We hired the DS21 for a long weekend

We hired the DS21 for a long weekend. We had great communication beforehand and even had a choice of two locations to pick the car up from. The DS21 is rightly described as one of, if not the, most beautiful car ever made and it drew attention from all who saw it on the road. Don't drive it if you are shy! Robbie did a very informative hand over and even took us out for a few miles to show us the controls. I'm now looking at the next one from the collection to hire.

Perfect!

Robbie was fantastic - very accommodating and excellent service, and we had so much fun driving the spitfire. It was stunning! (as is Fifi the dog)

Exceptional Car

I hired the Jaguar E Type for our wedding and I couldn’t believe how much it complimented our day. Beautiful car, great service from Robbie and would highly recommend

Great all around experience

Robbie was fantastic. He was communicative and flexible despite our timings changing last minute both at pickup and drop off. His car collection is amazing and the E-type is well worth the hire - you won’t have driven something like it and it’s definitely a head-turner. On top of that, Robbie is a great guy. Would 100% recommend and will be renting again from him in the future

I cannot recommend this company and the experience they offer more! 5*s

Robbie is such a personable owner and made our experience extra special with his kindness and keen knowledge of his cars.

Thank you again for letting us use the Porsche 365, it was a beauty to look at and drive!

Unforgettable memories made

We rented the DAX Cobra from Robbie at RNG classics for a day out back in July this year.

I’m struggling to find the words to explain how remarkable this experience was. There are some days in your life which you will never ever forget and leave a permanent mark on your memory. If you are a car lover, the whole
experience with RNG made this day one of them.

Robbie was very helpful immediately from the start, getting us booked in quickly. contactability is one of his strong points, he is always available to talk things through over the phone or text.

Then there was the car. The car was exceptional. A truly beautiful example in great condition which ran well and provided endless fun for the day. Owning a nice car myself, I am a firm believer that these cars should be shared and it was great to drive this around and see the look of joy on people’s faces as we came through the countryside villages.

All in all a fantastic day out where we made memories which will last a lifetime.

What are we driving next Robbie?

We hired the classic mini for a day

We hired the classic mini for a day, it was an absolutely hoot. Mum, Dad, two teenagers in the back. I was a bit worried the boys would get bored, but they loved it. And so did I, happily transported back to my younger, mini owning days. It is totally unlike any modern driving experience, everyone smiles at you. It was the highlight of the summer holidays.

Great dealing with RNG - Stunning car

Great dealing with Robbie, the owner. He made the whole experience of renting his Citroen DS 21 a pleasure.

The car (Citroen DS 21) was a delight. Having use of the car for a long weekend fulfilled a life long desire.
Four of us spent the weekend motoring through Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. The delight was not constrained to the four of us. Admiring looks and clear joy at seeing this stunning machine on the road.

My wife arranged this as a surprise birthday present. Robbie entered into the spirit and provided loads of genuine reassurance.

Brilliant!

What a fabulous day! Robbie turned up early and the car was in immaculate condition - it looked stunning. Robbie was happy to accommodate everything we asked for and was very flexible on the day. I can highly recommend him and the car.

Porsche 356, vintage elegance for the day

We had a fantastic day renting the Porsche 356. Robbie couldn’t have been more helpful, welcoming and friendly. The car was phenomenal and it all felt very special having use of it for the day to celebrate a milestone birthday. We would highly recommend RNG Classics, the range of cars epitomise classic elegance and beauty.

Amazing Red Ford Mustang, Great Experience

We rented a red Ford Mustang from Robbie's incredible collection for music promotion for a track release. From beginning to end Robbie was accomodating and the communication was great. Plus the car was gorgeous and in perfect condition. All in all, what could have been a stressful experience for us, (because anyone knows who does production, knows how many moving parts to it there are) was made easy and relaxed. Grateful to you Robbie.

Wedding anniversary surprise

So here we go ...
It was our tenth wedding anniversary, and I wanted to do something to make the weekend really memorable. Early on I hit on the idea of hiring a classic car for the drive to our hotel, but had no idea whether this would be possible or how to make the logistics work. I contacted Rob about six months ahead of the date and he was fantastically helpful: we put together a plan whereby the hire car (a lovely little Triumph Spitfire) would 'appear' on our front drive on the morning of the getaway weekend, magically replacing our distinctly boring Audi. Said Audi would be driven to our hotel and left there, and we'd have a lovely day pottering along country lanes in the Spitfire.

On the day the whole plan worked beautifully. My wife's face when she saw what had 'happened' to our car was magnificent, and we had a great time driving the Spitfire to the hotel.

All through the process Rob was really, really helpful. He helped pick the car, arranged a clandestine test drive (so my wife didn't rumble the plan), and was on call on the day in case anything went awry with the car swap. Overall the whole experience was absolutely first class!

10/10 Wedding Car Hire

We hired the White Rolls Royce for our wedding day in June and it was the perfect touch to make us feel special on our way to the venue! Both the groom and I did separate rides over in the car and Robbie was so lovely, chatty and put all our nerves at ease. The process of booking to the day of was seamless and I'd recommend RNG Classics to anyone for a special event / occasion / wedding. Thanks Robbie + RNG team!

Great experience and great service

Great car, great experience and great service! Robbie drove directly the 365 speedster to our house and after the handover we were ready to go! Always been my dream to cruise on this car. Thanks Robbie!

Highly Recommend RNG Classics!

We had an incredible experience with RNG Classics!

I began planning a surprise experience for my Stepdad’s 70th birthday months ago, and Robbie was so helpful and understanding of what I was trying to pull off. He has always wanted to drive a Triumph Spitfire and the one in the collection is an absolute beauty!

Robbie couldn’t have been more responsive, lovely to deal with, and flexible - he went above and beyond to make it a special experience for my family, and his knowledge of the cars themselves was an added bonus.

My stepdad hasn’t stopped smiling - it’s been Robbie this and Robbie that since we returned the car and we will definitely see him again!

We were really appreciative of the service received, the level of professionalism mixed with personalism, and would highly recommend!
