Guy Arab Burlingham Seagull Coach
Vehicle Ref 863
About this vehicle:
This beautifully presented 1959 Guy Arab Burlingham Seagull coach, finished in a classic two-tone pastel yellow and green livery, brings unmistakable 1950s elegance to your wedding day. With its flowing Seagull bodywork, twin-windscreens, chrome detailing and large panoramic windows, it’s a real head-turner and looks fantastic outside period manor houses, barns and countryside venues.
Inside, the coach offers comfortable seating for up to 41 passengers, making it ideal for transporting larger groups of family and friends together. The interior retains its authentic mid-century charm, complete with vintage cloth seating in warm colour tones and spacious visibility throughout — perfect for guests to enjoy the journey as part of the celebration.
First built in the late 1950s, the Burlingham Seagull body became iconic across the UK. Known for its distinctive curved styling and smooth ride, the Seagull was considered one of the most stylish luxury coaches of its era. Paired with the robust Guy Arab chassis, these coaches served British operators for decades. Today, surviving examples are rare, and having one beautifully restored and available for wedding hire adds something truly unique to your wedding day travel. This 1959 Seagull isn’t just transport; it becomes part of the day.
Whether you’re moving guests between venues or creating a memorable backdrop for your wedding photos, its retro charm, elegant colours and historic character make it a standout choice for couples wanting something unique, and full of personality.

Glynne was brilliant on our wedding day. He arrived early, immaculately turned out and the car spotless. It felt so special arriving in a Rolls-Royce. Glynne took us for a drive after the wedding and was super accommodating whilst we took some pictures with the car. Thank you.

Beautiful car as described. It arrived earlier than expected which meant there was no stress waiting for it. Driver was very friendly and helpful. We had 5 people in the car and had plenty of room even with a large wedding dress. It was lovely to arrive at the venue with the top down. All in all so glad we chose this car and service.
