Wedding car fallen through

[Luke.]

Afternoon all. I've already posted this in the Scottish forum but thought I'd stick it in here and see how long it lasted for.

Anyway I digress.

I thought I'd call on any trusty Scottish PH'ers to see if they could recommend a wedding hire car company around the Highlands/Dornoch/Inverness.

I'm getting married on the 25th at Dornoch Cathedral and have just discover the classic Triumph we were going to use is out of commission.

So any recommendations truly appreciated.

Thank you.

These guys bought my cousins old Dodge. They seem to have good range of stuff.

Sorry, can't help. What Triumph were you going to use? (just curious, and at least it gives it a bump for you!)

Urm.. it's only (roughly)600 miles each way.

I think an almost immaculate white Triumph Stag would make a lovely wedding car. Stop being such a spoil-sport, Varsas.

Sorry wasn't a Triumph at all. It was a Talbot Sunbeam.

Why not just ask an owner of something nice on here if they fancy coming to your wedding, offer them first dibs on the bridesmaids and a few beer tokens.

You will probably end up with something very tasty.....

Beer tokens aplenty if anyone has anything.

But what about the bridesmaids?? Pictures with custard also required!

Thanks. It was.

It was a kind offer from a friend of the future father in law.

I'm a Londoner so don't know the Highlands that well at all, hence my request for info on here. Called a couple of companies on google, but they seem reluctant to answer.

Have you tried Focus vehicle rental? They used to have some special stuff,not sure if the bother these days though. 01463709517.

Probably for the best then.

Carriages of Scone

They are based just north of Perth and may be willing to travel further north. Might be worth a call, also find out what the current fleet is.

Enjoy your big day
