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.

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.
