To suprise my partner on our wedding day I would love to hire a TVR for him to drive to the church (3 miles) as he loves them ALL.

No prestige hire firms have one locally.

Any ideas

These guys hire out TVR's and have a good reputation, but they are down in the SW....so might not be feasible.. http://www.southwestsportscars.co.uk

Good luck!

Does he have to drive it why dont you try depending on where you are a regional TVR owners club.
As a member of Herts & Beds we have done a couple of convoys taking groom and any others to the church from memory we had 16 at the last one and was a huge surprise when we all turned up outside the grooms house and the best part we all did it for free!!

Have a look on the TVRCC page here (I think it's visible to non-members) http://www.tvr-car-club.co.uk/your_region.asp and contact your local RO (Rich Abbott I guess) and see if some of the guys in that region will help out, you might even get a few prepared to come along as wedding cars as they did in Herts.

V8GRF is exactly on the money. You needn't worry about it...contact the local TVR car club and within a day or two you'll have more than enough TVRs to take the whole family in convoy! If I were anywhere near I'd throw in the first hat. Shame.

I hope it all works out for you all.

And I give you.... http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

You're gonna love this.... apparently the turnout was fantastic and the day was one to remember. This is how it should be with TVR owners and wedding days!

Sadie,

I hope the local guys can help you.

I was part of the team at Richard and Sarah's wedding - see the link above.
It was great fun and Richard was really surprised when we all arrived to pick him up.

Fortunately they embraced their wedding being taken over, as you can see from the photos.

Best of luck, I hope you get a positive response.

Rich here from North Yorks TVRCC

Classic hire
Uk drive in style - both have TVRs in the Leeds area.

If a driven fleet of wedding cars for the bride, groom and bridesmaids is something youd consider then we at TVRCC may well help.

Hi Rich!

I really would love to try and do the fleet thing, it'd be so unique! Thanks for any help you can give. I have emailed the company you mentioned but they reply saying they no longer exist!

Not sure how easy it would be for you to help me, our wedding is on a friday and I guess people have jobs!

What do you think
