Specialist Vehicle Rental is incredibly proud to mark our 17th anniversary! For seventeen years, we have proudly served the nation with adapted, wheelchair accessible, and dual control specialist vehicles — and none of it would have been possible without the loyalty and trust of our wonderful customers.
Our dedicated team continues to grow alongside our ever-expanding fleet, constantly embracing the latest advancements in the mobility vehicle industry. One thing, however, has never changed: our unwavering commitment to exceptional customer service and our mission to support independence through accessible vehicle mobility.
As we reflect on this milestone, we are proud to share a landmark achievement that defines this past year.
Partnership with Maple Parking at Heathrow, Manchester & Gatwick Airports
We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with Maple Parking at three of the UK’s busiest airports — Heathrow, Manchester, and Gatwick.
This partnership means accessible, adapted vehicle hire is now available directly at major UK airport locations, making travel significantly more straightforward for disabled drivers and their passengers. We are proud to be among the very first companies in the UK to achieve this — a genuine milestone for the accessible travel sector.
This was made possible with the invaluable support of Disabled Motoring UK (DMUK), whose guidance and advocacy were instrumental in bringing this vision to life.
A Message from Our CEO
“Seventeen years. From a single member of staff and a five-vehicle fleet, we have grown into a team of over 30 people delivering more than 300 specially adapted vehicles right across the UK.
This year, our partnership with Maple Parking at Heathrow, Manchester, and Gatwick stands out as a genuine landmark for accessible travel in this country. With the support of DMUK, we have helped make something truly special a reality — ensuring that disabled drivers and passengers can access properly adapted vehicles at some of the UK’s most important travel hubs.
None of this would be possible without our incredible team and loyal customers. You are the reason we keep pushing forward — thank you.”
The Future
Specialist Vehicle Rental remains firmly focused on the road ahead — growing our fleet, expanding our reach, and investing in the adaptations that make the biggest difference to our customers’ lives.
Seventeen years in, the passion and purpose that started this company are stronger than ever. A heartfelt thank you to every one of our customers, past and present. Here’s to many more years of making mobility accessible for all.
Thank you — from all of us at Specialist Vehicle Rental.
