The Baroque Angel

Garden of England Classics Wedding Car Hire has a stunning 1961 BMW 502 V8 saloon available to hire for your special day. Nicknamed the “Baroque Angel”, it was BMWs most luxurious car of the era. It was this opulence and gracious styling that made it the car of choice for well to do drivers.

It is finished in a gorgeous blue with a cream cloth interior. The rear doors open nice and wide allowing easy access into the comfortable, and luxuriously appointed interior.

Easy communication with Niall. Beautiful classic BMW 502 V8 for our wedding and the driver Darren turned up an hour before the scheduled time to make sure everything would go smoothly. I can recommend using their services. Pyn-An – Bride October 2022

This is an exceptionally rare car here in the UK which makes it perfect for couples looking for a stand out and unique classic.

Powered by a 2.5ltr V8, this luxurious BMW 502 is a wonderful relaxed cruiser that turns heads everywhere it goes and the V8 burble just adds to the passenger experience!

The Chauffeur Driver will arrive dressed in a retro style suit that would have been appropriate to the period of the 502 series, which adds something a little extra the the nostalgic driving experience.

Package Bolt Ons and Extras

Below are the options and extras you can add to your hire. These allow you to tailor the hire to suit your special day. If you need to discuss any of these options please do get in touch.

The Get Away Package - £45

With more and more couples choosing to hold their ceremony and reception at the same venue, it is often hard for them to get a break from all the attention. So why not add our Get Away Package to your booking. Our driver will take the bride and groom on a 30 minute drive after the ceremony, while their guests head off and prepare for the reception.

Additional Hours Hire - £55

If your ceremony will take longer than usual and you would like the driver to wait longer for photos, we can add this to your package. This adds an extra time cushion to the hire and lets the Bride and Groom enjoy the after ceremony and not have to keep an eye on the clock.

Bubbly Beverage - £12

Why not add a refreshing beverage to the occasion by adding a bottle of non alcoholic sparkling wine to the package. We would love to offer champagne but unfortunately it is actually illegal to serve alcohol without a license. So our alternative is to serve something non-alcoholic which will still look the part in the photos.

Extra Mileage Allowance

Sometimes the travel on the day will exceed our standard 20/30 mile allowance. If the total journey length is more than the allowance, we charge an additional £1.50 per mile to cover fuel costs. This also adds extra flexibility if there is a large group of bridesmaids that require multiple trips.
