Franklin 147 Saloon Special
Vehicle Ref 128
About this vehicle:
This amazing American Vintage car in Devon is very rare indeed and after spending it’s early life in the USA it went to Canada to be fully restored, and now there are only 11 left in the world with this particular car being the only one left in europe so if you want your wedding transport to be unique then this Franklin should top the list.
The engine in the Franklin is actually an aeroplane engine although we are assured your chauffeur will keep strictly to the roads on the way to the ceremony venue, although the Bride may have her head in the clouds ! With it’s wide band whitewall tyres and hickory spoked wheels this vintage car is truly a little bit of American history.
You will definitely be noticed in this head turning automobile. Although a rare car we actually have a matching pair of these Franklins if two are required.

The car arrived promptly 15minutes before the allotted time. The driver, Peter, was very professional and was very kind and understanding. He even let me direct him a longer route, down some country lanes, not just direct to the venue. I honestly had the best time ever. Thank you!

The Rolls Royce Ghost Series II was stunning. Our driver Jay arrived 45 minutes early and was super helpful in every way. The whole package was perfect. We would highly recommend Premier Carriage Wedding Cars and especially this wonderful vehicle and the driver Jay.

We hired the Beaufort 4 Door Wedding Car for our special day, and it was absolutely perfect! The car itself was stunning—elegant, comfortable, and a real head-turner. It added such a classic touch to our wedding. Our driver was fantastic— professional, punctual, and incredibly friendly, making the journey even more enjoyable. Everything ran smoothly, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!"
