The company Mercedes-Benz has decided to upgrade the most expensive four-wheel representative in a number of model Maybach limousines. Updated Maybach 62 will come on the market in the second half of 2008 as a model in 2009.

The appearance of the car changed slightly. Maybach 62 will contain a new lattice radiator with fewer vertical bars, and new rear lamps with LED optics. In addition, Mercedes-Benz designers are now working on a new generation Maybach, which is going to be added to the market no earlier than 2012.

Legislation

"We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to introduce a single limousine licensing system for all limousines (1 to 16 passengers)."

Details of Petition:

"At present none of the laws truly fit stretched limousines, these vehicles are being forced into legislation which is neither appropriate nor fair. There are at present 2 main associations representing this industry who have been trying to lobby this cause only to have most doors blocked by unfair and antiquated law. Its time this industry of over 10,000 (tax paying) limousines had a say and the government allowed VOSA/DVLA and the police to work with this industry instead of against. Very soon proposed and badly thought out legislation will force over 50% of these vehicles of our roads simply because the industry has had no say and not because they are dangerous. Over 30 years the stretched limousine industry has been in business in the UK and not 1 single person has been killed in one. The safety record speaks for itself!!!"

Read the Government's response...

The Government is aware that there has been some confusion surrounding the licensing and safe operation of stretch limousines. The Department for Transport issued Guidance for Operators of Stretch Limousines in January, which sets out clearly the requirements for the safe and legal operation of this type of vehicle.

The law is clear in this area. Virtually any motor vehicle used in Great Britain to carry passengers for hire or reward on a commercial basis needs a licence of some kind. The type of licence required depends upon on the capacity of the vehicle and the type of hire or reward operation undertaken rather than the type of vehicle used. Operating without the requisite licence is a criminal offence.

For vehicles constructed or adapted to carry more than 8 passengers, the licence required is a public service vehicle (PSV) operator's licence issued by the Traffic Commissioner. For vehicles adapted to carry 8 passengers or fewer, it is either:

a taxi or private hire vehicle (PHV) license if the vehicle is hired out, with a driver, as a whole (taxis can ply for hire, PHVs can only take pre-booked hirings). These licences are administered by the relevant local authority who have discretion on what vehicles they will license (DfT has issued guidance to the licensing authorities advising them to consider any applications for PHV licences for limousines on their merits rather than formulating local policies which effectively rule out limousines altogether);

a PSV operator's licence if it is used for carrying passengers at separate fares "in the course of a business of carrying passengers", once again issued by the Traffic Commissioner.

To legally carry more than 8 passengers on UK roads the vehicles must comply with various parts of the Construction and Use Regulations 1986, including Schedule 6 (Minibuses). Vehicles of the stretched limousine type, at present, do not - in particular they often do not have adequate emergency exits, the turning circle is too large and the lights, tyres and glass are non-compliant.

If constructed to meet the required standards there is nothing stopping a limousine from obtaining a Certificate of Initial Fitness (COIF) and operating as a PSV using a PSV operator's license.

From Summer 2008, a new pre-registration inspection will prevent the registration of limousines that do not comply with the Construction and Use regulations. This should have the effect of ensuring that in future, larger limousines (with more than 8 passenger seats) are able to comply with the COIF standards that must be met for the limousine to be licensed to carry paying passengers.

Limousine Co to settle penalties

An East Boston limousine company was ordered to pay $65,000 in restitution and penalties to the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority because it used employee's personal Fast Lane toll transponders to avoid commercial tunnel fares in the course of its business last year, Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley announced recently.

Not only did A&M Limousine Service Co., Inc. make use of lower fares using noncommercial transponders in the Ted Williams and Sumner tunnels, Coakley said, the company owned a 40-cent discount East Boston, North End, and South Boston residents are usually granted for traveling the underground roads.

"Abuse of the MTA's resident discount program to literally steal from the Commonwealth is unacceptable and will not be tolerated," Coakley said.

The complaint alleges A&M used employees’ personal Fast Lane transponders on company limousines to avoid paying commercial tolls. Coakley says that allowed the East Boston-based service to pay a local resident discount rate of 40 cents for trips through the Sumner and Ted Williams tunnels, rather than the commercial toll of $4.50.

The state alleges A&M evaded $32,000 in tunnel fares. Under the arrangement filed in court, A&M contradicts any wrongdoing.

Limo driving

Limo driving has several features and limitations. In planning the route should take into account such factors as the width of the carriageway, and the angle of the streets, since most car length can cause problems when passing the narrow turns. In some cases, limousine drivers are forced to violate the rules of the road. Typically, these violations are linked with turning in a prohibited place in the counterclaim and exit lane when overtaking. However, the inspectors road patrols to understand the inevitable problems in the driving of long-shell cars. Speed limits are strictly followed the same limousine drivers. Although the powerful engine can disperse up to decent speed machine, the company set a speed restriction in the movement of up to 40 km/h for the drive and comfort of passengers. Overall, the professionalism required to drive a limousine inspires respect from others. Even when turning in a heavy traffic when long machine blocks street, few other drivers decided to express their impatience.

Manufacturing limousines

Car deals and its body divide into two parts, which are in the process of manufacture virtually don’t change. Replacing the old frame exposes the machine. It is completely clean and establishes a new desired length. The length of the frame is determined by the size of the future limousine. Most common in the production of the frame length of limousines received 7.5, 9 and 10 meters. The selection of specific values of the length of the body depends on the appointment of a limousine, domestic equipment, the number of seats, and other factors. Engine and gearbox remain the same. This is because of serial samples Lincoln Town Car is a powerful V-shaped engine. In connection with the increased workload suspension equipped with the enhanced silent-blocks and springs. Advanced Limo salon can be equipped by bar, television, a DVD player, a negotiating device between passengers and the driver, with a mirror ceiling coating and other attributes of high-class cars.
