I guess my biggest reluctance is hiring some modern forgettable BMW or something. My wife was persuaded at the last minute by a well meaning relative that she shouldn't use the lovely white FX taxi we'd organised. She arrived in a sky blue, nine year old S-type Jag. I was livid. A couple we know got married recently in Central Scotland, they had a couple of awesome Rollers that I have photos of somewhere. I'll try and find them and PM you with them. Me n missus were talking about getting married again. Again? Man, I totally love my wife but I'm not sure I'd marry her again. Nice one dude. Yea, it needs to be four door (ruling out the shelby gt500 i'd have had) and it needs to be local to central Scotland too...

We used this... However we ended up having to do this... Fortunately after the ceremony so it got the bride there on time! My car is a bit of a pain sometimes

I think it really has to be a big tank land barge. Just need to find one for hire in Scotland.

PM Ant-Dat on here. I know he used to do work for someone with wedding cars. I think it was mainly british stuff but hopefully he's got a big yank in there somewhere

I went to Germany to buy my wedding car with the wife, and also to buy the wedding dress and other shopping (4 months before the wedding). Very nice trip, and the car we will always remember as we did the trip together. This was the car, a 306 cab. Maybe not possible on a rented car, but as a tip for others with 2-door cars. When I retrimmed the interior, I also created this to replace the front seat to have easy access to the rear. Otherwise the entrance of SWMBO might have been akward, amusing at best. It hold the champagne bottle and the glasses.

I realise it's missing a few doors from your criteria but there is plenty of space in the back

They've got the Rolls that I was unable to find photos of from our friends' wedding!
