Groom Cars

We love cars at Great Escape and we choose to rent classic cars that we just really like. We don't focus group or workshop our choices, we just pick great cars.

Your wedding day is a perfect opportunity to indulge a passion and drive the classic car you've always loved. Self drive classic car hire adds an extra dimension to your big day and puts you both in full control so that you can make your special day unique. With a self drive classic rental you can enjoy the trip, not the chauffeur.

We've got a great choice of Groom Cars including coupes and convertibles from the 70s, 80s and 90s. They're perfect for getting to the church with your groom and then zooming off to the reception with your bride. And combine them with one of our bridal cars and you can save 10% on the total classic car hire cost.

Complete Wedding Car Package

Our groom cars can be combined with saloon bridal cars to create a unique and complete self drive classic car hire package for your wedding. You could choose a coupe or convertible for the Groom to get to the church with the Best Man, with one of our bridal cars for the bride of course. Then the bride and groom can leave the church for the venue in the Groom's car and the family and bridesmaids can follow in the bridal car.

Wedding Hire Service

We'll help you make the most of our cars for your big day. Our standard hire package includes 24 hours use and unlimited mileage, so you get complete flexibility to plan your arrangements - without having to increase the cost. Our wedding hire package also includes ribbon decorations. We're centrally located and can deliver cars to most regional locations. You can also come and look at the cars, without obligation, before you make your decision.

Choose 2+ cars, save 10%

When you choose to combine two or more of our cars for your wedding we'll take 10% off your total hire price. So for example, if you chose the Jaguar and Jensen for two days each, you'd save £70.
