Options for a luxury car to add to the corporate arm of a wedding hire company....


http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1961726.htm

Audi A8 LWB - Looks well and has the kit, but looks too plain to use alongside the Bentley Arnage for weddings?


http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1964142.htm

BMW 730LD - Looked crap when new, but age has been good to Hanz! Bit more interest than above, plus the L is huge!


http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1936547.htm

Jaguar XJR - Fits the bill in terms of prestige and looks, but someone forgot to add the leg-room!


http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1902953.htm

Mercedes S500L - Has the corporate and wedding use won (i.e. can use easily for both), but it is starting to look old...


http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1529423.htm

Mercedes E500 - Better looking than the above, but not sure it has the luxury/space.


Anybody any thoughts or other ideas? I just can't decide!

Nail on head. Admittedly I'm a little biased though.

That's more like it.....still seems, erm, sparse compared to its German rivals.

No Idea, I've never actually been in a LWB XJ. The SWB ones are comically cramped in the back for such a big car, though.

Would a Jag S-Type R be too cramped in the back? Always preferred them to the XJR's
