Mark Leadbetter, of Frith Common, between Cleobury Mortimer and Tenbury Wells, has become the first person in the county and fourth in the UK to have a custom-made stretch VW Beetle.
The car has taken more than 12 months to build, is 17ft long and is thought to be one of only 12 in the world.
Mark plans to use the unusual Volkswagen Beetle for his wedding business, Celebration Cars, along with a classic Herbie style and Convertible VW Beetle.
