Ford, Mustang Coupe 1966, Green | White
This is Millie, our 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe.  She was actually born in November 1965, in New Jersey, USA. But she wasn't christened until January the 1st 1966.
 
She was with her first owner from 1966 right up until 2018 when she was shipped to the New Forest.
 
She is almost completely original, with the outside and inside still the exact same colours she left the factory with. The rare Ivy Green paintwork really makes her very unique and extra special for any occasion. She's powered by her original 225hp 289 4.7 litre V8, linked to a 3 speed 'Cruise-o-matic' gearbox making her a joy to drive and as smooth as silk for her passengers. Her powered brakes bringing her nicely to a stop when needed. Her bright and spacious Ivy Gold interior can seat three passengers with seatbelts plus the driver and is perfect for any photo opportunities.
 
My wife Louise and I have always dreamt of owning a classic American car and were fortunate enough to be able to buy Millie in late 2019. She came to us from a local owner who'd restored her to the amazing condition she is in today. We have added only a couple of touches by changing her wheels to some polished retro torque thrust 15” alloys with modern tyres. We also added a stainless steel exhaust so she really sings.
 
This is a muscle car for both the Bride and Groom. She truly is a Beauty and a Beast.

Booked the car as a surprise grooms arrival for my husband to be. Needless to say the car exceeded my expectations! Owners were amazing, great communication during booking and my husband said the driver was lovely and he had an amazing time! He also said the car looked amazing and was very well kept. Thank you so much for making our wedding so special I can’t wait to send you pictures once we get them back. A million times thank you

I booked this car for my Husband on the Wedding morning and was on time and great service. I got an email to confirm pick up times and the communication was great. The car quality was again what you see in pictures. Would recommend to book.

I used this service to surprise my husband on our wedding day and I really cannot recommend them enough. Contact with Louise and Mark was excellent prior to the day and they accommodated a slight change in timing a few weeks in advance of the event without any issue. My husband absolutely loved his drive in the car said Mark was incredibly friendly and easy to chat to and that the car was amazing. I was really impressed that Mark even stayed at the venue until after our ceremony so that I could meet him and that we could have a picture taken with the car as a married couple. This was a really nice extra touch that I was not expecting. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a car for a special event

I booked this car as my wedding car and I must say Millie is an absolute beauty of a car and looks better than the pictures. Louise and Mark were very helpful. Mark turned up all dressed up and ten minutes early, which for an anxious bride, helped ease my mind. He was also very chatty and comforting throughout. Being driven in Millie was a dream! I would totally recommend!

I just wanted to send a little note to say THANK YOU!!! Mark was fantastic and the car was just beautiful. Mark arrived early and was relaxed and fantastic with my son. We arrived on time and Mark was a true gent, helping me in and out of the car. We loved the car and it really made our day so special. I would recommend you to anyone and everyone! The service we have received was incredible. Thank you for making our day so special
