Keep Your Classic Sports Car Pristine in the UK Weather: Maintenance Tips

At Sports Car Hire, we know the sheer joy that comes with cruising in a classic sports car. To ensure that your experience remains unspoilt, we're here to share some quintessential maintenance tips to keep your treasured vehicle in top-notch condition amidst the UK's unpredictable weather.

Regular Cleaning

It's paramount to keep your sports car clean from the grime and salt that British roads can throw at it. An extensive wash every fortnight, along with a wax, can protect the paintwork. Remember, even our fleet of Aston Martins, Ferraris, and Lamborghinis need this loving care!

Undercarriage Care

The undercarriage is often neglected, yet road salt can be a real nemesis. A meticulous undercarriage cleanse is vital, particularly for our self-drive classics like the iconic Porsche 911 or the timeless Jaguar E-Type.

Moisture Control

UK's dampness can wreak havoc on your vehicle's interior. Keep a dehumidifier handy, a practice we apply to our premium Rolls Royce and Bentley interiors to preserve their opulent charm.

Regular Servicing

Consistent servicing from reputable mechanics is crucial. Whether it's the Mercedes S Class or the robust G Wagon, we ensure every vehicle in our fleet is serviced to perfection.

Our Expansive Fleet

Our luxury vehicle fleet extends beyond sports cars, offering the epitome of elegance with Rolls Royce, Bentley, and an array of limousines including the stately American Lincoln Town Car and the imposing Hummer stretch limousines. The V-Class and Lexus are favourites for corporate events, while the Maybach and the sleek Jaguar add a touch of grandeur to any special occasion.
