greasegriff 0 Posted September 14, 2009 Well what a week-end! The main thing (as my new wife may well read this!) was of course our wedding - what a fantastic day! For all you singletons out there I would recommend trying it out!! If you are going to give it a bash, consider doing what we did for transport.... Lamborghini Gallardo for me, Ferrari F430 for my best man and a Ferrari 360 for my bro!! We hired them for the week-end, had a blast from Cardiff up to Brecon, down to Swansea and then back. The roads were perfect for it, the weather was fantastic and I had my beautiful bride by my side!! Still haven't stopped smiling! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted September 14, 2009 Excellent, just the way to do it I reckon! Although I think I would have gone with the 430 instead ;) And congratulations as well :clap: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonicriot13 0 Posted September 14, 2009 Awesome. :D Me and Lucy have been planning our cars for ages. She wants a Mustang GT (her favourite car in the world). I'm probably gonna go Aston or maybe Lambo. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Aston is classier probably but I didn't care - Lambo's are super-cool! 8) 8) Thats wicked mate! Did you get married up in Brecon then? I am getting married next May but we are having a couple of old American cars. Got married down in Swansea then drove up to Brecon for the reception (up the A4067 - go drive it from Brecon to Swansea if you get a chance, it's an epic road!).

Decisions, decisions. :D :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rajarella 0 Posted September 14, 2009 Where did you hire them from? Me and my best man haven't got a car and I am very tempted with what you did! Oh and you are right about the a4067, I have driven it a few times, but never in a supercar! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wendy 0 Posted September 14, 2009 I am rubbish at remembering the model numbers of cars that I stand near impossible chance of owning. - but we had a Ferrari something when I got married. :lol: 430 ? Not sure, will desperatly try hard to remember now !!!! Hubby and I went for a burn round Banbury town before heading off to the reception in one of the local villages ....and.... got there before any of the guests. :lol: :lol: Suberb fun !!

Kempy 0 Posted September 14, 2009 congratulations :clap: :clap: there are some epic roads in Wales, I often do a Brecon Run with my local Forum. Maybe we can sort a COrrado Brecon Run? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and you are right about the a4067, I have driven it a few times, but never in a supercar! http://www.f1leisure.co.uk They were excellent, fair play. Gave us a good discount for hiring 3 cars and when the F430 broke 1 mile out of the garage (throttle release valve jammed sending the engine into a 10,000RPM crescendo!) they gave my best man an SL55 AMG to keep him occupied, then delivered the F430 to us once it was fixed. Excellent service. congratulations :clap: :clap: there are some epic roads in Wales, I often do a Brecon Run with my local Forum. Maybe we can sort a COrrado Brecon Run? There are some spectacular views up there and with a gaggle of Corrado's (? collective?!) it would be great fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
