RedM Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 My sister is getting married in August and had in mind an AC Cobra as the wedding car for her and hubby to drive off in! They had in mind this: http://www.vanillaclassics.com/car.php?v=14 ...but it is on hire for that date. Does anyone know of a hire company in the West Sussex area that has these or does anyone know of an owner of one who would hire it out for the day? Many thanks.

tony1 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 You can try this company. http://www.redlinepe.co.uk/html/home.html They do not hire cars out put they specialize in AC Cobra and AC Ace both original and replicas. I know the guy that owns the company. (Neil Fisher) It may be worth speaking to him as I would have thought he knows a lot of people and companies have anything to do with AC.

Ricky49 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Yep a friend of the family son has an original one. And a work mate has a copy but looks so much like an original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Thanks chaps. They were planning on hiring one for the weekend as they aren't off on honeymoon straight after the wedding. With someone's pride and joy I'm guessing that the usage would be strictly limited to the wedding. I'll check with them if that would be acceptable and then get back to you if that's okay. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Okay. I'm waiting to hear from her at the moment so will have a chat about it all. Being a woman she'll probably change her mind umpteen times before the day anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 If you dont have any luck... A very good friend of mine, whom im working with at the moment actually. Runs a company in waltham abbey, essex, called thunder road cars. They have been building cobra replicas for close to 25 years. If you would like to talk to cheng (Company Boss), please drop me a PM and ill pm you his/my mobile. Im sure he will be able to find someone who is willing to hire you what you want, in any colour/spec you desire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Just tell her to mind the exhaust(if it has side pipes) her dress could melt on the way in/out of the cobra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
