Luxury prom hire for a safe, stylish arrival
Prom night is about the arrival, the photographs and the evening, and it needs planning, because students, parents, busy venues and evening timings all meet in one night. MCH gives you a chauffeur-led prom car hire Manchester families can follow, so we agree the collection, the journey and the arrival before the day.
Choose a standard Mercedes V-Class, a part-custom V-Class with starlight features, or a fully custom prom vehicle, and then we plan the pickup, the venue arrival and the photo time into the hours you book.



Prom arrival planning, step by step

Can I book a Mercedes V-Class for prom?
Yes. A Mercedes V-Class is available as a standard executive option, a part-custom starlight option or a fully custom vehicle, so the choice depends on the date, the area and availability.
Do you offer Landjet prom hire in Manchester?
We can arrange Landjet-style, JetClass and AC13-style fully custom V-Class vehicles through our trusted network, subject to availability, and we confirm the interior features and the exact vehicle before you book.
Can parents book on behalf of students?
Yes. Where passengers are under 18, a parent, guardian or responsible adult should arrange the booking, and then we confirm the passenger numbers, the collection details and the venue information before travel.
Can we stop for photos before the prom?
Usually, yes, because photo time can sit within the booked hours. If you want several photo stops, a longer hire period may be needed.
Are custom vehicle features guaranteed?
No. Features depend on the exact vehicle available, and the photographs show examples of each style. MCH confirms the vehicle, the features and the price before it accepts the booking.
How many students can travel?
A standard V-Class takes up to six passengers. Seating in a custom V-Class depends on its interior, so tell us your numbers, and then we recommend the right vehicle, or more than one for a larger group.
How early should I book?
As early as you can, because custom vehicles have limited availability in prom season and must be confirmed early. Send the date, the pickup area and the venue, and we confirm availability in writing.
Which areas do you cover for prom hire?
Manchester, Greater Manchester and Cheshire, including Trafford, Stockport, Salford, Bolton, Bury, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Knutsford and Hale. Prom hire is best suited to nearby residential areas, so a longer hire period may be needed for somewhere further away.
How do I pay, and what if plans change?
You save your card securely through Stripe when you request the booking, and MCH usually charges it about 24 hours before the night, or earlier where a booking needs it. Because MCH reserves a chauffeur and vehicle once payment is taken, refunds are not available after that point, and MCH will tell you in advance if a booking needs longer notice.
