Bentley State Limousine

The most exclusive car on this list by virtue of being the only one ever made, this unique Bentley was presented to the Queen on the occasion of her Golden Jubilee. Rather than merely modifying a production model, Bentley and a consortium of suppliers built the Queen this bespoke car. It was built with input from the Queen herself, Prince Phillip and the head chauffeur, ensuring it's perfect for their exacting standards. Details are understandably scant about this one-off, but what is certain is that it's armoured and features a tweaked Bentley V8 engine producing ample power to shift its huge bulk.

What is also known about it is that the only seat in the car that's leather is the driver's, the Queen and Prince Phillip preferring a lamb's wool covering on their seats. Used for state occasions, the Bentley State Limousine is perhaps the ultimate super limo, after all, you could have all the money in the world and Bentley wouldn't be persuaded to build another.
