I’M starting my own chauffeur business. I need a luxurious, long wheelbase limo for
£30,000. What are my options? We’ll start with one of the most popular limos out there – a Merc S-Class. We’ve found a 65-plater with
14,150 miles, powered by a creamy
255hp 3.0-litre diesel. Comfort and refinement are classleading plus its image to the outside world of understated class and sophistication is perfect for a chauffeur company. Yours for £30,000.
Next is the Audi A8. For years, this flagship limo has been edging closer to the Merc, and although not quite there yet, it’s accomplished enough to provide a compelling alternative.
A 258hp 3.0-litre diesel powers fourwheel-drive, meaning superb traction in less than perfect conditions.
Toys include air suspension, panoramic sunroof, a 60gb built-in hard drive and leather all-round. A 2016 model with 10,000 miles it’s £30,000.
Slightly alternative to the Germans is a 2016 Jaguar XJ with a much higher mileage (64,000), but it is the current model, unlike the other two.
That means you’ve got the prestige of driving an up-to-date car with a punchy 296hp 3.0-litre diesel.
Highlights include a Loire Blue interior with cream quilted leather, massage seats. It’s £29,995.
