Kippford Classic Car Hire is a Dalbeattie, Scotland-based specialist offering authentic self-drive and chauffeured experiences in two lovingly maintained vintage vehicles. Featured on The Adventure Collective, the company provides the 1969 Triumph Herald Convertible in Wedgwood blue and Snowdrop, a 1961 Morris Minor with original burgundy leather interior and semaphore indicators. Both cars are prepared for modern use while retaining period detail: vehicles include contemporary safety features to ensure secure, enjoyable drives.
Bookings accommodate self-drive adventures and chauffeur services for local scenic outings, events, and photography sessions.
