There`s a 'sheep' connection here; the word Limousine comes from the similarity of the leather roof-hood on old chauffeur-driven cars, to that of the hooded cloaks worn be shepherd`s in the Limousin region of France. ;)

Technically; the car bearing the deceased to a funeral is a hearse......the black limousine`s carry the mourners. :y

What you're calling a limo is actually a 'stretched saloon'' according to the V5. Daimlers' DS420 was the last British car to have limousine on the V5
