This really is a special car, and not only because of its spectacular condition. Having been in the family for some 40 years, it has been used for many of our own family weddings, both before and after the birth of Rye Classics.

The top picture is an old one, taken on a touring holiday in Scotland. Petrol was a great deal cheaper in those days. "Now, I'm sure there was a caravan attached to the back when we parked here."

The tables that fold down from the back of the front seats conceal a mirror ... very useful if you want to check that you don't have some breakfast stuck in your teeth.
