We have seen so many different types and styles of limos over the years so nothing should be a shock, right? Well, how about the Harley Davidson Limo…Bike? Now, there are a few Harley limos out there in the world but the Limo Bike that is something as unique as its name. The bike looks like a typical Harley from the front end, then as your eyes wander back you will notice the carriage in the back that can hold eight people.

In the Limo Bike you have all the comforts as a traditional car limo including the bar and TV. You can choose to ride inside the carriage or in the back two seats, letting the wind blow through your hair. The Harley Limo Bike is a stunning pearly white color with chrome accents that are so shiny you can see your reflection.

If you want to be seen riding in this beast through downtown Edmonton — I’m afraid you’re out of luck. It’s home is all the way in Australia, which makes me picture it being driven by kangaroos. And that makes me laugh way more than it should.

If you managed to raise the cash to get it temporarily shipped to Canada, I’d personally take it to Ontario for the Friday the 13th rally in Port Dover — Canada’s largest bike rally. I’m sure you’ll be king (or queen) of the beach.

The Silver Ghost: One Limo To Rule Them All.

Do you know what the terms Rolls-Royce and Limousine have in common? What about if I added The Silver Ghost to that combination of words? The year was 1915, the car was a Rolls-Royce 40/50 hp Silver Ghost…with a limousine body! That’s correct this favorite maker of luxury vehicles was breaking the mold. Silver Ghost enthusiasts more commonly refer to this car as the “Mary Rose.”

Captain H. Whitworth, from Yorkshire custom ordered this car but it ended up being picked up by the New York Rolls-Royce distributer, Schuette and was then sent to Mrs. Alfred DuPont of Delaware.

An interesting fact about the makings of this limo, it was made during a time when all the companies in Britain were focused on providing things necessary for the war, but when King George V. made the request for this vehicle directly and personally, the company hopped right on producing it.

The Silver Ghost was the first and only 1 out of 5 Rolls-Royce vehicles to have coachwork done to it by Hamshaw Ltd. of England. This spectacular limo has had about half a dozen owners throughout its lifetime. The limo boasts luxury from the 1900’s with the wicker trunk, ivory door pulls, C.A.V. lighting, intercom and even an inlaid folding wooden table. This limo had all the bells and whistles for its time.

During an auction in 2007, the Gooding & Company purchased The Silver Ghost limo for a total of $1,100,000.00. When the Silver Ghost limo changed hands again in 2012, it was purchased for $561,000.00. This lovely piece of history has been sought after for years by many British car collectors, those who are lucky enough to own it, even for a brief period of time are willing to pay top dollar for that title.

The World’s 3 Longest Limos

Limos have always been able to catch our attention. When we see a limo we immediately think celebrity, someone important or a wedding party. They are a symbol of importance for those who are riding in the limo, especially since you do not see limos driving down the road all the time. Before, limos were just extended cars, but now you can even order an extended SUV limo. Let’s take a look at the 3 longest limos in the world!

The longest limo in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records is 100 feet long, and surprisingly, it is mobile. Due to its staggering 26 wheels, it can roll along just fine!

Incredibly, this limo comes complete with a Jacuzzi, sun deck, and pool. No limo would be complete without its own helipad too, right? They say this limo is big enough to fit an entire football team and still have room to spare. This limo has since been retired and resold to an unnamed bidder.

The next limo on our list will turn heads no matter where it goes. Known as The Midnight Rider, this limo is 70 feet long and weighs 25 tons! This limo can hold 40 people comfortably. The Midnight Rider was built between 1997 and 2004 and is connected to a big rig front end to pull it. It is reminiscent of an RV trailer being pulled by a big rig. It truly is quite a sight.

The third and final limo on our list is a Chevrolet Corvette C6. This limo screams luxury the entire way around. This particular limo measures in at 220 inches long. Convert that 220 inches into feet, and you have just a little over 18 feet worth of luxury right here.

There are so many types of limos out there today, from the extremely long to the extremely weird, I guess you could say there really is something for everyone’s taste.

How long would it take to change 26 flats?

The Midnight Rider. We believe it ate KITT.
