Surrey is one of England's finest counties for vintage motoring — country estates, winding lanes through the North Downs, and a heritage stretching back to Brooklands, the world's first purpose-built motor racing circuit just fifteen miles north of Guildford. Our vintage fleet — Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, Bentley S-Series, and Jaguar E-Type — brings period elegance to Surrey estate weddings at Loseley Park and Great Fosters, Brooklands heritage events, and scenic tours through the Surrey Hills from £595 per day.
Our Guildford vintage collection is chosen for its combination of period authenticity, mechanical reliability, and visual presence at Surrey's most photographed venues. The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is our flagship vintage wedding car — built between 1965 and 1980, the Silver Shadow introduced monocoque construction to Rolls-Royce and remains the definitive image of British luxury motoring. Our example is finished in Shell Grey over Magnolia leather, maintained to concours standard, and presented with ribbons and flowers to your specification. The Bentley S-Series predates the Silver Shadow — a coachbuilt grand touring saloon from the late 1950s, with a straight-six engine, handcrafted ash frame, and a cabin finished in Connolly leather and walnut veneer. It carries the gravitas of a bygone era and photographs magnificently against the Elizabethan stonework of Loseley Park or the Lutyens architecture of Great Fosters. The Jaguar E-Type is the sporting alternative — described by Enzo Ferrari as the most beautiful car ever made. Our Series 1 roadster in British Racing Green turns every Surrey lane into a photographic backdrop, and the 4.2-litre straight-six provides effortless performance for scenic tours through the Surrey Hills. We also carry the Daimler DS420 Limousine for formal ceremonies and the Austin-Healey 3000 for spirited open-top touring. Vintage car hire in Guildford starts from £595 per day, with half-day wedding packages available. Every vehicle is maintained by marque specialists, fully insured for ceremonial use, and delivered to your Guildford address with a uniformed chauffeur who understands the art of unhurried, elegant driving.
“"The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow was the perfect car for our wedding at Loseley Park. Collected from Guildford Cathedral after the ceremony and driven through the estate gates — the photographs against the Elizabethan house are the centrepiece of our album. The chauffeur was impeccable. Everything was exactly as promised."”

Guildford sits within reach of some of England's most beautiful wedding venues. Loseley Park — a Grade I listed Elizabethan manor house just two miles south — is surrounded by formal gardens that provide a perfect backdrop for vintage car photographs. Great Fosters in Egham, a Jacobean mansion set in 50 acres of parkland, complements the Bentley S-Series perfectly. Foxhills in Ottershaw and Pennyhill Park in Bagshot complete the quartet of premium Surrey estate venues we serve regularly from Guildford.
Brooklands in Weybridge — just fifteen miles north of Guildford — is the birthplace of British motorsport. The world's first purpose-built motor racing circuit opened in 1907, and today the Brooklands Museum hosts heritage events, classic car rallies, and motoring celebrations throughout the year. Arriving at a Brooklands event in a period-correct Jaguar E-Type or Bentley S-Series connects your journey to the venue's history in a way no modern car can replicate.
Every vintage car in our Guildford fleet is maintained to concours standard by marque-specialist workshops. The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is serviced by a Crewe-trained technician; the Jaguar E-Type by a Coventry specialist. Paintwork, chrome, leather, and woodwork are all maintained to show condition. On wedding days, the car is dressed with ribbons and flowers to your colour scheme and presented with the cabin detailed, the chrome polished, and the engine warm and ready.

A Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow or Bentley S-Series arriving at Loseley Park, Great Fosters, or Foxhills completes the visual story of a Surrey estate wedding. Our chauffeur collects the bride from her Guildford address, drives the scenic route to the ceremony venue, and waits throughout the day for photographs and the departure to the reception. The car becomes part of the wedding album.
Brooklands Heritage Events
Brooklands Museum in Weybridge hosts classic car rallies, vintage motoring events, and heritage celebrations throughout the year. Arriving in a period-correct E-Type, Silver Shadow, or Austin-Healey connects your car to the circuit's history. We provide delivery from Guildford to the museum gates, with the option of self-drive for experienced enthusiasts on private event days.
Surrey Hills Scenic Tours
An afternoon in the Jaguar E-Type through the Surrey Hills — top down, straight-six singing through the gears, Shere village for afternoon tea, Newlands Corner for the view. Our touring routes cover 40–60 miles of the finest lanes in the AONB, with stops at countryside pubs and viewpoints. Available as self-drive or chauffeur-driven from Guildford.
Anniversary & Celebration Hire
Recreating the car from a wedding day, marking a golden anniversary with a Silver Shadow tour, or surprising a classic car enthusiast with a day in an E-Type — vintage car hire from Guildford creates memories that modern vehicles simply cannot replicate. We match the car to the era and the occasion.
Film, Photography & Editorial
Surrey's countryside and period properties make it a popular filming location, and our vintage fleet is available for editorial shoots, fashion photography, and film production. The E-Type on a Surrey lane, the Silver Shadow outside a country house — we provide the vehicle, the setting knowledge, and flexible availability for production schedules operating from Guildford.

“"Hired the E-Type for a Brooklands heritage day — driven from Guildford to Weybridge in a British Racing Green Series 1 roadster. The car was immaculate, the engine sounded glorious, and arriving at Brooklands in a period-correct E-Type felt absolutely right. Already planning a Surrey Hills tour for the autumn."”
“"The Bentley S-Series for our wedding at Great Fosters was extraordinary. The car has a presence that photographs cannot fully capture — the coachwork, the leather, the quiet authority of the engine. Our Guildford guests were genuinely moved by it. A decision we will never regret."”
