Memorable Night Out

Carl, I would just like to thank you for providing an excellent service on Friday night. The driver, Gary, was extremely courteous, accommodating and patient with what amounted to a very noisy and excited group of girls. They spoke very highly of him on their return. Consequently, I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending your company to others. Thank you for making their night memorable.

Wedding Day Perfection

L.A. Stretch, I just wanted to say thank you for the hire of your wonderful limo for my wedding (17/4/03). Your driver turned up early, was charming and got me to the registry office on time. I am so pleased you persuaded me to hire the Bentley as it was a sensation and by far the best car for the job.
