Space for the Dress
First and foremost, the rear seating cabin is spacious, making it perfect for brides with large dresses. Additionally, it features foot stalls for added comfort, allowing you to relax during the ride.
Entry and Exit
‘Robert” boasts rear-hinged coach doors, which provide a wider opening. This thoughtful design makes it easier for you and your guests to get in and out of the vehicle.
Seatbelts
There are no seatbelts. ‘Robert” was registered in 1947 and seatbelt laws were not introduced until 1983.
Viewing the Car
You can view ‘Robert” in person before booking. Therefore, feel free to reach out to schedule an appointment at your convenience.
Capacity
The car can comfortably accommodate up to 4 passengers, which makes it an ideal choice for either the couple or up to 4 bridesmaids
Decorations
‘Robert” comes standard with white ribbons. However, other colours can easily be arranged to match your wedding theme at no extra charge, providing a personalised touch.
Refreshments
Lastly, while we cannot serve alcohol due to licensing restrictions, we do offer non-alcoholic bubbly options that can be provided for a perfect ‘champagne’ look in your photographs. This way, you can still enjoy a celebratory atmosphere.

The RAC hp ratings were used to determine which taxation class a car fell into, with an annual “road fund” fee of £1 per hp payable. Therefore a 12hp car would pay £12.00 in the 1940s. In today’s money, this is equivalent to approximately £840.19!
