous car!). You played a significant role in making our wedding day truly special and memorable.

Once again, thank you for going above and beyond to make our day perfect. Your service was invaluable, and we will cherish the wonderful memories of our wedding forever

10/10 customer service

I recently rented the classic Land Rover to take my wife for a pub lunch for her birthday and I have to say that Robbie went above and beyond to make sure the day went without a hitch. Great communication, and good old-fashioned customer service that’s so rare these days. Highly recommend
