Joking aside, approximately when is the big day?

Might have something appropriate by then...

Went to Classic place today, let's just say something from 1950's is going to most likely be it.

The company only bought it last month, fully restored, they paid £98k for it.  :o

It would never ever be an Omega, much as I love the old girls, they are not a brilliant looking car.  ::)

Good solid Saloon, nothing special though I'm sorry to say looks wise.

They'll show people their wedding photos and people will think they got married in the nineties.  ::)

The Allegro is a timeless example of how not to 'update' an ageing model. The last Scorpios are a similar example.

Don't know as they're worth 98K but a '59 Cadillac convertible-in pink!
