We just want to be close to you

The price of travelling isn't getting cheaper, despite the occasional tweak to the fuel price.  So we thought we'd bring what we do here at Great Escape Classic Car Hire closer to you.  In the past if you wanted to hire a classic car it meant a journey of several hours to pick it up, and probably an overnight hotel stay too.  Not any more.

Over the past couple of years we've been developing our network of local classic car hire sites so that you don't have to travel far to enjoy a classic car.  From the original centrally located site in the Midlands we now have 11 locations across England, from Devon to Yorkshire and all points in between   And we've just added two more - in Wiltshire and Hampshire. It gives you the biggest choice of classic cars and the widest choice of starting points from one company in the UK.  In fact, you're never more than 90 minutes drive from a Great Escape site anywhere in England.

All of which means it is now cheaper and more convenient than ever to hire a classic car.  So when you give someone one of our gift vouchers you're not committing them to excessive travel costs.  They may not even need to stay overnight.

We operate two site networks - Managed Sites, that are owned and operated by Great Escape staff in Devon, Cotswolds and Yorkshire.  And a network of smaller Owner Operated sites that are owned and run by classic car enthusiasts who hire out their own vehicles based on systems and controls set by Great Escape.

Here's the latest list of our sites:

Larger Great Escape managed sites:

Devon
Yorkshire
Cotswolds

Owner Operated sites:

Hampshire
Wiltshire
Northamptonshire
Peak District
France
Oxford
Shropshire
London

Every site operates to strict systems and standards set by Great Escape Classic Car Hire, so wherever you hire from you get the same high level of personal service and vehicle preparation.

With the network of locations in place we have also been busy developing the choice of cars available at each site.  From our Devon, Yorkshire and Cotswolds managed site you will find an example of each of the most popular hire cars in the UK, including E Types, Triumphs, MGs and Jaguar Mk2s. Our Owner Operated Network tends to have more specialised cars but we ensure each site has a good range and choice.

We follow this flexibility through with our Christmas classic car gift voucher packages.  You can buy a voucher for a particular price band of car or a particular car - as we have several examples of each price band at each site and also several examples of our most popular cars across the country it means the recipient gets some real choice - of car or location.

The Christmas gift that goes on giving

Driving a classic car is, for many, the stuff that dreams are made of.  It's all about making a memory and it's one that lasts.  If you've done the bottles of whisky, hampers, woolly jumpers and socks then make this year really special with a classic car gift experience.
Unlike super car driving days that involving queuing up on a windswept airfield for 5 minutes in a tired Lamborghini a classic car gift experience puts you in control.  You can choose to buy a voucher that puts them behind the wheel of their dream car for 24 hrs, giving them the freedom to take it wherever they want on any road they choose.  Or you can buy them a seat on a driving tour where they will sample at least 5 different cars, enjoy great scenery and the company of like-minded enthusiasts.  All for the price of a super car driving day.

Great Escape Classic Car Hire has the widest choice of classic cars available to hire anywhere in the UK.  Starting from one of our 9 pick up locations - including Devon, Cotswolds and Yorkshire - you can choose virtually any classic car from a Morris Minor to an Aston Martin, with prices starting from just £95 for 24 hrs hire.  Great Escape offers several different ways to buy a voucher too - you can buy a voucher for a specific price band of car and let the recipient choose the car and dates they want, or select a specific car and leave them to decide when they want to hire it.  With several examples of the most popular cars based around the countryside, you don't even have to travel far to start your experience.

Great Escape also offers a range of classic car gift experiences and packages, including its popular classic car driving tours that operate from its sites in Cotswolds and Yorkshire.  For just £199 you can get behind the wheel of several different classic cars during a day of driving over 100 miles around the beautiful local countryside.
The full range of Great Escape Classic Car Hire gift packages are available to buy online through Great Escape's gift shop or you can buy by phone by calling 01527 893733. During December Great Escape is offering 10% off all bookings - just use discount code '10' online or claim your discount by phone.

Drive the car, now watch the video

We've teamed up with the rather excellent Classic Cars Driven website to create a full length video of some of our most popular cars.  The video is a collection of reviews by Matt Nichols, the brains behind the website and the video.  Already very popular on YouTube we've collected them together for the first in a series of DVDs covering popular classic cars.

The 70 minute DVD is the perfect accompaniment for anyone who has driven one of our cars or plans to.  The first series features 10 different classic cars, including Great Escape Classic Car Hire's Jaguar E Type convertible, Jensen Interceptor, MGB, Porsche 911T, Jaguar Mk2 and HMC Healey MkIV, alongside a Triumph TR4a, Mini Cooper, Alfa GTV and Daimler Dart.  There is in-car and external footage of each car plus a continuous commentary from Matt on the driving experience. 

The new Classic Cars Driven DVD is available to buy from the Great Escape Classic Cars website for just £14.99.  It can be bought online or by phone on 01527 893733.

Great Escape works with Classic Cars Driven to provide vehicles from its fleet for Matt to review.  Article and video review are produced on each car and can be viewed on the website at www.classiccarsdriven.com.

Our Christmas guarantee: one price, no hidden extras

We know that there are a multitude of ways in which online retailers try to bump up their margins.  They call them delivery charges, administration fees, booking fee, processing fee, any one of a number of fancy names.  We call them a rip off. Whatever you buy from Great Escape Classic Car Hire this Christmas we guarantee that the price you see advertised is the full price you pay.  And nothing more.

Our philosophy here at Great Escape Classic Car Hire is pretty simple.  We want you to enjoy what we enjoy, which is our classic cars.  We believe in honesty and fairness and hidden charges just don't fit into that approach.  We don't even charge card processing fees.  The only extra that appears anywhere on our price list is if you want to add additional drivers to your hire.  When you buy online the price you see already includes VAT and delivery where applicable.

When you choose to hire a classic car from us we make the package you get clear and transparent.  For each car we list the price, the location, the mileage allowance and the insurance excess.  We also include a Frequently Asked Questions page, full description of our Terms and Conditions (in normal, easy to read type size) and an explanation of our Insurance Excess and Insurance cover.  

"We charge one comprehensive price for each gift package and each car," explains Graham Eason of Great Escape.  "We think that is the fairest and most transparent way to work with customers.  

"It seems to have become standard practice online for retailers to advertise a low headline price and then bump up the cost through delivery charges, VAT and processing fees.  I don't see why our customers should pay extra for us to process their booking or book not knowing that the price excludes VAT.

"We not only advertise the full price you pay but we have also kept our prices the same for 24 continuous months.  So in real terms, the price now is cheaper than it's ever been."

Great Escape is the UK's largest and busiest classic car hire company with a fleet of 60 cars available to hire from 9 locations.  You can find out more by visiting http://www.greatescapecars.co.uk or call  01527 893733.

Christmas made easy for classic car fans (and their friends)

If you, or someone you know, loves classic cars then we may just created a soothing balm to your Christmas Gift Anxiety.  There are now four simple ways to put yourself (or, again, someone you love) in the driving seat of one of Great Escape's classic cars, which cover everything from a Morris Minor to an Aston Martin.
You no longer need to simply select a car and hire it for 24hrs, 48 hrs or longer.  While that option is still available, Great Escape Classic Car Hire has launched three other options.  Now you can buy a voucher for a particular price band of car - which gives the recipient access to any car up to and including that price band from any of Great Escape's 9 UK locations.  And they never need to know how much you spent.  Alternatively you can buy a gift voucher for a particular amount and leave them to choose how they spend it - they can use it to hire one car, two cars or top it up and hire a more expensive classic car.  It is completely flexible.
The final option is proving to be the most popular of Great Escape's Christmas gift ideas.  Through the company's new online shop you can choose from a range of classic car driving experiences, driving days and weekend packages.  Each one is fully explained on the site and can be bought online or by calling Great Escape six days a week on 01527 893733. Great Escape guarantees delivery by Christmas on all gifts purchased by Friday 21st December.  Buying driving experiences direct from Great Escape means that you avoid the middle man's mark up and get a much better value package as a result.
Great Escape Classic Car Hire gives you the largest choice of classic cars to hire from one source - the fleet includes over 60 cars available to hire from 9 UK locations including Devon, Cotswolds and Yorkshire.  Prices start at just £95 and are fully comprehensive - no hidden charges, no booking fees, no administration fees.  You just pay the price you see advertised.

Make your gifts more flexible this Christmas

Great Escape Classic Car Hire has extended its range of Christmas gift vouchers with the introduction of a range of Price Band vouchers.  The new products offer more choice and flexibility, particularly if you're not sure which car the recipient will want to drive. 

The Great Escape price list works on a series of price bands into which every car fits.  Now you can buy a voucher for each price band, which means the recipient can choose any car up to and including the price band you pay for.  And they never need to know how much you paid.

There are 11 different price bands ranging from £95 t0 £549 and all points inbetween.  Great Escape has a fleet of over 70 cars, which means that within each price band there are several different cars, usually of varying types.  The cars are also based at 9 different UK locations, so wherever you are or wherever you'd like to go, the chances are that we have a car nearby.  

Every Great Escape Classic Car Hire gift voucher is valid for 12 months and you can even choose the start date to maximise the available time.  They are very simple to use - just choose a date, check availability using our online calendar (which is updated instantly with new hires) and get in touch.

The classic car hire gift vouchers are backed by our transparent, comprehensive hire package - which means there are no hidden charges.  Every hire day includes 24 hours use, insurance for 1 driver and full UK breakdown cover.  Plus most of our cars have unlimited mileage allowances.

"Our Price Band vouchers give the recipient the flexibility to choose the car and date, so if you're not sure which car they want or when they want to go, they solve the problem," explains Graham Eason of Great Escape.  "Prices start at just £95 and every voucher is valid for 12 months."

Don't let them sock it to you this Christmas

If you're a man (or woman) of a certain age then you'll know that Christmas gifts all too often seem to be about just one thing - socks.  Or maybe if you're lucky, something knitted.
To be fair to any gift-givers reading this, once you hit a certain age it's not an easy task finding something they might actually want.  Hence the socks.
Or is it.  In a quiet corner of the internet Great Escape Classic Car Hire has been beavering away creating some grown up gifts that we think grown up men and women actually want.  No, we don't mean fancy cufflinks or paperweights in the shape of Jaguar E Types.  Instead we've created a range of classic car experiences and gift vouchers that are the stuff, we think, of dreams.  For the price of a second hand XBox you could be sitting behind the wheel of a Jaguar E Type for 24 hours.  Or swap that woolly jumper and for the same money drive a Mazda MX5.

Alongside our standard classic car hire service we also offer a range of classic car rallies and gift experiences.  These include The E Type story, which lets you drive an E Type, XJS and XKR back to back over a weekend as well as more sedate adventures like our Antiques Roadtrip.  Our classic car rallies are increasingly popular - for just £199 you can get behind the wheel of 5 different classic cars on a 100 mile loop of some of our favourite roads around our Yorkshire and Cotswolds sites.  This price includes insurance, fuel and even lunch.
Our Christmas gift packages are only available direct from us.  So you don't pay an activity provider's mark up.  It also means we aren't inundated with people so we can keep everything personal and friendly.  You also get genuine value - a place on one of our rallies costs roughly the same as a supercar day from one of the major activity providers.  But instead of a few minutes on a track in a Lamborghini you get 7 full hours behind the wheels of a range of classic cars.
So if you fancy swapping the socks for a day in an E Type or any one of our 70 classic hire cars, send this story to someone you know.  And tell them if they book by Christmas they'll get 10% off.  That'll sock it to them.
For more details on our range of Christmas gift experiences for men and women visit http://www.greatescapecars.co.uk and visit our Online Shop.  Or call 01527 893733.

One day, 5 classic cars. The perfect Christmas present?

It’s every schoolboy’s dream.  Standing on a wet and windy airfield somewhere near Derby waiting for 3 laps in a Lamborghini.  Such, according to a recent article on speedmonkey.co.uk, is the reality of a Drive the Dream supercar day.

I read that article with interest because I run a classic car hire company.  We don’t work with the big experience day providers because they take too big a slice of the income.  This leaves even less to provide customers with a good day out.  And that is what I think we do, for £199.

So here’s the flipside of those supercar days.  For roughly the same price as 3 laps in a Lambo Great Escape Classic Car Hire offers a full day out driving at least 5 classic cars on some of our favourite roads.  We are running 5 Great Escape classic car rallies in 2013 from our Yorkshire and Cotswolds sites and the format is simple and proven.  Each rally includes a selection of cars from our local fleet – usually E Types, Jensen, MG and Mk2 with maybe a DeLorean or Aston thrown in for good measure. 

Our main business at Great Escape is hiring classic cars for 24 hour periods.  But I devised the rally idea after realising that lots of customers don’t want to spend 24 hrs in one car – often an hour or two is enough to say ‘I did it.’  Providing the chance to drive several cars in one day adds a lot of variety to the experience without boredom.  Couple that with a specially chosen route on some great driving roads and you have a pre-planned day that means you just turn up, turn the key and drive off.

We allow no more than 16 people on each rally, with two people per car, in order to keep the day flowing smoothly and maximise time in the cars.  Each route is hand-picked by us to provide real variety and interest and covers at least 120 miles.  This means that everyone gets around 60 minutes driving each car – more than enough time to get to grips with each model.  We stop regularly for driver and car changeovers and refreshments.  The £199 price includes insurance, fuel, lunch and the help of our support crew who follow the cars – and sort out problems if they occur.

The rally idea originated with our corporate clients.  Since we started offering the same package to individual customers in 2011 it has been hugely popular.  The feedback is always extremely positive, with some claiming it’s the best driving experience day they’ve ever done.  

Great Escape Classic Car Hire rally days will always be fairly low key because we don’t want to sell them through activity providers.  If we did, the price would have to virtually double or we’d have to cut a lot of corners.  By selling direct to enthusiasts we can provide a unique and personal service that we think provides decent value for money.  Far better, I think, than 3 laps of a dreary airfield in a tired Lamborghini.

You can find out more about our rallies on our website at http://www.greatescapecars.co.uk or call 01527 893733.  Mention this blog and we’ll knock 10% off the £199 price.

Save £64 on Jaguar Mk2 hire until 26th November

Great Escape Classic Car Hire is continuing its 12 Gifts of Christmas special offers with great deals on Morris Minor and Jaguar Mk2.  Whether you're planning a wedding or looking for a special Christmas gift, these low price deals may be for you.  But hurry - they're only available until 26th November and then they're gone.

For Week 2 of our 12 Gifts of Christmas special offers we've knocked £64 off the price of hiring a Jaguar Mk2 - now just £165 - and £35 off the price of hiring a Morris Minor Convertible.  That's a nearly 30% saving on the normal hire price.  And you get the same all-in package - unlimited mileage, comprehensive insurance, full 24 hours use and nationwide breakdown cover.  We've cut the price but not the corners.

This special low price applies to all bookings and gift vouchers bought for these cars by 26th November.  To secure the low price just call  01527 893733.  You don't need to use the car by 26th November or even choose dates when you book - you can choose dates any time in the next 12 months and still receive this low price.

The latest 12 Gifts of Christmas special offer applies to Jaguar Mk2s and Morris Minors on the Cotswolds, Yorkshire and Devon fleets.  You can choose to buy one day at this price or multiple days - there's no limit.

"Christmas is a time of giving - and these are our best ever offers on these cars," explains Graham Eason of Great Escape.  "These cars are popular as self drive wedding cars, so whether you are looking to book a car for your big day or just a day out, hopefully these low prices will help you out."
