About

Nigel & Jo provide vintage chauffeur services across Surrey, Hampshire, and Berkshire in a beautifully restored 1951 Armstrong Siddeley Limousine. One of only 122 built and believed to be the only roadworthy example in the UK, this rare vehicle offers a truly memorable arrival for weddings, celebrations, proms, corporate events, and special occasions. Originally supplied for Sir W.G. Armstrong and later used at prestigious events, including weddings at St George's Chapel, Windsor, the car combines timeless elegance, comfort, and British motoring heritage.

Vehicle update

With growing demand for a second car for bridesmaids, bridegroom, or other family members, we’re delighted to welcome a fabulous, slightly more modern addition to our fleet: our long-wheelbase Jaguar XJ. From the final generation of Jaguar’s historic XJ range, it combines British motoring heritage with elegant lines, gorgeous champagne paintwork and a luxurious cream interior. There’s generous space in the back for even the grandest wedding dress, while modern comforts, including power steering, mean Jo can take the wheel too, allowing us to provide both cars for your special day. Whether you choose our vintage Armstrong Siddeley, the Jaguar or the pair together, you are assured of our very personal approach.

Your Grand Arrival is a wedding travel specialist based in Reading, Berkshire.

My August wedding

Nigel and Jo were absolutely wonderful! Really responsive and very flexible. Nigel had done a test drive of the route prior to my wedding day to ensure he knew exactly where to go and how long it would take which filled me with complete confidence. The car was absolutely gorgeous and was the perfect way to arrive at my wedding.
Thank you both very much
