Oakland Model 40 Tourer
Vehicle Ref 248
About this vehicle:
A magnificent and very rare Oakland Model 40 Tourer dating back to 1912, being one of only eight known of this model that are still in existence. This Edwardian car can act as a sophisticated backdrop to your wedding photographs alongside providing an elegant form of transport for the big day.
This most imposing and powerful car is superbly presented in Silver Grey livery with red coach lining and black wings. Upholstery is in deep-buttoned black leather and the car is equipped with a fully enveloping hood, a folding brass windscreen and coach lamps, hickory spoke wheels with running boards on both sides for easier entry and exit.
The Oakland Tourer is an open sided convertible so can be used with the roof fully down as a full convertible or the roof closed with the sides open which will offer protection from above.
The only thing missing to make this a ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’ style of car is wings and you could then fly to the ceremony. In the meantime the chauffeur will glide you to the ceremony at a serene pace at ground level. As with all open sided tourers a little wind from the side should be considered. A beautiful and elegant vehicle from the golden era of transportation.

I cannot thank you enough in supplying the car for our daughter’s wedding. The whole process from start to finish was carried out efficiently and professionally. The car and driver were presented in an immaculate condition and James the driver ensured that it was kept in that condition throughout the day. James himself arrived promptly, introduced himself in a professional manner and continued that vein through out the day. He along with the car are an asset to the company.

Driver was wonderful and definitely put me at ease when getting into the car before the ceremony. He was 30 mins early and was happy to wait as I was running slightly behind schedule. He stayed after the ceremony so we could have pictures. Highly recommend.

What a brilliant addition to our day! My partners favourite car is this Porsche so when I saw it on the website, I jumped at the chance of hiring it! The driver was early and my partner said what a fantastic guy the driver was- very friendly and helpful. We got pictures with the car after the ceremony and I cannot wait to see them! You made my husbands dream come true and I’ll be forever grateful. Thank you, Sammy.
