Renting out your classic car can be about more than just driving. With DRIVESHARE, you can offer your vehicle for special events, photoshoots, and even chauffeured experiences where you or a hired driver take the wheel. Whether it’s for a wedding, an advertising shoot, or simply making an event more memorable, renting your car for non-driving purposes or with a chauffeur is a great way to get involved in these unique opportunities.
Event Rentals: Your Car as the Centerpiece
Classic cars are often more than just a mode of transportation – they’re part of the experience. Event rentals let your car become the centerpiece of weddings, film shoots, or marketing campaigns. When someone books your car for an event, it’s usually for display purposes. The owner is responsible for delivering the car to the event location, but no one other than the owner will drive it.
Listing your car for events is easy with DRIVESHARE. You can choose to make it available only for event use, giving you control over how your car is used. Whether it’s a high-profile advertising shoot or a low-key wedding, your car gets to be in the spotlight while you maintain control over its use.
Judson, a DRIVESHARE owner, shared his experience: "This year has truly been a breakout year for our vehicles. We advertise our vehicles several different ways but DRIVESHARE has been the single most productive in the last year. We have been with DRIVESHARE for many years now and the momentum has culminated in a stellar year for us. We expect even more success going forward!”
Chauffeured Rentals: Let Someone Else Enjoy the Ride
If you’re open to being more involved, offering chauffeured services is another option. This means the renter enjoys your car, but you or a hired chauffeur does the driving. Chauffeured rentals are especially popular for weddings, proms, and other special occasions where people want to make a grand entrance.
Many DRIVESHARE owners enjoy offering chauffeur services, often dressing up to be part of the event. It’s not just about driving; it’s about levelling up someone’s special day. You can set your own rates and consider the time involved when planning a chauffeured service.
One of our UK owners, Josh, had a positive experience chauffeuring for an event: “It was my first event and I really enjoyed it! Was nice to see the car being used in photography and videography. The time flew by, and it was local in London for me, so a good experience.”
How to List Your Car for Events or Chauffeuring
It’s simple to offer your car for events or chauffeured rentals. On your vehicle’s listing, you can select whether it’s available for driving, event-only use, or chauffeured service. You’ll also see a suggested price for chauffeuring services, which you can adjust based on your availability and the needs of the renter. If you want someone else to drive the car as a chauffeur, they’ll need to become a DRIVESHARE-verified driver.
As David, another UK owner, put it: “This entire booking process to the actual event went extremely smoothly. The client was highly professional, provided clear communication, and was a pleasure to deal with. I would welcome the opportunity of working with this client again on any future events. 5 stars!”
