GRAND ILLUSION BESPOKE VEHICLE OF THE YEAR 2010

September 8th, 2010

The stretched limousine market is forever changing, VOSA may not have carried out the plans to impound and even crush illegally operated limousine however the government body makes no secret of the fact that it doesn’t like the American based cars.

Meanwhile stricter import standards, a tough economy, unfavourable exchange rates and the demise of Hummer in the US, have combined to see the flow of the stretched limousine into the UK turn from a torrent into a trickle. Against this backdrop, limousine buses present a viable alternative and one that meets with VOSA’s approval, as the base vehicle have full volume type approval.  We haven’t seen a limousine bus as well executed as the Grand Illusion, the first winner our bespoke Vehicle of the year award. Based on either a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter or the near identical Volkswagen Crafter, it features a fantastic interior, complete with neon lights, large screen television, minibar and colourful, fun upholstery. Party on!For more info go to

EVER THOUGHT ABOUT TRAVELLING EUROPE IN A STRETCHED LIMOUSINE?

July 29th, 2010

Well for Thame resident David Monument and three of his friends, the idea of traveling to Venice in a stretched limousine is now reality. The four of them who all work for Activision in the town, are taking part in the Crumball rally, they set off on Thursday on their European adventure, aiming to raise money for the charity Transverse Myelitis Association, this charity supports the victims of a neurological disorder caused by inflammation of the spinal cord.

 

David quoted ‘Our aim is to get to Venice in four days, there are 84 teams in the rally so I gues our aim is to win, or come somewhere close, but to get there at all would be just great. Its basically for fun and to raise money along the way. I had this stretched limousine and we thought it would be good to deck it out with an Xbox and a plasma TV so that those who aren’t driving could play it, and that when we stopped we could open it up to other races and people could have a play’.

 

The team will also be stopping at Verzasca dam, in Switzerland, which is where one of them will emulate the opening scence of the 1995 James Bond film Goldeneye by bungee jumping from the 220m structure.

96 MINIMUM PROMSTERS LEFT ON SIDE WALK AFTER VOSA CRACKDOWN

July 8th, 2010

Due to the pure fact that most limousine companies are not listening to the law or acknowledging the changes, VOSA are cracking down on the limousine firms that choose to go against them.

A prom night is the last chance to look back on your school life and remember the good times, the hard and to have an insight of what the future will bring, however one prom in Peterborough was ruined as a limousine company (not to be named) had not been honest to their costumers by not following the law and therefore creating the worst possible nightmare for a promsters last night of school life.

Twelve limousines in total were called to a stop, all of which from the same limousine firm. All of the limousine chauffeurs had no UK licence, three of the limos had then been towed and scrapped leaving the promsters on the side road, the hummer style stretch limousine had fifteen people on board with no COIF certificate, and every time they tried to turn the limousine on, it drenched the road with petrol which was coming from the engine.

From this over 12 limousines worth of prom goers last school night was ruined, how much more until people learn.

REPOSSED LIMOUSINE ON PROM NIGHT

May 7th, 2010

When the big night comes up for any teenager, so many things could go wrong for them, ill fitting tuxes, zits, wilted flowers, even the date running off with someone else, however a group of high school kids in Oklahoma had had their evening spoiled in a way that is all too indicatives of the times which we live in. On their prom night they watched their limousine they had booked being repossessed.

The teenagers and the limousine chauffer had just stepped out of the stretch hummer limousine when someone else had suddenly hopped onboard and started to drive away. ‘Our limousine is getting carjacked!’ one of the teens said as they all watched the stretch limo speed off. According to the owner of the limousine company, the vehicle should not have been repossessed at all. He then claimed that he would have to sort his issue out with the bank, but he then quoted that the bank didn’t pass the information onto the repo man. The owner say he intends to make up for any lose within this incident with a partial refund or free future rental.

This just proves that anyone who dodges the rules, will get caught and executed. With any big day, this is the worst nightmare. This is why with Limo Hire, we make sure that every limousine company that joins our directory is safe, to the best of their ability and most of all legal. Their will be no mistakes when hiring/becoming part of the family with Limo Hire.

Prius Hits London Spot

October 1st, 2009

Prius Hits London Spot
The new Prius has had a ninety percent component redesign for a lighter, more compact and efficient full hybrid system. The fuel economy in the new Prius has been improved by 10% to 72.4mpg, along with tax-efficient CO2 emissions of 80g/km which is 14% lower than the second-generation version.
Climate cars plans to replace its current fleet of second-generation Prius with the new version over the next two years. Its fleet is finished in metallic grey with black leather interiors. Climate cars offsetting policy, which means every mile covered will be logged and offset through the Carbon Clear. Greentomatocars became the first exclusively environmentally friendly private hire service in London when it launched its operations in March 2006. It now operates 100 Toyota Prius in its fleet, across London and the Home Counties.
Earlier in the year, Greentomatocars signed an agreement with the Renault-Nissan alliance to operate a fleet, of battery-electric minicabs once the cars become available. ‘Hybrid cars are currently the best solution when looking for low emission urban transport, but as soon as a serious zero emission alternative appears we aim to be first in the queue to operate those cars’ said director Johnny Goldstone.

October 1st, 2009

Pirus Hits the Spot for London ‘Eco-Chauffeur’
Toyotas new third-generation Prius is proving a hit with chauffeur companies looking to stress their environmentally friendly credentials. London based Climatecars will take delivery of 10 cars in September and October, while pioneering  ‘eco-taxi’ company Greentomatocars has taken delivery of its first new Prius and celebrated free rides in the car on its first day of service.
Climatecars founder, 25 year old Nicko Williamson said ‘we have chosen the new Prius due to its lower emissions and practicality as executive car. Our customers love the previous generation model with many commenting on how quiet the car is.’ He continued ‘we have used Prius for over two years already and have not had any reliability issues. This new model will continue to satisfy our needs providing our growing client list for over 400 corporate account holders with a quiet, comfortable, environmentally friendly ride.’ The cars were supplied through London dealer Jemca Toyota and will cover around 30,000 miles per year.

Meanwhile, on Friday august 14th, any Greentomatocars customer who travelled in the company’s first new Prius didn’t have to pay for their journey. They couldn’t ask for the car, they only found out they had won a free journey when it turned up. Greentomatocars decided to make the offer as a nod to the age-old tradition of London cabbies not charging for their first fare after passing ‘the knowledge’ CEO Tom Pakenham said ‘At Greentomatocars, we’ve always done things a little differently and we love to put a smile on our customers face. We are delighted to offer all our customers the opportunity to be the first Londoners to experience the comfort, performance and unparalleled environmental benefits offered by the new Prius.
