Bentley Franay Convertible
Vehicle Ref 481






































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.

This was a wonderful addition to our wedding, our guests loved it and it really added to the occasion. Our driver was lovely, timely and competent - handling difficult hill starts like a pro. Would thoroughly recommend for weddings and other events

Frequently Asked Questions
£100 per car. Some coaches, buses or older cars may be slightly more. We will confirm the amount of deposit to be paid on your quote.
Quotes are worked out using many different factors such as length of hire, chauffeur's availability, date of the wedding, time of the day, total mileage and route access.
Most certainly, we want you to be sure the car chosen is right for you.
All Weddings are different. The minimum time a car can be hired is one hour for a one-way journey. If you require your wedding transport to wait until after the ceremony for photographs and/or onwards journeys then it would increase the length of hire. Typical registrar/church wedding would be for up to three hours hire.
