Oldsmobile Rocket 88
Vehicle Ref 698
About this vehicle:
Welcome to the world of the fabulous forties, the era just after World War II when people were beginning to learn to live again after those dark days of the late 30's and early 40's. No longer were cars all Black but their designs and colours were in stark contrast to what went before.
This classic American Oldsmobile Rocket 88 shows just what we mean, body styling until it can't be styled any more and the colours are upbeat and lively in the elegant colour scheme of Blue and White with Ebony and Cream seating the colours are simply stunning for the style. Although a two door vehicle the main bench seat tips forward for easier entry and exit.
A very photogenic vehicle with a split screen windscreen, wide white banded tyres, large chrome bumpers front and rear and an elegant sweeping design culminating in the beautifully sculptured rear trunk. It is sure to be the main star at any wedding, after the Bride of course !

We had an excellent experience with this car on our Wedding Day! The driver was fantastic and tried his best to get us around as quickly as possible, despite the terrible traffic conditions. Thank you very much for such a comfortable day with five star service. Best wishes, Natasha & Izaak

Overall a good experience. the car was in great condition and clean and the driver very polite and courteous and arrived on time. Some communication issues however…. I did telephone days before to discuss a different pickup address which was a very short distance from the original and was told that this caused no issues at all.

This is a beautiful car. A surprise for the bride and her bridesmaids and they were thrilled. Communications with the chauffeur James were excellent. Neither could have been more helpful and accommodating. I am delighted with both the vericle and the service provided. I have not yet received the official wedding photos but will forward copies once I have them.

We hired a Land Rover as our wedding car, and it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect. The vehicle itself was absolutely stunning and fit the setting of our North Yorkshire wedding beautifully — rugged, classic, and full of character. It made for some amazing photo opportunities out on the moorland!Our driver was fantastic from start to finish. He arrived on time (actually early, which really helped calm the nerves), was incredibly professional, and had such a friendly, relaxed manner that instantly put everyone at ease — especially the bride and her dad on the drive to the venue.After the ceremony, he took us out for photos across the moors, and it turned into one of our favourite parts of the day. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible — nothing felt rushed, and his attention to detail really showed.We can’t thank him enough for helping make our day so special. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something a bit different, memorable, and full of charm for their wedding transport.— Ross & Amy Hinchliffe

Good afternoon,My parents surprised us with a London Cab to take us from the church to our wedding venue on 20th September (as a reference to Matt being from London as we got married in my hometown in Wales), and we just wanted to send a quick email to say how amazing our driver, Alistair was! A big thank you for helping us make our day special and especially for standing in the torrential rain while we had a few photos and allow the younger children to pose with it.We can't wait to get these photos back from the photographer!
