Triumph Roadster
Vehicle Ref 417
About this vehicle:
The Triumph Roadster was the first vehicle made post-war by the Standard Motor Company after their acquisition of Triumph. Being manufactured in 1949 means ours, affectionately named ‘Charlotte’ was one of the last ones made. It’s design went back to the classic tourers of the 30’s, even to the extent of featuring the ‘dickey-seats’, whereby 2 extra passengers could sit on seats in the boot! On this car these unique seats even had their own windscreen.
This particular Triumph Roadster became very famous as the transport for actor John Nettles in the Jersey based television detective series ‘Bergerac’ and was featured in our Blog News “Famous Film and TV Vehicles for Wedding Hire” for its appearance on the Big Screen
As the roadster is a convertible it is only possible for her to operate during warmer times of the year. Of course we all hope for good weather on your big day, but just in case, we always reserve a Jaguar XJ whenever ‘Charlotte’ is booked out. This gives the option to swap right up until the last minute.

We had a fantastic day ! The car was beautiful and the Driver was caring and looked after my father who had a medical condition which meant he needed help in to and out of the car. The car is fantastic for a Brides big day if they want to travel with both Mum and Dad to their wedding. Thanks for making this a special memory for us all. We also enjoyed hearing the horn peep and waving at pedestrians as we made our way along the seafront to the Registry Office.

Thank you so much to John for a fantastic service last Friday! We absolutely loved the car and the special touches. John has such a wonderful demeanour that really helped keep my nerves at bay. The car was a real hit with all of our guests.

We booked our wedding routemaster bus through premier. The booking process was smooth and the price was good compared to other companies that we researched. Our driver (Steve) and his team on the day were amazing, very professional and went above and beyond. I cannot fault the actual team who provided the bus.

We hired our wedding car through Adrian and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. The car was beautiful and absolutely spotless.
Adrian was accommodating, kind and easy to chat with which made the journey feel even more special.
Thank you, Adrian! Ella and Matthew

Amazing service and experience with Premier Carriage but also John on the day! The car was exactly what we wanted and John was a calming force on the day that is just what you need in the whirlwind of weddings! Would highly recommend.

Both Didier and Peter were great to work with. The details were clarified with Didier and once passed to Peter, we had 2 phone calls ahead of the wedding to ensure everything was correct. Peter arrived promptly to pick the Bride up prior to the ceremony and was happy to take a slightly longer route to fit our timings better. The car was lovely and we had a great chat with Peter on the way to our reception, he was very friendly. Everything ran smoothly, we would 100% recommend to friends and family. The car was a big talking point for the rest of the day, and still now!
