This week I was privileged to have a tour around Joe Wilson’s collection of fabulous cars. Joe has been fascinated by cars his whole life and is the owner of Premier Limousine hire in Carndonagh. The company caters for all types of functions from weddings to hen and stag nights. There are more cars to come as well because Joe is lovingly renovating 2 Daimlers, including a DS420 wedding car. There is also a 1973 Rolls Royce Shadow 1 in the workshop at the moment being restored back to its original condition.
Name: Joe Wilson.
Address: Carndonagh.
Car: 1996 Lincoln Town Car 120" Stretch limousine
How long have you had the car?
I bought the car in September of last year.
Any plans to change?
No, I wouldn’t like to part with any of the fleet of stretch limos I have.
Is it reliable?
Yes
Best thing about the car?
That has to be the size. It isn’t the easiest vehicle to get in to a tight spot though!
How often do you wash it?
After every run. Although saying that there is still some crazy foam on the bodywork from the St. Patrick’s day parade that I took part in!
Any modifications?
Yes. The car was stretched by a company called American coachworks, who are based in California. As well as being long it has all of the added luxuries like a leather interior, bar, TV and DVD.
If you were the minister for finance, what would you do to help motorists?
Make petrol cheaper. This car only does 12 miles to the gallon.
What would you really like to be driving around in?
I also have a 1971 Ford Zephyr V6. It has to be my favourite stretch limousine by far. I plan to renovate it so hopefully driving around in it will be a reality soon enough!
