worldofceri you're totally right. Buying that's like paying £50 for a Big Mac when you could get a Kobi beer fillet steak for the same money.

When I got married to the laptop wrecker we hired a 70's Silver Shadow in Dark blue to take the wife from her house to the hotel. Inevitably on the day the Shadow had broken down so they sent a Panther Lethario (or what ever it's called) instead.. There's a photo somewhere of me being forced to grudgingly stand in front of it while I got my photo taken. What POS.

Is it a shadow or has that Vauxhall got some really odd tide marks around the doors?

Thanks, but I feel I should declare that Mash made the point, I just illustrated it.

Yeah, but some arseholed geezer had it sprayed barley white so he can have some pissed up bride puke in it.

I wouldn't want to do this with my classic cars, honest.

No. It does not.

 

It looks like a bleeding wedding car is what it looks like.

For a pikey wedding.

 

There is no dignity left in this world.

I think a lot of people use these kit wedding cars as they have to as part of a package with the venue.

 

My wife and I got a great wedding deal last year but unfortunately it came with the Beauford at a cut price with no alternative. Since nobody would see her arrive in it as we would all be inside the place waiting, she didn't give a hoot. It got her there spot on although she said it was slow, draughty and didn't have a heater. In November. I think it somewhat qualified as shite, and I thought she was very dignified :-)

 

Pretty sure it was a Sherpa based affair. Glad I chose a 300c though.

That Rollers lovely, what's you problem with it? would you sooner see it sat in a barn unused?

 

I had to make do with a new Mercedes E Class when i got married due to a deal with the photographers, I know which one I'd sooner have traveled in.

I was married in a Bentley VI

 

Odd, most people just use the cars to get to the church, not for the actual ceremony. :wink:

Talking about weddings, how difficult/expensive would it be to convert this into an estate?

 

Minimum I guess it would need a Shadow rear seat and a few hundred square feet of mdf and carpet?

 

What a great vehicle for upsetting the locals on the school run and at the regulars at the polo!

I think that R-R needs its rear windows panelled in with MDF and some wobbly ‘MAN WITH VAN £20/HR 07917 123456’ stickers on the sides. ‘Yeah I’ll take your garden rubbish to the tip love! (As soon as i’ve finished this glaaaarrrssss of sherry)’

If you're gonna get married, don't do what my friends did and use a VW Transporter as a bridal car.

 

Can you guess what happened before the ceremony started? Go on, you can have three guesses.

That said, I'd still rather get to the registry office late in a clattery heap of filler scene bollocks than a Beauford.

 

I reckon my Amazon would do me right. It would need more power for the celebratory marriage burnout, mind. That way I could delay the ball and chain clamping for 10 minutes or so because no one could see for the clutch smoke.
