danim Posted January 31, 2012 yeah but where are the curves, where's the style. The name reflects the design, the beast. President Pepper wanted a classical vehicle with modern features this is what the queen drives in here in the uk Bentley State Limousine by kenjonbro, on Flickr or the car of the prime minister or other royal members Jaguar XJ LWB, unmarked Range Rover, Chrysler Voyager drop Prince Charles at Birmingham New Street station by wicked_obvious, on Flickr and for reference here is a video of a convoy for a member of the royal family Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From William Howard Taft to Barack Obama, each U.S. president has had a special spot in his heart for his presidential car. Here's some fodder for next presidential car trivia contest, courtesy of the LA Times.

It's the type of stuff supporters of presidential car trivia must know. Dig in. Article source: US presidents and their cars, part 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
