I’ve just seen this… Thing…



I've just seen this monstrosity, I just can't fathom why someone would create such a thing. Has anyone been in one? Is it as terrible as I imagine? I've never seen one before.

  1. A Vauxhall Omega Estate had a baby with a Vectra. Thought it was a ute at first glance.

  2. Could be an ex funeral car or similar. I’ve seen various car models that have been converted for this reason

  3. What are you on about? When you make a limo you start with a luxury, executive saloon car as a base.

  4. It’s just a car used for funerals, do you not go outside? Or are you only driven around in lambos.

  5. Say what you will about Vauxfail but those Vectras are rather comfy to be in as passengers. Granted, generally whenever I was inside one it was a taxi, and I was usually either drunk or stressed needing to get to an airport, but they do a good job being a comfy saloon that devours mundane miles in absolute indifference.

  6. While the Vectra itself was a pretty naff car, this is likely to be a decent piece of kit.

     Top end engine- power needed to haul the extra weight about- stiffer suspension for better handling, full leather interior, full electric windows, dual zone climate control and pretty much all the toys available, plus a full service history and an immaculate interior. Eight seats, big boot space and, most importantly, that sweet glass partition so you and the Mrs can drive in peace while the kids scream and shout in the back seats.

     Apart from a bigger turning circle, it’ll still shift and will hold its value better than a standard Vectra of a similar age. Can be driven on a standard UK licence too.

  7. I was always kinda fascinated by these kinda “limos” when I was a kid. (Always was a sucker for the old school American Towncar-style limos)
