Brits who bought a rusty American limo for $1,050 reveal why their unusual choice is a contender for ‘best daily driver’

Two Brits who run a YouTube channel on cars bought an American limo to use as a daily driver in the UK.

When all is said and done, their experience was mostly positive.

Specifically, they basically only named one drawback but several advantages.

The drawback – no surprise here – is maneuverability.

Pros and cons of using an American limo as a daily driver in the UK

Edwin Klinkenberg Evans and Alex Kersten, the two Brits behind the Top Dead Center YouTube channel, bought a used American limo for just $1,050 with 200,000 miles (320,000km) on the clock.

The main drawback, let’s get that out of the way, is the fact the car is obviously too long for UK roads.

Not only that, it isn’t particularly easy to drive around also because of its many blind spots.

Having said that, everything else about it is more or less great.

The American limo is a seven-seater vehicle, which means you can drive friends, family or colleagues around.

It’s also quite spacious, which makes ideal to run errands.

Limos are more common than we think

The stretch limousine these guys bought is a Lincoln Town Car, which is probably the most common American limo.

But the thing is, just about any vehicle you can think of has probably been ‘reimagined’ as a limo at some point.

The Mercedes S600 Limousine is also quite popular, and it isn’t a one-off.

Then there are one-off creations that are a bit wild, but certainly interesting.

Just off the top of our head, we can think of the custom Range Rover limo that Mike Tyson once used, and there’s also a 40-foot monster truck limousine.

If we had to pick one, we’d say the Ferrari 360 Modena stretch limo certainly takes the crown.
