LuxuryCarHire.Club provides unique car hire across Canterbury and Kent from £400/day. Drive a DeLorean DMC-12 through Canterbury's medieval streets, tour the Cathedral precincts in a London Black Cab TX, or take a Citroën DS through the Alkham Valley vineyards. Canterbury's UNESCO World Heritage setting — where 11th century architecture meets 21st century supercars — creates a context for unique vehicle experiences that no other Kent city can match.
Our Canterbury unique vehicle fleet includes the DeLorean DMC-12 (from £500/day), London Black Cab TX (from £400/day), Citroën DS (from £450/day), Aston Martin DB5 (from £950/day), Porsche 356 Speedster (from £550/day), Morgan Plus Four (from £450/day), VW Campervan T2 (from £400/day), and Fiat 500 Abarth (from £350/day). Each vehicle carries a story, a visual identity, and a driving character that conventional luxury cars cannot replicate. The DeLorean's gull-wing doors opening outside Canterbury Cathedral, a London Black Cab weaving through the medieval lanes, a Citroën DS gliding through the Alkham Valley's vineyard belt — these are experiences built around Canterbury's unique combination of UNESCO heritage, medieval streetscapes, and Kent countryside. Every unique vehicle hire includes a handler or chauffeur option, with Canterbury route recommendations that pair the vehicle's character with the landscape it suits best.
“"Hired the DeLorean for my husband's 40th birthday — gull-wing doors opening at Canterbury Cathedral was the moment that made the day. The contrast between the stainless steel bodywork and the medieval stonework is extraordinary. Everyone in the Cathedral precincts stopped to photograph it."”
, — Rachel, Canterbury, CT1Canterbury's UNESCO World Heritage status — the Cathedral, St Augustine's Abbey, and St Martin's Church — places unique vehicles in a setting of global significance. A DeLorean DMC-12 with gull-wing doors open on the Cathedral precincts creates an image that juxtaposes 1980s cinematic culture with 11th century architecture. A London Black Cab TX navigating the medieval lanes feels as natural as it does on London streets — Canterbury's narrow passages and ancient gateways provide the same intimate urban fabric. No other Kent city offers this level of architectural heritage as a backdrop for unique vehicle experiences.
The Alkham Valley between Canterbury and Dover passes through Kent's expanding vineyard belt. The Citroën DS — with its hydraulic suspension floating over every chalk downland undulation — suits the vineyard landscape as though the car was designed for it. The Morgan Plus Four with its top down through hop gardens and orchards creates the quintessential English countryside touring image. Canterbury's unique vehicles and Kent's vineyard country combine to offer driving experiences that feel curated rather than merely hired.
Fordwich, 2 miles east of Canterbury, holds the distinction of being England's smallest town — a single-street medieval settlement with a 16th century town hall, riverside position, and no through traffic. The VW Campervan T2 parked beside the Fordwich Arms, the Fiat 500 Abarth on the medieval bridge, or the Porsche 356 Speedster outside the town hall — Fordwich's diminutive scale makes unique vehicles look like they belong in a storybook setting. Fordwich is quiet, photogenic, and accessible within 5 minutes of Canterbury city centre.

The signature Canterbury unique vehicle experience. The DeLorean DMC-12 arrives at the Cathedral precincts with gull-wing doors opening to reveal the stainless steel bodywork against the Gothic stonework. Birthday gifts, film fan experiences, and content creation — the DeLorean at Canterbury is the most photographed unique vehicle booking we offer. From £500/day.
Vineyard tours in the Citroën DS
The Citroën DS through the Alkham Valley vineyards — hydraulic suspension smoothing the chalk downland roads, the car's futuristic 1960s design creating a contrast with the ancient landscape. Stop at Barnsole Vineyard for a tasting. A unique Canterbury experience that combines automotive character with Kent's wine country. From £450/day.
London Black Cab Canterbury tours
The London Black Cab TX with a Canterbury tour driver — past the Cathedral, through the medieval lanes, to Fordwich and Whitstable. The Cab handles Canterbury's narrow streets as naturally as London's, and the rear-seat experience gives passengers the freedom to photograph and absorb the city. From £400/day.
Morgan Plus Four Kent countryside
Top-down touring from Canterbury through Chilham, Wye, and the Elham Valley in a Morgan Plus Four. The car's British heritage matches Kent's orchards, oast houses, and village greens. A self-drive day covering 60-80 miles of Kent countryside at Morgan pace — unhurried, absorbing, and genuinely unique. From £450/day.

“"Citroën DS through the Alkham Valley vineyards — the suspension makes the chalk downland roads feel like glass. Stopped at Barnsole Vineyard, drove through Elham, and back to Canterbury through Barham. The most characterful driving day I've had in Kent."”
“"Morgan Plus Four for a self-drive day from Canterbury to Chilham and the Elham Valley. Top down, warm May sun, orchards in blossom, the Morgan burbling through villages. Kent's countryside seen from a Morgan is how English touring should always feel."”
The Canterbury Cathedral circuit is the foundation of every unique vehicle experience in the city. Starting from the Cathedral precincts, the route passes through the Buttermarket, along the King's Mile, through Westgate Towers, and back via St Dunstan's Street — a 2-mile loop that passes every significant medieval landmark in Canterbury. The DeLorean's gull-wing doors at Christ Church Gate, the London Black Cab on the Buttermarket, the Morgan Plus Four beneath Westgate Towers — each stop within the loop provides a distinct visual context.
The Alkham Valley vineyard route takes unique vehicles from Canterbury south via the A2 to Lydden, then west through the Alkham Valley to Temple Ewell and back to Canterbury via Barham. The 35-mile loop passes vineyards, hop oasts, and chalk downland — the Citroën DS handles the undulating terrain with its characteristic suspension grace, while the Morgan Plus Four rewards the open views with top-down touring. Allow 3 hours with vineyard stops.
Fordwich, Canterbury's nearest unique destination, provides an intimate setting for vehicle photography and short experiences. The medieval bridge, the town hall, and the Fordwich Arms on the riverbank create a compact but photogenic environment. A 2-hour hire covers a Canterbury city tour followed by a Fordwich stop — ideal for birthday surprises and social media content.
The A28 to Chilham (8 miles) extends the unique vehicle experience into Kent's countryside. Chilham's Jacobean square — castle gates, timber-framed houses, medieval church — provides a heritage setting where the Aston Martin DB5, Porsche 356 Speedster, and Morgan Plus Four are visually at home.
