my latest blog post What is Inside of a Limousine?
More and more distinct car models are used to build a limousine. In distinct countries you can find their locally built cars. Some of these vehicles look exotic , and all of them are stretched. Yes they are positively stretched (at least more than twice). Not every turn at every road can this car overcome at first.
What is Inside of a Limousine?
So, you probably already have questions. Then we have the answers. How do the passengers feel? What does the driver feels when driving nearby in this car? What do the owners of these vehicles feel?
We have just learned about this. And have not been able to hide this from you. Pail of black caviar, golden toilet, a suitcase of dollars. Dimensionless limousines in the connection will look at a amount of rare harmony. "Honey, I will send a limousine for you" does not it sound great?
However, a limo can boast its own very few people. It is not even a high price and usefulness of these vehicles. Which car can be called a limo? Extended sedan - the limousine, car with a partition between driver and passengers again a limousine.
Even commonplace six windows sedan - also sometimes called the limousine! In fact, agreeing to generally thorough classification, the limo should be understood as a passenger car with four or six doors with a bulkhead to the front seat row.
Well, turns out, Chevrolet Suburban, which is depicted in our photos in various poses - not a limousine? Formally No. Nevertheless, any passerby noticed this car in the road will criticism about the "limo"! Then the game becomes a concept - above a word "stretch". Make any car "stretch" - and you will get people's "limo."
The most expensive limousines, are normally made of high-class European automobile manufacturers themselves. A typical example - Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman. Such vehicles do not work on the appearance of the imagination, but quite capable stun with the price. And in the armored version of the price just kills to death: half a million dollars is not the limit. By the way, these cars give a ride to presidents of many countries. Other kinds of limousines are often used as a taxi or corporate purposes is based on not the most expensive cars and can have up to six doors. It is easy to meet these cars on the road now days, In Seattle, such cars sometimes occur: these may be a Chrysler, Lincoln, or a Mercedes-Benz.
And more... Stretch, super stretch, ultra stretch, ultra super stretch - the creators of these fantasy vehicles inexhaustible. Sometimes it seems that the limousine is not to accomplish any task, but only as a means of expression. 10 seats, 20 seats, 30 seats, Tv, Dvd-players, bar, restaurant, pool, a heliport, a golf course, Aquarium of the current model of the aircraft carrier in full size.Even if you do not think of what would have such a wish, in the limo it will be.
Of course, five axle stretch with a swimming pool instead of luggage - that's very exotic, demonstration of the company, a kind of Limo-concept. But the four wheels drive Suv in length more than fifteen meters, able to comprise a football team, along with spare bench players - it is as you see the reality. Whatever can touch this limousine! And if you want or need, you can come to be king for a day - from 0 per hour and sometimes even cheaper.
The most classic limousine, normally based on the Lincoln Town Car. The basal point here - the nearnessy of frame: originate a stretch of the car with the supporting body - the task much more troublesome and expensive. And it's simple: the body of serial machines is cut exactly the middle, and between the front and rear doors they need to insert the box with windows - the so-called insertion. The length of insert and defines a class of limousine. Town cars, as a rule, increase to 60-120 in. (1524-3048 mm) and can grow off, and 200 inches, while other times they are longer.
Production of limousines in the United States alone are perplexed about fifty firms. Of those that are well known - Tiffany Coachworks, Dream Coachworks, Crystal Enterprises and others. Together, they originate amazing things. For example, in the model amount of a Dream six axle Lincoln Navigator, and Crystal could portray such a amazing creature, a Hummer H2 with eight doors!
In principle, a thorough fillings, which have American cars is adequate to stretch: the engine and transmission remain intact. But suspension and braking systems can be enhanced - all the same total weight of the car becomes much heavier. Again, it is indispensable to refine the system exhaust, causing it to conform with the new length of the vehicle.
Limousine is considered faultless when performing even some procedures. Have you guessed? Right: in the list of electrical equipment is an further generator and battery, a heating and air conditioning equipment is more effective - as required by a huge passenger compartment.
The interior space and decor - this is what built limousines. All - for the good of man! And no one - but for the whole company! Our Gmc is designed for 14 persons, in full possession of which mirrored bar with illumination. At the bar - with crystal decanters, wine glasses for the champagne bucket. Immediately - aquarium with artificial fish: water bubbles and changing colors, animals rollicking and things that please the eye.
At the mirror ceiling shimmers stars - multicolored Leds depict romantic sky. In the case of enclosures, placed in the ends of the cabin, mounted Lcd Tvs, and two displays placed at side racks. The signal to them is either a Dvd-player, or Vcr - these devices are placed at the floor under the seats. Over the most Vip seats placed operate panel for all devices and next to it the remote operate - head unit hi-fi audio system with two 12-inch Subwoofer.
You can dispose a party right in the car, highlighting the intimate semidarkness stroboscope flashes and filled the cabin space of artificial smoke and laser beams. And you can turn off all of the above at once, or to ask about the driver - the same panel is in the cabin. In the same cabin, though, there are a few things. For example, a walkie-talkie to narrate with the controller, or police and many other devices which are indispensable driver.
Is it difficult to drive a limo? agreeing to limo driver's words, you can get used to everything. Of course, for stretch limos there are a lot of restrictions. Thus, for example, pre-crosses Route: Stretch Limos cannot make a sharp turn the first time. While it is generally we be able to drive in any place in the city, in some places is not without problems. Surprisingly, the degrees of rotation - is not the most prominent characteristic of the street.
What is prominent is how wide the road is! However, for the expert there is a puny or no problems with the maneuver. You can see how skillfully drivers at huge track drive back? by the mirror. In this sense, driving a limousine, even easier: do not exist at all desire.
Do limo drivers violate traffic rules? Only when this is due to extreme commercial necessity. The most common violation - it is right to exit into the oncoming traffic or turn in the wrong place. State Patrol, being enchanted by the greatness of the stretch and the top professionalism, its driver, refer to some trespasses leniently.
All in all. Everybody respects the limousine. In an effort to turn in the crowded traffic conditions (for a car length more than hundred feet, almost every turn in the city is fraught with well-known complications) stretch limo may block the road and make a big traffic, but few drivers will start convulsively honking at a slow giant. Who knows who or what may be inside of this car. May be people, who are going to a wedding. No imagine to spoil their good mood.
But speed is respected everywhere. Even in rush - the company prohibits a driver to exceed a speed of 60 mph.
Actually, there are no any special problems with the operation of a limousine in the city. But there are inviting features. Take, for example, maintenance and repair. almost every big limo clubs have specially trained citizen who check technical health of limo.
They also make some repairs. However, it is positively not omnipotence: does a modern car require the expert service. Can you imagine how to lift a limousine? No, because there are no lifts, which could perch 200 inches of the limousine. In general, the qoute is, but it can be solved. Only the savvy needed.
