Default Had a little 'play' with this today !!

http://www.royallimos.co.uk/ferrari-limo.htm


Riding over to long itch diner to meet a couple of peeps off here to go for a little ride, I jump on the mway as I'm running a bit late, anyway, traffic slows as there had been an accident.
I roll up to a 360 Ferrari at about 30mph, then as the traffic starts moving again, he allows a bit of space between him and car in front and drops it down and boots it, engine singing very nicely, so I'm in top gear and stay right up his tail pipe, so he try's even harder to pull away.
To my surprise while this is going on, I discover it's a stretch limo Ferrari 360 , absolutely bonkers

He tried a few more times dropping down a couple of cogs and flooring it but it wasn't even remotely quick enough tbh to pull away. I suppose in his defence it's a bit heavier, sounded awesome still.

Anyway pointless story but thought I'd share as it made me smile.

They claim 0-60 under six seconds which is an age in bike terms, so the stretch part must be fibre glass I reckon, as the standard car ain't much quicker than that.
No match for the sprint though, wasn't even trying tbh, I didn't even change down

Although they are all extremely chavy and I cringe when I see them on the road, the Q7 on the website looks pretty cool.

A nice S class or XJ, or LWB phantom or maybach if your feeling really flush lol... Proper limos :P

IIRC, they were taken to court because once they modified it, it was no longer a ferarri and ferarri didn't want them to keep the badge on it.
