We hired the Bentley Mulsanne for our wedding in September 2024. I highly reccomend Devon Classic Hire. Gary was very prompt responding when making the booking and great at answering all our questions. Maggie was our driver for the day and she went the extra mile to ensure that we had a fantastic experience. We were really happy with the service provided, thank you. More...

Absolutely amazing from start to finish. We made a late booking with Gary, with just one weeks notice. Gary put my mind at ease as soon as he replied to my first email, with several more to follow. We booked the Bentley and our journey was from Newquay to Liskeard. Gary turned up early, before the bride was ready and waited patiently. He and the car looked immaculate, Gary was well dressed and professional. He put the bride at ease and assisted us into the car. His driving was exceptional and his conversation was very interesting and informative. He took every care to make the journey special. he assisted with some photos and allowed us to take several photo's along side the car. Exceptional service, highly recommended and reasonably priced.

We hired Barker for our wedding day and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to end with Gary. Brilliant communication throughout and totally flexible and happy to accommodate. Gary turned up bang on time and waited for the ceremony to end before taking us around in the car again. The car itself was gorgeous and striking, and Gary himself was very dapper! Thanks so much Gary for your effort and timeliness on the day. More...

We hired the beautiful car 'Barker' for our wedding and it was truly one of the highlights of the day, travelling from our wedding ceremony to the reception in style with passers-by waving and cheering and Gary honking the old fashioned horn. The car was immaculate and Gary was such a lovely chauffeur - he turned up early, was very patient and took some extra photos for us. We highly recommend!! More...

Gary was absolutely lovely and very helpful in accommodating our wedding plans. Barker was a great car to ride in that survived the Cornish lanes! Good value for money and very clear terms set out from the start. Highly recommend this service to anyone planning their wedding in Cornwall/ Devon. More...

I hired Gary’s gorgeous vintage Rover Barker for my wedding on 8th September. From the first communication of the booking right up until the day, Gary was absolutely amazing and made the whole process incredibly smooth and enjoyable. The booking was easy and communication on email was seamless. Gary was helpful, organised and made me feel like everything was being taken care of with the car. Barker arrived on time, beautifully clean and with amazing ribbon, flower and hamper decorations, all coordinated by Gary. Gary was incredibly polite, helpful and well dressed on the day, and made the whole experience really special. I want to say a huge thank you to Gary for his excellent service and his wonderful car Barker. I would highly recommend this to anyone. More...
