Car Sales and Hire
PRESTIGE AND CLASSIC CARS
Specialist prestige car sales, classic vehicles, sourcing and hire
Bernard Horsford Prestige & Classic Car Sales is a specialist automotive business operated by Dr Bernard Horsford Ltd. Based in Nottingham, we focus on carefully selected prestige cars, luxury vehicles, classic cars, modern classics, bespoke vehicle sourcing and limited specialist prestige car hire.
We work with clients who want more than a conventional used-car purchasing experience. Our services are designed for buyers who value specification, condition, comfort, provenance and long-term suitability and who expect clear, professional and straightforward communication.
Whether you are looking for a refined executive saloon, a luxury SUV, a well-specified grand tourer, an engaging modern classic or a particular vehicle that is difficult to find, we will help you consider the available options carefully.
Prestige and luxury cars for sale
Our prestige-car service focuses on desirable vehicles from established premium manufacturers. We consider the complete vehicle rather than concentrating solely on its manufacturer, age or headline price.
Relevant factors may include:
• Model and derivative;
• Engine and transmission;
• Factory specification;
• Interior quality and comfort;
• Mileage and maintenance history;
• Number of previous keepers;
• MOT and servicing records;
• General mechanical and cosmetic condition;
• Intended use; and
• Overall market value.
Our areas of interest include Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Jaguar, Lexus, Porsche, Land Rover, Range Rover and other premium marques, subject to stock and availability.
We are particularly interested in well-specified vehicles with desirable trim levels, including AMG Line, M Sport, S Line, Autobiography and comparable premium or performance-oriented derivatives.

Classic and Modern Classic Cars
Classic-car ownership is a personal decision. Some clients are attracted to a particular vehicle because of its styling, engineering, heritage or connection with an earlier period of their lives. Others want a distinctive vehicle for occasional use or are interested in cars with emerging collector appeal.
We assist clients looking for:
• Traditional classic and vintage cars;
• Classic saloons, coupés, convertibles and sports cars;
• Modern classics from the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s;
• Performance versions of established models;
• Unusual specifications and limited-production vehicles;
• Usable classics suitable for regular driving; and
• Carefully maintained vehicles intended for leisure or collection.
Where the appropriate vehicle is not already available, we can undertake a focused classic-car search based on the client’s budget, preferred model, intended use and expectations regarding maintenance.
Specialist Car Hire
Specialist prestige car hire
We provide limited access to selected executive and prestige vehicles for clients who require a higher level of comfort, presentation and specification than is commonly available through a standard rental fleet.
Potential uses include:
• Business travel;
• Important appointments;
• Special occasions;
• Short-term replacement transport;
• Medium-term vehicle requirements; and
• Experiencing a particular type of vehicle before considering ownership.
Availability, eligibility, insurance, deposits, mileage allowances and permitted use are governed by the applicable hire agreement.
Why Choose Bernard Horsford Car Sales?
A client-centred service
We begin by understanding what the client actually needs. A prestige badge alone does not make a vehicle suitable. Driving position, cabin space, comfort, journey type, running costs, maintenance expectations and the intended ownership period may all be equally important.
A structured approach
Our approach is analytical and evidence led. We compare available vehicles against an agreed brief and consider the available history, specification, condition and market context before making a recommendation.
Clear communication
We explain the strengths and limitations of the available options. Where information is incomplete or requires further investigation, this will be identified rather than concealed behind sales language.
Access beyond current stock
Clients are not restricted to vehicles immediately available through the business. Where appropriate, we can search dealerships, specialist businesses, auctions and private advertisements for a suitable vehicle.
