Moray is a great area to explore in a Caterham; quiet roads, head for the coast, the hills, distilleries, Loch Ness or Skye and the west. One day isn't enough. Pity you didn't go when ORH was in Perth tabelmabel (below) but it's not far to Moray and the A93 is great fun. The website is clear about location. I'm... More

How on earth has that ended up with a perth post code (the fact it.s not a perth phone code alerted me to the possibility of it not being local to... More

Don't be looking for this activity in Perth as it has now moved to a rural location near Elgin in the north of Scotland!! Boyd was extremely helpful in explaining the intricacies of the car and we set off on our day out in the open top car. Unfortunately the rain came on and the temperature dropped but the heater...

Right from the point of booking the car last year, Boyd was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout. Any questions we had, Boyd answered quickly and was happy to have a friendly chat on the phone or over email. Once in Scotland and upon passing his village a few days before the booking we called Boyd to see if he was... More

I had the great pleasure of hiring a Caterham from Boyd in October 2011. Boyd was kind and flexible enough to customise my pick up time and location to suit, and drove from Elgin to Aberdeen train station to meet me. Having grabbed a coffee, we sat down to finalise the paperwork before heading over to the car park, which... More

I hired out Boyd's Caterham 7 in june last year and felt i just had to let everyone out there know what a fantastic and unique experience it was.. All the more so as my son has severe autism and learning difficulties which makes it very hard to choose a suitable birthday treat or day out, we met Boyd at... More

We hired a Caterham from Boyd to spend a day out on our wedding anniversary in September and had a great time. Having never done anything like it before, the Caterham was really good fun for the day. Boyd created a route to give us the best value for our money and directed us to the best sights and stops... More

I've been hiring Caterhams from Open Road Hire since 2008 enjoying at least 1 hire a year. The cars are utterly superlative. Fast, agile and so much fun. They are also remarkably docile and comfortable too - I've travelled over 400miles in them over 2 days and at my destination just wanted to drive some more....! The previous Owner/Director Andrew...

Wedding conveyance for my blushing-bride-to-be arranged, I sat back…. But hang on it’s my day too the groom should have a nice car as well! Local wedding car options were firmly biased toward the female of the species… I want a sports car… something fast… something loud…something unusual…. something to make an impression and get everyone talking! The search led... More

These cars and the experience of being out in them for a day is truly fantastic. A group of 3 friends and I covered a route recommended by the company owner which provided an excellent blend of country roads, wide straights and interesting scenery - this utilised the cars (& the value of the hire) to its true potential.
