The need for Speed – Limo Style

So we all know that Limousines are for the rich and famous, government officials or royalty. Gliding along elegantly in their bubble of sedate and surreal steadiness, watching the world go by in their reliable and dignified limos like a feather floating down from the sky, wafting in a gentle breeze. Nope, not anymore, this bunch of bad boys are anything but serene and steady. They’re ferocious, they’re mean, they’re loud and boy do they shift. All preconceptions that you may have had about the speed of a limousine will leave your little Chrysler choking on their dust. Larger than life and shifting faster than a 2L Golf GTI these bad boys not only look great but it is one way to make a statement; an over-exaggerated one but actually who cares? We have the 3 fastest limousines in the world here. A lesson to be learnt, never ever underestimate the power of imagination. “Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider, is chaos for the fly”

Audi R8 Limousine

3.7 seconds. Yes you read that right. 3.7 seconds to go from 0 to 60MPH. It is brash, it’s very white and boy to does it move. The Audi R8, limo style. It is loud, proud and kitted to the hilt but then what would you expect from an Audi R8? Kicking out a ferocious 525bhp, with a huge 5.2L engine this big brute is not to be messed with. With a top speed of ‘just; 194.4MPH she will leave most standard cars staring at her larger than life back end that is only matched by her heart.

Ferrari 360 Modena Limousine

Who would have thought that a supercar could be made into car to transport a lot of people and by a lot we mean it. 8 seats worth, so enough room for a family, the dog and your granny. Not that Granny would actually appreciate the beauty of this beast but she would have to hold onto her teeth, that is a guarantee. With a top speed of 170MPH and kicking out a whopping 400bhp, Gull doors and 23feet long make this saucy little number the ultimate boy’s toy. Everybody needs a Ferrari or at least to dream of one.

Lamborghini Aventador Limousine

It isn’t for the faint of heart and it certainly is not demure and delicate. This is what happens when a supercar gets stretched beyond what is normal. She embraces the beast within and kicks ass. Rumoured to have a top speed of 200MPH this beauty is powered by a 6.5L engine and can reach 60MPH in just 3.5seconds. We’re not entirely sure what to make of this bunch. Of course they’re quick, of course they show more brute strength than the English soccer team but as limousines we are undecided. I wonder if supercars should just be left as that. Super-powered, smoking hot, sexy and quick. Love or hate this bunch of lightning fast Limousines, nobody can deny they are a novelty, a scribbled drawing from a 12year olds mind that probably should have stayed on paper. Stretch limo supercars are just like seeing the in-laws. A novelty. Once a year is good enough, any more becomes a trauma.
