A bit of a different post today… today is a celebration 🎉

30 years ago today, the main man himself — Oor Hugh — put his very first taxi on the road.

Fast forward 30 years and not only have there been many more cars on the road since, but now he’s passing the reins down to his son, James.

Three generations of Cowans.
30 years of service.
And many more still to come.

We marked the occasion with a lovely family meal — and a beautiful cake from the one and only Me’s Cafe, Coylton 👏🎂

(PS: Matthew was absolutely delighted to attend… but after eating his body weight in Haggis Bon Bons and Chicken Tempura, the food coma hit hard and a wee nap was very much required 😴🤣)

Happy 30 year anniversary to Cowans Of Ayr 🚖

And a massive thank you to all the loyal customers over the years — without you, none of this would have been possible.

Here’s to the next chapter ❤️

James’ wife has her own academy. Is there anything this pair don’t do?!

If you or someone you know would be interested, please message the academy page for more information
