A tank?

Seriously, any vehicle that can take 13 to 14 passengers has to be a public service vehicle , a bus or coach.
Health and safety regulations will not allow a farm cart or trailer to be used for passengers. No fire engine or such like can legally carry 14 passengers either, No chance of using a commercial truck and all piling in the back of an Eddie Stowbart, again not licenced for passengers , health and safety will be on you like a ton of bricks.
Good ideas for say 3 or 4 people but you are seriously limited when you look for transport for 14.
Is it near a railway station? hire a steam train !
i have had 2 of my kids do the 'Prom' my daugher shared a limo and my son walked there.

for our wedding, we hired an open-top bus from our local transport museum - that took about 40 people, all in.

Are there any 'dotto train' companies near you if you live near the coast or a major resort park they might have one that isn't being used in the evening and would be interested in a private hire

What area are you in generally? That might give a clue as to other possibilities! If you're after exciting then if you aren't keen on the more logical suggestions then why not hire something for a photo shoot opportunity beforehand while you are all dressed up. Location is important as it would make a difference how easy some things might be to come by and how feasible transport might be eg country, seaside, city etc...

Hi, depending on where you live you could always hire a charabanc like the one in the link below. Quite a few different ones around the country. When you open the link it is the one on the right hand side at the top and there is another picture of it further down the page.

You could go for experience rather than impact of arrival with a party bus...
