Some people have contacted us after hearing the news, but there are still quite a few who have not been in touch, including some who are getting married next month.
“Some of the people who have got in touch have said they don’t want their deposit back, but we want to pay people as soon as possible. “We have had a number of people contact us offering us wedding cars as replacements as well. People have been so kind.”
Anyone who has booked cars with the firm is asked to call 07885 706549 or 07850 268054.
