Getting Married On 18Th Aug - Anyone Local Got A Car For The Groom?

[ridgersIS300]

Well, it is fast approaching. I'm getting married a week on Saturday

We have a stunning 1924 Rolls Royce limo as a wedding car. It's one of only two still running in the country and featured in the tv series Poirot or something.

Anyhow, the Rolls will be taking the bride/father and bridesmaids to the church etc, but the groom, aka me, is getting a lift with the parents in there 2010 cee'd SW. Now, although a very lovely car in its class, I want to travel in something a bit more, well.... Something that stands out more. A guy across the road from me has a beautiful two-tone TVR T350. I was cheeky and asked if he fancied taking the groom to church (which is literally half a mile away), sadly though he will be away with his family that weekend (gutted).

So....... Is anyone local to me (Derby) and has something a little different, unique or something that will look good in ribbons and free on 18th aug to do me a little favour??? I can't offer any money for services however I will happily pay fuel money.

Failing that, anyone else got any other ideas? A hire car is out the question

Thanks in advance......

This is true, when I told my dad I was buying a Lexus he said "what do you want a massive thing like that for?" he thought all Lexus were LS400! Lol....

Lol they are both lovely cars in their own rights. Here's a quick pic of the Rolls...

I said to the missus that she could organise every part of the wedding accept for the wedding car, that was my job :-)
