How long did it take you to get the ribbon right ? Took ages when I did it, then it rained and the ribbon stretched when it was damp.

That looks real classy! I want an Alfa for mine..........and one for my funeral, even if I have to be bent and coffin-less to fit in the boot!

Cheers guys

The green van is my sisters...tried to get her to move it but she couldn't be arsed! Ribbons were a doddle actually....wee bit of wire through the grill and tied to the visors did the trick.

Re: The best wedding car?
Looks good but did you photoshop the wheels on for that pic? Don't look round to me! which I could understand on the front dependant on steering position but not on rear.

Or is it just me!?

Re: The best wedding car?
aye, it was a great day...everything went to plan and i think everybody had a good time - including the guys that managed to set fire to a bread basket at the table...

The shine is just autoglym....i had messed about with clay and meguires stuff a few weekes before but to be honest the autoglym stuff gives a great shine with very little effort. Unfortunately it's now back to it's usual grubby self
