What better way to propose marriage to your partner than with an engagement ring that resembles their favorite car.
The Petrolhead Proposals service is a partnership between a UK company Junk car comparison and longtime jeweler Edward Fleming. Each customer’s design is unique and is inspired by a selected brand or car model.
Examples include popular models like the Ford Fiesta, Mini Cooper and Lamborghini Huracan, each with its own distinctive color and design. And as with the original, there are also optional extras that consist of a personalized license plate engraving on the inner band of the ring.
