MG A (1959)
A British roadster from the golden age of open-top touring, the MG A's flowing lines and low stance make it a favourite for engagement shoots and old-port arrivals. Produced from 1955 to 1962, it is a genuine period model, not a replica.

Prestigo · Chauffeur · Saint‑TropezPrestigo Chauffeur arranges chauffeur-driven vintage car hire across the French Riviera — Saint-Tropez, Nice, Cannes and Monaco — for weddings, photoshoots and special occasions. Four period classics anchor the collection — a 1959 MG A, a Porsche 356 Speedster and two Ford Mustangs, a 1965 and a 1966 — available two ways: with a professional chauffeur, so you and your guests simply step in and enjoy the moment, or self-drive, to take the wheel of the classic yourself. Pricing is quoted on request, to the car, the date, the format and the itinerary.

Ford Mustang 1966
These cars are made for arrivals that photograph beautifully. A Speedster pulling up to a Ramatuelle vineyard ceremony, an MG A threading the old port for an engagement shoot, a Mustang idling on the Place des Lices for a fashion editorial — the chauffeur handles the timing and the route while the couple, the crew or the guest of honour stay camera-ready. Prestigo Chauffeur coordinates ceremony arrivals, photo tours between locations and reception departures across the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
Coverage runs across the whole French Riviera — Saint-Tropez and the Gulf (Gassin, Ramatuelle, Sainte-Maxime), plus Cannes, Monaco and Nice on request. The vintage fleet is sourced through trusted partner collectors, so every car is a genuine, well-maintained period model rather than a replica. Demand concentrates in the May-to-September wedding and production season, when dates book out early; Prestigo Chauffeur recommends securing the car and the itinerary well in advance. "A vintage car is the one detail guests photograph the most — my job is to make sure it arrives on time, spotless, and drives away without a single hitch," says Anis S, founder of Prestigo Chauffeur.

Prestigo · Chauffeur · Saint‑TropezWhich vintage cars can you hire in Saint-Tropez?
✦
Porsche 356 Speedster
The car that built the Porsche legend. Low, minimalist and unmistakably elegant, the 356 Speedster (built 1954–1959) is the signature choice for a luxury wedding arrival or a high-end fashion editorial on the Riviera.
Ford Mustang (1965)
The original pony car and one of the most recognisable classics ever built. The first-generation Mustang (1964½–1966) is a timeless choice for weddings and elegant arrivals — instantly iconic yet robust enough for a full day of shooting.
Ford Mustang (1966)
A second first-generation Mustang alongside the 1965 — perfect for a matching pair at a wedding, a two-car shoot, or simply the classic '60s Mustang silhouette in a different finish. The same instantly recognisable American icon, equally at ease on camera.
When do clients book a chauffeur-driven vintage car?
✦
Weddings & ceremonies
The bride's arrival, the couple's departure and the photo session between venues. The chauffeur plans timing around the ceremony so the car is ready at each key moment across the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
Photoshoots & film productions
Fashion editorials, brand campaigns, music videos and features regularly use Saint-Tropez as a backdrop. A period car with a discreet professional driver adds authenticity without the logistics of a self-drive rental.
Anniversaries & grand arrivals
Milestone birthdays, proposals and gala entrances where the car is part of the statement. Collect from your villa, hotel or yacht and arrive in style.
Do you provide vintage cars in Nice, Cannes and Monaco?
✦
Saint-Tropez & the Gulf
The home base: weddings and shoots in Saint-Tropez, Gassin, Ramatuelle and Sainte-Maxime, with the old port, Place des Lices and Pampelonne on the doorstep.
Cannes & Antibes
Classic-car arrivals for Cannes weddings, Film Festival events and Cap d'Antibes villas — the Croisette makes an unmistakable backdrop for a period car.
Monaco & Nice
Ceremonies and shoots in Monaco and along the Baie des Anges in Nice. The car and chauffeur reposition along the coast, so a single booking can span several Riviera locations.
Chauffeur-driven or self-drive — which option?
✦
With a chauffeur
A professional takes the wheel — the choice for weddings, arrivals and shoots where you want to stay camera-ready. No parking, no stress, timing handled for you along the coast.
Self-drive hire
Prefer to drive the classic yourself? Available to licensed drivers with a security deposit and insurance in place — ideal for a scenic day on the Riviera roads. Conditions confirmed in your quote.
Genuine, maintained cars
Either way, each vehicle is a real, well-maintained period model sourced through trusted partner collectors — never invented, never a replica passed off as original.
Prestigo · Chauffeur · Saint‑TropezFrequently asked questions
Vintage car hire is priced on request — each booking is quoted to the specific car, date and itinerary, because a two-hour wedding arrival and a full-day production differ enormously. Chauffeur-driven hire includes the driver; self-drive hire is arranged with a security deposit and insurance. Share your date and plan on WhatsApp for a fixed quote, and see our wedding chauffeur service if you also need guest transport.
Four period classics: a 1959 MG A, a Porsche 356 Speedster and two Ford Mustangs — a 1965 and a 1966. All are genuine period cars sourced through partner collectors. If you have a specific model in mind for a shoot, ask — additional cars can sometimes be sourced on request.
Both options are available. Most clients choose chauffeur-driven — a professional takes the wheel for weddings, arrivals and shoots. You can also hire the car self-drive and drive the classic yourself, subject to a valid licence, a security deposit and insurance. Tell us which you prefer and Prestigo Chauffeur quotes accordingly.
