| Guaranteed On-Time
|
We are the only classic limousine company to offer a Guaranteed On-Time Policy. Our chauffeurs leave our Newport Beach station with double the MapQuest estimated travel time, plus an additional 15 minutes, just to get to the first pickup location! (Please see our company policy for details).
Being on time to special events, such as weddings, anniversaries and birthdays is incredibly important. Remember, the number one complaint concerning limousine companies is that they are late!

| Price Match
|
Classic Limos is the only vintage limousine company to offer a Price Match Guarantee Policy based on Vehicle Value Comparsion.
We will match any all inclusive price from another classic limousine company under the following conditions:
- The competitor must have the proper limousine license & insurance on the classic vehicle we are matching.
- The "high book value" of the competitor's classic limousine must be within 10% of the high book value of our classic limousine. For example, if our high book value is $100,000 then the competior's high book value must be at least $90,000. These high book values are based on double the high book price as contained in either The Gold Book or The NADA Classic Car Guide (using whichever one is higher). We double the stated values, because most owners of vintage and classic cars feel their vehicle is worth twice the current "book value". In order to be more than fair, we will asume that everyone's classic car for hire is in "showroom condition" (unless we have already seen the car in question). In the event we are asked to price match one of our vehicles to a vehicle we know to be in substantially inferior condition, then our price match policy does apply.
- The quoted time must be for 2 or more hours (not including round trip travel time).
- The competitor must be within 75 miles of Newport Beach, California.
A copy of the all inclusive price quote must be provided. This price quote must include all charges including chauffeur fee, travel charges, refueling charges (if applicable) plus all "hidden" charges.

`1964 Austin Princess (Competitor) .... $27,900 ... Not a Rolls - "Low Book" is $3,850
`1964 Austin Princess (Competitor) .... $27,900 ... Not a Rolls - "Low Book" is $3,850
`1965 Rolls Royce (Classic Limos) ... $137,800
Average "High Book Value" Per Vehicle:
Competitors ........ $28,817
Classic Limos ..... $94,140
Even though most of our vehicles have "high book values" 3-6 times greater than most of our competitor's cars, you'll find our prices to be very competitive. If you divide the booking price by the "high book value" of our vehicles, and use the same approach with our competitor's quotes, you will quickly conclude that Classic Limos offers the best deals in Southern California.
Imagine looking at two wedding dresses. One is worth $1,000 and costs $1,000. It's a good looking dress. The other one is worth $3,000, but you can buy it for only $1,300. More important, it's a great looking dress. Which one is the better deal? Which one would you buy?
* These four vehicles are listed as "True Classics" by the Classic Car Club of America. They have defined a "Classic Car" as ... a fine or distinctive automobile, either American or foreign built, produced between 1925 and 1948, high-priced when new and built in limited quantities." This explains why Packard Juniors don't qualify (since they accounted for roughly 88-94% of Packard's production, after they were introduced in 1935.
