Ideas For A Car To Stretch For Limousine Work

[jaykay]

We are looking at ideas to build another stretch limousine for our fleet. Something that is not common on the roads here in Oz, something different....to Hummers, Chryslers, Caprices etc

Donor Vehicle:
Needs to be 3 years or younger,
Low kms
Approx. Purchase price $50k.
Australian Licensed so already RHD.

What would you like to see on the road and in what colour.

My first thought was a 10 seat stretch E Series Senator......

Throw up your ideas....

Cheers JK :bow:

[ova400]

A mini...........:jester:

[Toddler78]

A mini...........:jester:

now that would be cool

[jaykay]

A mini...........:jester:
A dwarf express :lol:

[SteveK]

Has anyone ever done a HSV variety Limo? There's the Chrysler 30000000000c but a black R8 stretched could work.

[ova400]

Think of the TV coverage it would get, Top Gear would be all over it.

[jaykay]

There are 2 Walkinshaws stretched here in Perth...the only HSV based stretch I have seen. There is one WM Caprice 10 seater but that is it as far as I know.

The newest ones are the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Jeep and shit loads of 300C's...

What about a Range Rover ?

[JaMeS_2007]

what about a mercedes or something classy like that??

[Grommz]

W427.. :bow:

[VYSHSV8]

A mini...........:jester:
Mini was done yrs ago same as the VW beetle :):)

[csv rulz]

alfa romeo 159 would be different - use ur imagination, doing a senator is much the same as a caprice,
Colorado with a spa in the ute section

[jaykay]

what about a mercedes or something classy like that??
there are Merc and BMW stretches here as well

[jaykay]

W427.. :bow:
read my criteria...$50k donor car lololol

Depending on the size and seat config you want John will also ndepend on the size of the engine you will need to move it:):)

I'd be looking at a 10 seater...

[VYSHSV8]

that looks similar to an F650 JK

[andrewslr]

Mercedes Vito.....could then be decked out with a leather lined interior. Would be a little classier than a trashy hummer I think, but each to their own

[SharkBiscuit]

pity about the three year or younger part I'd like to see an older australian limo.

XY GT replica
HT Brougham

[jaykay]

how about an older australian?

XY GT replica

JK, Would you get a 3 year old Rangie for $50K??????


I like the idea of Range Rover Stretch, I haven`t seen one of them before .

[MTC]

johni like the Senator idea.:) A SSv sedan stretch would also be different or maybe a HSV R8 Tourer Stretch:bow:

R8 Tourer Wagon....:diddy:

+1 for the tourer wagon

[MJR-57T]

stretch a ute and put a spa in the tray .

Now that would be cool.
A center section that has a removable roof and windows so it looks like a ute well in the center.

Have a spa in that.

Not sure about legalities though

[Evman]

In a pure practical sense the WM/E Series LWB car would be perfect in at least one regard; it already has larger than "normal" rear doors for easier entry. They're also quite a long car from factory and everything is sized appropriately, like the front and rear lights for example. It's not exactly adventurous but a good consideration either way IMO.

[theVman]

Sportwagon would be cool. Range Rover would be quite stylish. How about a Landrover Discovery 3?

Audi? A6 or 8?

I reckon a stretched Jeep Wrangler could also be cool - including a big extended removable top for summer work!! :smilesandbanana:

[theVman]

Just did a quick search on carsales for anything between $45k and $50k and there really isnt much I would stretch that hasnt already been done. Maybe Lexus IS250...

...perhaps a BMW X5 if you can find one for the price and within the age??

[jaykay]

A quick google search...

http://www.big-limos.com/images/stretch-limos/range-rover/range-rover.jpg
I like that...can someone photoshop it black plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Ls1CorpCruiser]

in melb there are...

territory's, bmw x5, current model statesman/caprice, hummers, many chryslers....

may I suggest...

jeep wrangler or something funky.... Citroen C6

[andrewslr]

Mercedes Vito.....could then be decked out with a leather lined interior. Would be a little classier than a trashy hummer I think, but each to their own

Apologies if I have offended...didn't realise you already have a Hummer

[jaykay]

Apologies if I have offended...didn't realise you already have a Hummer
No offence taken mate, the Hummer is very popular !!!!

audi Q7
http://www.limobroker.co.uk/audi-q7-limo/

the black one

[6.2L.Club]

You already have the car, just cut that one up lol.

Or maybe a ute, make it a 10 seater and keep the tub on the rear and put a spa in it, that would be sweet for summer in perth, when your not using it just empty the cum.......l mean water out of it and put the hard cover on it,

:goodjob:

[jai]

Definately think class...

White E1 Senator :)

but make it a bit more stylish - not quite what I am looking for but will do

http://www.tuningnews.net/news/071204b/startech_jeep_wrangler.jpg

something like this could also look super cool stretched!!

http://www.gotbroken.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/2009-STARTECH-Jeep-Grand-Cherokee-Overland-Front-Side-View-588x390.jpg

[HARMSY]

Love the Rangy idea, that look very classy......

Senator or R8 Tourer would both be awesome.......would love to see a photoshop of each to help make the decision

[jaykay]

What about a VX SV300 ? I know where I can find a mint one !!!

[CALDIR]

Hi

The car has to be younger than 3 years doesn't it?

regards,

HRTSEN

[vysswgn]

LOL I originally opened tis thinking easy answer a senator would look sweet as but obviously most others had the same idea now I am thinking something along the lines of an audi A8 would look nice and classy

[Nidz]

Yeah correct me if I'm wrong but I was speaking with a Limo driver who told me that the limo only has a short commercial lifespan so dosen't it have to be a new car to meet the requirements to be used as a commercial people carrier?

I was talking to the Coachbuilders yesterday and NO they do not have to be new, however an application has to be submitted to the DPI here in WA with the full vehicle details for approval to stretch.

Then there many hold points during the build that an Engineer has to inspect and sign off before the next stage can commence.

Has anyone ever done a HSV variety Limo? There's the Chrysler 30000000000c but a black R8 stretched could work.

There is a couple of stretched granges here in perth.
A WH, and a WK to my knowledge.
Try and get a stretched lambo

Wouldn't stretch the actual car, it would make sense for HDt to supply the parts (kit and wheels etc), good publicity if you ask me.

[EXCESSV]

Wouldn't stretch the actual car, it would make sense for HDt to supply the parts (kit and wheels etc), good publicity if you ask me.+1 speak to HDT and just stretch a normal SS sedan brand new are under $50K and then get HDT to supply body kit, wheels, etc

[rat rod]

With a $145,000 price tag to boot...

No No No, try a base HDT VE VK SS Group A starts at $35,000 with an options list, like Supercharger, 4 Seater Leather, HDT Brake upgrade and so on.
The Mags have all made it out to be way more expensive than it is.
$ 35,000 on top of either a Brand NEW VE SS (Base colour Phantom Black) or A SSV (Base colour Phantom Black) or if you already have a VE SS / SSV or go out & buy a second hand one, then have it sent to HDT Special Vehicles in SYDNEY.
It doesn't have to be NEW (Almost everyone sold so far has) so YES it can be your existing or a second hand vehicle.
So after all that the starting price of $35,000 isn't near $145,000 & the HDT BLUE MEANIE on the front cover of TOP GEAR & MOTOR is the fruit, the whistles & bells, a Show Case of what HDT can do.
35K = 350Kw (optional Supercharger)
HDT Forumula Blue Paintwork
HDT VK Group A Inspired Bodystyling
HDT Group A suspension - Bilstein
HDT Group A full exhaust
HDT Cold Air Intake
HDT 19 inch AERO STYLED wheels in either ALPINE WHITE or SILVER Machined
HDT Herringbone Cloth Trim - 5 Seater
HDT SS Group A Build Plated of only 250

So a pretty good investment. Only 250 & all HDT FORMULA BLUE only.
You do the sums, some very good no trade deals at holden dealers at the moment, just heard of a SSV MANUAL for $45k
Then add on your HDT SS Group A package & well now that all starts to make dollars & sence.......
Each to their own, not everyones cuppa, but something unique & different

What do you think ?
Anyone interested now ?

[iloveholden]

I say DO IT JK!

[seldo]

The photochops of the Blue-Meanie look terrific, but JK has to build a car that is appealing to the public at large - not just a bunch of rev-heads, most of whom will never even sit in it.
I like the Rangie or the Audi Q7

I like the Rangie or the Audi Q7but there are walkinshaw limos and old GT HO limos too.

if he was thinking to appeal to the public at large he wouldnt knock back doing a ford variant...a FG XR8 or typhoon or GTE etc. but his brand loyalty is affecting a BUSINESS decision. he has a holden and a ford would be a good choice. there are as many holden as there are ford ppl that would want to hire a limo

So the logical choice would be an Audi....

[jaykay]

Went down to the Audi Centre to check out a Q7...there are about 6 hail damaged ones there along with many other variants of Audi's.

A silver Q7 there is 2009 with 13,000km Turbo Diesel reduced from $100k + Sd to $76k + SD.

Spoke with the coach builder and the roof damage is not an issue as they put on vinyl roof when stretching. A replacement bonnet is $2k and the doors can be repaired they are not too bad.

We are going to respray whatever car we do so the silver paint is not an issue.

It was a shame to see the two door sports versions like the S5's :bawl: so damaged, but a bargain to be had....

i recon stretching a van would be great, like a vito or even a ford transit, they are so tall and big on the inside, it would be like a bloody living room. OMG Call it the living room. you could do sooooo much to the inside

A Jag XJ8 would also be good - has a great prestige perception in the general market place (read non-petrol-head). One problem though could be that the alloy monocoque may cause problems/costs in the stretch.

The only thing I dont like about the Q7 stretches is they appear to 'sag' in the middle due to the roof profile. If you could fix that then it could be a goer.

that looks nice but the lines are wrong for stretching...

[balis0r]

I saw a mazda CX-7 the other day and wondered what it would look like as a stretched limo.. would that work though?

[jaykay]

Looking like maybe a FG G6E on gas 12 seater..... :1peek:

Hi

Thats pretty close to my suggestion of a Typhoon. At least your selection will keep most of the Ford crowd happy and the FPV crowd dreaming of what could have been!

Suzuki Mighty Boy?

Suzuki Mighty Boy?

You could stretch that 10 times ... it'd still only be the same size as an ordinary Commodore. :lol:

I'd be keen to see a stretched Landcruiser 100. Give the Hummer some competition.

[maggie]

a vl limmo would look sweet lol
