Default What's cooler than a limo?

Stretch Lincolns have always been a bit yankee tacky, if a bit of a laff for a gang.

What would be a cooler 'high class' transport for a well known individual? I just keep thinking Range Rover or a Bentley Coupe... Given the individual in question that needs this transport I'd probably get given anything as a favour for a few hours so cost is irrelevant.

Forget Maybach though - nasty, and Lambos etc are a bit too, well, Cote d'Azure. Think more James Bond...

Any thoughts or Range Rover it is!

Just about any limo is very uncool, chav, if you like.

Go for a Bentley, Range or a Merc (S, CLS, SL55 or SLR) and you will be right.

Limos are for groups of chav girls who go out on the lash and think they're a bit 'classy' with their layers of fat hanging over their tight mini skirts

Merc all the way - but not a white one

A Bristol Blenheim

If you can find one, it'd fit the bill rather well

Aston Martin Vanquish, or possibly DB9, both quite classy and quick, and sort of British.

Stopped at the local lights the other night, lots of chavs about. Then they start shouting towards me and thumbs-up etc.

Get this a fair bit so just ignored them. Imagine my shock when they all head for the car behind - a 60ft Hummer limo!

I could just about make out the word HUMMER right at the top of my rear view mirror - it was that high!

Now, where can I buy a 62ft garage!

LOL at the hot hire, and no he's not driving.

Thanks for confirming my suspicions guys - 'bellies hanging over mini skirts' in a Lincoln and all

Is an Aston Martin Vanquish 4 doors?

Cheers

If you want to get noticed at a "society" do - turn up in the biggest POS you can find - Something Like a Mk3 Cortina.

Will certainly turn heads .

Client needs to have their head somewhere away from their **** for this to appeal .

If their heads are up their ***** then any of the other suggestions above should do the trick.

Limo's are so NOT cool. NOT classy.

"Hi yes, I'd like to book a limo please. Pick up at 8pm at 24 high stret, drop off at 8:15 to the weatherspoons in town please, then to a nightclub at 11:15pm where we get out the limo and join the back of the queue to get in - in the pissing rain".

Unless you are in Vegas, Monaco etc then a Limo is nothing more than a 9 carat Elizabeth Duke sovereign.

The better way to travel, comfortably would be a Chrysler Voyager type car.
