Bentley Franay Convertible

About this vehicle:

This beautiful and very rare Bentley ‘Franay’ convertible based in Surrey is a real head turner.   This drophead coupe was featured on the Franay Stand at the Paris Motor Show in 1951. The distinctive sweeping swage down its flanks, hugging the trailing edge of the rear wheel arches, shows the lines of this car superbly. The bodywork is in Ivory with a Rich Brown hood and the interior features a walnut dashboard and Champagne coloured leather seats with burgundy piping. 

Franay was a French coachbuilder of renown who dressed prestigious car chassis such as Bentley, Delage, Hispano-Suiza and Rolls-Royce. After World War II Franay built the Talbot-Lago Grand Sport and in 1955 President René Coty’s ceremonial car, a Citroën Traction Avant.   For the Bride & Groom who require their transport to be different, and very rare, this has to be the one.

The whole process was super easy, communication was great and the cars were stunning. At the start I didn’t think the cars were that important to me but WOW I’m so glad I picked these. The drivers were super friendly and eased my nerves straight away. Would highly recommend

Five stars isn't enough! Every bit of our interaction with Laleen from our first contact to wrapping up on our wedding day was so easy and effortless. Laleen arrived early, removing any stress or anxiety about hitting traffic or being late. He is such a special person and truly went the extra mile to create some magic moments for us that we will cherish forever! The car is every bit as magnificent as you'd expect! Can't recommend Laleen enough - just great!

An amazing day. This was made all the better by the car and more importantly our driver Jerry. He was great. Supportive, reassuring, flexible, accommodating and with a great sense of humour. Thank you Jerry. There was nothing that could have been done to improve our experience. Thank you too Terry.

They are perfect! Arrived on time, the bus was in great condition, they helped us on and sorted us all out, allowed us to have canned cocktails on the bus and had bin bags to help clear away the rubbish, great driving and great pictures. The decor and signs were fantasic. The driver (sorry i cant remember the name) and Jane were so friendly and welcoming.
