thinking out loud...say i had 10k and fancied buying an old roller or something. Reckon theres much money to be made in hireing it out for weddings? How much do they cost for a day/hour? Could make a bit of money back over a year, pay someone 50 quid to drive it. Obviously more to it then that, just fancy a nice classic car at some point and might aswel make a bit off it

thanks

I'm sure it would earn a bit, a mate of mine has limos, hummers etc and makes a fair bit apparently.

my dad has a roller and he's got 2 weddings next year with. Not made hardly any money back on it. Also if you do decide to get one, make sure you can garage it

I think more then 1 wedding car would be a better business simply because 1 car would not transport a bride/groom/bridesmaids and possibly parents...

My cousin opened a company doing this exact thing about 5 years ago, he had 2 rollers to begin with and now his fleet is touching 40 !

He makes a proper mint from it, especially with stuff like kids school proms and the likes - £250 for driving 2 ~ 5 miles.

Also hires them out at x per day (Stuff like Cobra's, Ferrari's etc)
