; do you think I could use my supercharged '40 next year (second time round) or should I use my Shadow?.....nah! I'll take the Jag lol!Do like that black '40 Mr H
Lovely Series 1 JS68! why so shy? haven't heard a lot from you, more pics please! 500 miles in how many yrs? that would be like having Sasha Alexander lying next to you and deciding you need to go to sleep lol!
Thank you Carsie,
tis a lovely tool. I took the Groom and best man to Portsmouth Registry office in that and my wife took the Bride and maids in the red XJR, on the way back to Hayling the Groom wanted to drive his new bride in the 300, quite a sight the two of us charging along the A27 all ribboned up, at high velocity!!!!!
Supercharged 40 sounds interesting, any info??? i was thinking of dropping a straight 6 sc into my 77 coupe!!

My dad mentioned this thread to me so I thought I should throw some photos up. We got married in July and the cars were a big part of the day (well for me at least!)
Due to a lifelong connection to TVR, it was only right that I should have one involved in the big day. I was hoping to use something from the classic era of the marque (Vixen/Griff - wishful thinking!/M) but a lovely '98 Chim 500 did a fantastic job of getting myself and my best man to the venue.
The bridesmaids had the honour of riding in my dad's much loved '67 ID19. This has been one of the longest standing cars in the family fleet and made a perfect wedding car.
Finally my wife and my father-in-law carried on with the '67-theme with a lovely Jaguar 420. Not a bad wedding convoy!

Ive seen a stretched Lincoln limo a few times locally, its rough, the vinyl roof is peeling and bubbling, the bodywork has more ripples than Cadbury's, i hope the wedding photo's dont get blown up too much.
The VW camper is gaining popularity too but for true class....
Pity this is a 2 door...

We used my Dads Xk 140 an AM Vanquish and a friends Bentley GTC.
Shame we cant get married again as it was awesome day.
There are some other pictures on the Classic car thread.
Happily married - for a week and a day now ;hehe:

I am sure I sold the owner of the house in the bottom picture 2 hardwood columns for the entrance hall.

My fiance has said (since about the age of 10-11) that when she gets married, she was going to the church in her mum and dads Austin A35. It has been off the road and on blocks for about 15years. They have owned it for about 40 years.
At Christmas when I asked her to marry me, her dad almost had a heart attack, not because I asked her, but because he actually has to get the Austin going!
So we WILL be having the Austin A35 as our wedding car. I will take along the Lomax too.
Best of luck! - we said the same re our A35 when we got engaged at Christmas (my intention then was to get married in 2016 not in less than 3 weeks time!) other circumstances came into play and so it's not meant to be. There was always a lot to do but we still gave it a good go!

Looking forward to seeing what the official photographer got! I think we had 3 or 4 professional photographers there, as well as "official one" so we should have a good selection to choose from!!
