The Storytellers Behind the Wheels

Vintage Ride was born out of a simple conversation between three close friends — Harsha, Nalinda, and Nirash — who share a deep, unbreakable obsession with classic vehicles and the timeless stories they carry.

As proud owners of some of history's greatest automotive icons — including the Morris Mini, Volkswagen Beetle, Land Rover Series II & III, and the Mitsubishi Safari Jeep — we have spent years getting our hands dirty. We've dedicated countless days and nights to preserving, restoring, and maintaining these beautiful mechanical machines.

Let's be honest — owning and maintaining vintage vehicles is expensive, unpredictable, and requires absolute dedication. But the sheer joy they bring, the nostalgia they evoke, and the smiles we see every time an engine roars to life make every single bit of effort worthwhile.

One afternoon, our idea became clear: Why keep this magic to ourselves? Why not share this raw, nostalgic experience with fellow travelers?

Through Vintage Ride, we invite you to step into a living time machine and experience the unfiltered romance of the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. It's about the distinct, satisfying sound of a classic air-cooled engine, the authentic scent of gasoline, the warm southern ocean breeze in your hair, and that unmistakable feeling of slowing down and traveling back in time.

Our goal is never to just provide a ride from point A to point B. We are here to create unforgettable moments, capture beautiful memories, and allow you to explore the true, authentic beauty of Sri Lanka in a completely unique, retro way.
