W116
The Mercedes 450 SEL 6.9 is the top-of-the-line version of the W116 model S-Class luxury saloon. It was built by Daimler-Benz in Stuttgart, and based on the LWB version of the W116 chassis. It featured the largest engine of any non-American production car post WW2. The 6.9 was first shown to the motoring press at the Geneva Motor Show in 1974, and produced between 1975 and 1981. The 6.9 is among the first vehicles ever produced with electronically controlled anti-lock brakes, first introduced by Mercedes and Bosch in 1978. Only 7.380 examples left the factory. This example was previously owned by the French pop star Claude François.

Mercedeses are favored in Albania. This very gangsta old W126 S-class was spotted in Sarande in 2004. I wish I had also photographed the old cement mixer in the background - it still had all of the text from the original Austrian company on it, but every single piece of glass was broken or missing. I don't know what could have happened to it.

Ultra-clean W126 S-Class. I'm guessing 300SD (it was debadged, and the For Sale sign had no info on it). Gorgeous.
Spotted out and about in Hamburg.

Founded in Germany in 1977, Brabus has grown to become the largest tuning firm specialising in Mercedes-Benz products, other than the Mercedes' own AMG subsidiary. This breathtaking example of Brabus's handiwork is based on the ultra-luxurious Mercedes Maybach S650 sports saloon, one of the face-lifted Mercedes-Benz S-Class models introduced in 2014. The German tuner's upgrades boost the 6.3-litre twin-turbo V12 engine's maximum output to a staggering 900 PS (887 bhp) and 1,106lb/ft of torque - figures way beyond those of even the none-too-shabby S650's stock 6.0-litre unit (621 bhp/738 lb/ft). The result is a top speed of over 217mph and a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) time of just 3.7 seconds - true supercar performance from a vehicle weighing 2.8 tons (2,845 kg). German car magazine Auto Bild pitted a selection of supercars against one another in a test of acceleration where the Brabus 900, despite being the heaviest contestant, reached a speed 211.4 mph in a mere 3,000 metres (1.86 miles).
But Brabus's cars have always offered more than greatly improved engine output, and in the S650's case the German tuner also added a new aero-enhancing front bumper, custom alloy wheels, 'Brabus' logos, and a luxurious leather interior complete with a rear-seat entertainment system and 'Brabus' entrance lights. Of course, with a bespoke vehicle such as this, individual customers could vary the specification to their personal choice, though inevitably that would add to the already not inconsiderable base price of a little over € 500,000.
Finished in black with brown interior, this spectacular Brabus 900 has covered a mere 620km since it left the factory and is presented in effectively 'as new' condition throughout. Noteworthy features include twin sunroofs and Platinum Edition 21" forged wheels, and the car comes complete with an iPad mini, Microsoft Surface, optional touch-screen operation, Apple TV, wireless connectivity, and an LAN router. Sold with all Mercedes-Benz books and a Brabus owner's manual, it needs only for the battery to be charged and will be ready to go. The car is offered with Equatorial Guinea registration document and technical inspection.

'Nobody who viewed or evaluated the W140 when it first appeared was in any doubt that Stuttgart's engineers had excelled themselves once again: the car was a technological tour de force, which had been designed with typical Mercedes thoroughness and was built to the usual impeccable standards.' – James Taylor, 'Mercedes-Benz Cars of the 1990s'.
To say that the new W140 S-Class bristled with new technology would be a gross understatement, for at the time of their introduction in October 1991 there was no denying that these were the most advanced passenger cars in the world. With production of the saloon models getting underway, Mercedes announced the planned upmarket coupés at the Detroit Motor Show in January 1992. Built on a shorter wheelbase, they were available at first with only two alternative engines: a 5.0-litre V8 or 6.0-litre V12, and shared their mechanical underpinnings with the W140 saloons. Starting life as the 500 SEC and 600 SEC respectively, they were renamed S 500 and S 600 in 1993, and CL 500 and CL 600 in 1996.
This magnificent Mercedes-Benz CL 500 was ordered new by the current owner and delivered by via the Belgian dealership, Vereenooghe. Every four years the owner would buy a brand new Mercedes, and he always returned his current car to the dealership; with this car, he just could not part with it! Boasting every conceivable option, including overnight heating and a sunroof, this car cost a fortune when new - four million Belgian francs - which is the equivalent of € 100.000 today. Having covered only 47.000 kilometres from new, the car is presented in excellent condition throughout, with an interior that still smells like new. Finished in possibly the best colour combination for the model, it comes with Belgian registration papers and all the original books.
