The perfect couples’ getaway.
In 1948, a Chrysler New Yorker was a top of the range luxury car. Movie Star Elizabeth Taylor went to her first wedding in one in 1950!
“Winston” is huge, quiet and comfortable. At 18 feet long with forward-opening ‘suicide’ rear doors, not only is there lots of space in the rear compartment for flowing dresses, but the wide door-aperture means your photographer can take some lovely in-car photographs without doors getting in the way. It seats four passengers plus the chauffeur.
Our own car featured in the recent Hollywood movie ‘Florence Foster Jenkins’, starring Hugh Grant and Meryl Streep. It’s shown in the street scene below (with the yellow taxi).
