Treat Mum like a Queen at Great British Car Journey on Mothers’ Day

It’s all about mums right now on Mother’s Day.

The popular classic car visitor attraction is rolling out the red carpet and putting up the bunting for mums everywhere in celebration of Mothers’ Day

From the daily school run, ferrying to after school clubs and pick-ups from friends’ houses, mums behind the wheel have played a vital role in all our childhoods.

To ensure they get the recognition they deserve, Ambergate-based Great British Car Journey has created a very royal driving experience complete with red carpet, a glass of fizz and afternoon tea.

Mums can enjoy a chauffeur driven ride in either a Daimler V8 Long wheelbase Limo, the very same model the Queen used between 2001 – 2007 or a 1988 Daimler DS420 Limousine, the last car ever built of this model was presented to the Queen.

During the 10-minute chauffeur driven experience, mum will be treated to a glass of fizz in car and a cream tea in the café before enjoying the trip down memory lane through the Great British Car Journey.

The very special chauffeured driving experience is the brainwave of Great British Car Journey founder Richard Usher, who said: “I have some great memories of my mum driving my brother and me in her Mini Cooper. She was a great driver; far better than my father if the truth be told!

“I think it’s fair to say that mums do a lot of the ferrying around where children are concerned. This Mother’s Day I wanted to give them a break and offer something different and I think a drive in a luxury classic car without squabbling children on the back seat absolutely fits the bill.” It’s the perfect Mother’s Day gift.”

The special chauffeur-driven Mother’s Day Drive Mum’s Car experience costs just £35.

Mum can also take to the wheel herself and drive more than 30 other classic British cars, including the original Mini, on a private route at Great British Car Journey in Ambergate.

All drives include entrance to the Great British Car Journey classic car visitor attraction.
