About
You just won't get more "Smiles per gallon" than when driving a Caterham 7. The iconic British sports cars for self drive hire enjoyment of the wonderful scenery and often deserted roads of the Highlands and Islands, Moray and Aberdeenshire. Great transport links via Inverness and Aberdeen airports as well as train. You'll grin till your jaw aches!!

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had the most fantastic weekend in Scotland in the Caterham car! We drove across from Elgin to Isle of Sky and bac. The car handled well and was in great condition. Nick was so helpful and friendly. We would highly recommend to others,

It was a pleasure, and we enjoyed every minute. We planned to have this trip in July, but at the last minute, we needed to cancel. CHC said we keep your credit until you can come, no problems. So we made it in September, with almost no rain. The route suggested was marvelous, and I enjoyed every mile. The suggested break at Five Arems was fabulous.
The car was perfect, so we did not need any technical support. it was ready as we came in, and we waited until we returned after 168 miles; now we need to find the time to make all NC500...

The day tour in the Caterham was the best thing we did on our tour of Scotland! Not only because of the car, but due to Nick and Neil's outstanding customer service!
We drove the suggested day tour, which was a great trip through the Cairngorms and past many distilleries.
When we had technical problems with the car, Nick and Neil came to our help immediately and provided us with another car to finish our day tour!

Neil went thru Caterham with us and it look in great condition. Went up to Lossie and along coast to Forres. Turned inland and went to Grantown then Aviemore before returning to Elgin via Glenlivet. Great varied scenery thru out and car drove superbly - as if glued to the road at times . Returned car with quick check out
Second time I have hired from Highland and would thoroughly recommend them for anyone that wants to see Scotland with a buzz

When it comes to extracting sheer pleasure from every single drop of fuel and every twist and turn you encounter, there's few things that can serve up more excitement than these marvellous bathtubs with wheels. These quintessentially British sports cars are the absolute antidote to boredom, perfect for traversing the magnificent landscapes of the Highlands. Brace yourself, for from the instant you lay eyes on this extraordinary machine, till the moment you reluctantly part ways with it, your face muscles will be locked in a perpetual state of euphoric delight that'll make your jaw ache with uncontrollable grinning!

We had an excellent experience for my husbands 65th birthday. The care and attention paid by Nick and Neil at Highland Caterham Hire was brilliant from the first contact through to the drop off of the car at the end of the hire time.
They were polite, friendly and really helpful even calling us during out of hours to solve a small issue we had, caused by my husbands big feet getting in and out of the car.
The car was in excellent condition and the explanation of all controls etc was fabulous. It was a fantastic fun car to drive and everything my husband had hoped for after years of wanting to buy a Caterham, even the rain on North Coast 500 didn't spoil the experience, its only water!!
Would definitely recommend this company for hire or Caterham's or any of the other vehicles they have without any hesitation.
We would definitely consider hiring from them again.

Really enjoyed my 2 day hire of the Caterham Supersport! Couldn’t fault the service from Nick & Neil who were very accommodating. Would be happy to use HCH in the future.

Had been talking about driving the NC500 for over 20 years. Couldn’t have chosen better cars to drive it in. Incredible service all round and would recommend this to everyone. We will be back!

There simply is no better way to experience the Highlands than in a Caterham. As an avid Petrol head and car enthusiast I have never driven anything before that stirs up the emotion a Caterham does. Coupled with the break taking roads and scenery, this makes for a perfect match.
Everything about my experience from hiring a Caterham here was flawless. From the booking, to explaining the features of the car and tapping in to Neil's deep knowledge and experience of the best routes and roads made for a truly unforgettable experience.
Being located in Elgin makes for perfect access to the rest of the Highlands. I set off from the garage and immediately made my way to the West coast via and through some of the most enchanting roads in the world.
An outstanding experience, albeit one I can see becoming addictive!

Hired a car for 3 days... it was an amazing driving experience! Stunning scenery to drive around... so glad we hired the car to see the Scottish Highlands!
As a larger passenger I was worried whether I'd fit and how comfortable I'd be... needn't have worried, plenty of space (even when we had the roof up)
Nick and Neil provide a fabulous service... we'll definitely book again when we're up Scotland

Are there short routes that take hours as opposed to full days?

Hi, yes there are some good shorter routes to be enjoyed however our minimum hire period is a day. I trust that helps?
Kind regards

Hi, is there a group tour for this or will this be like a solo type of ride? Thanks

Asyraf. It is normally an individual hire or a small group with existing friends etc. If you wished a guided tour of Scotland putting together for you and friends then we could accommodate this including itinerary and accommodation etc. I trust this helps? Kind regards Bopyd
