The One and Only

At Great Escape Classic Car Hire we got the shock of our lives when the wedding couple we chauffeured for on Saturday 30th April apeared on TV the following Monday.

Claire and Chris Lawrenson featured on the BBC's The One Show in a feature about weddings to accompany coverage of THAT Royal Wedding. The couple chose to be chauffeur driven in one of Great Escape Classic Car Hire's white Morris Minor convertibles, which also appeared on the programme (albeit fleetingly).

The wedding in Herefordshire went very smoothly, the couple loved the car and the combination of the Morris and Russ, our chauffeur, were a faultless combination.

Great Escape Classic Car Hire has four Morris Minor convertibles for hire from its sites in Yorkshire, Worcestershire, Suffolk and Lincolnshire. The fleet includes three white Morris Minors with burgundy interiors and roofs. All cars are available to hire on a self drive or chauffeur hire basis for weddings and weekends.

Morris Minor on Antiques Road Trip

The Great Escape Classic Car Hire Morris Minor convertible based in the East Midlands is the star of BBC2 this week. It features in the second series of BBC2's popular Antiques Road Trip programme aired 31st January to 4th February 5.15pm to 6pm.
The Antiques Road Trip production team used the Morris for filming between May and August 2010. The car was chosen because of its quirky looks, high standard of quality and bright paintwork. The car performed (almost) fautlessly over several thousand miles in the BBC's service - the only hiccups were a faulty starter motor (fixed overnight) and damage inflicted by a bus.
Great Escape Classic Car Hire worked with the production team throughout the filming to help deliver and collect the car. We also had to a work to an inevitably constantly changing schedule, coordinating our regional sites in Yorkshire, Suffolk, Dorset and Worcestershire to provide the car for the production team.

Kids make their Great Escape

The Great Escape Classic Car Hire Morris Minor Convertible based in Yorkshire was recently chosen by a major high street brand to help promote its new range of childrens clothing.
The red Great Escape Morris Minor was specifically chosen because the colour works well on camera and the car has a fun and cheeky image, in keeping with the style of photography.

Great Escape Classic Car Hire worked with the supermarket chain's agency to provide the car at very short notice. We trailered the car to London, provided a driver throughout the day to support the photoshoot and ensured the vehicle was immaculate throughout the day.
Great Escape Classic Car Hire works with many major brands to provide cars for photoshoots, TV, video shoots and film productions. Our experience means we have learnt the small touches that enable film shoots with cars to run smoothly.
