The W222 Mercedes S class is Mercedes premier luxury Saloon, the designe proposal of the car was created by Il-hun Yoon, a Korean designer, who was inspired by the Mercedes-Benz F700 concept car while the cars exterior design was developed by a team of designers under the direction of Robert Lešnik.and and is bristling with cutting edge technology
Mercedes AG had revived the retired Maybach name in 2002 for a range of Maybach 56 and 62 hyper luxury saloons, but following the heavy impact of the 2008 international financial crisis the division was reveiwed, and following the revelation that each sale represented a 330,000 Euro loss the decision was made to cease the Maybach brand, merging the bespoke luxury cars into the existing top of the Mercedes luxury line, the S class
In 2015, Mercedes brought back the Maybach name as a sub-brand of the Mercedes lineup, representing advanced luxury. The first model produced was the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, designed to be pitched against the Bentley Mulsanne and Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII, At 5,453 mm (214.7 in) long with a wheelbase of 3,365 mm (132.5 in), the new model is approximately 20 cm (7.8 inches) greater in both dimensions compared to the long-wheelbase S-Class models. The Mercedes-Maybach is available as S 500 and S 600 models with 4MATIC optional with the V8 engine and V12 for the latter. Mercedes also claims that the S Class is the world's quietest production car The Mercedes-Maybach S 600 is also available in a Pullman version, a chauffeur-driven sedan which includes a partition-separated ultra-luxurious rear passenger compartment with two sets of paired facing seats. This version is equipped with the V12 dual-turbocharger gasoline engine, the seven-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive. The same vehicle is additionally available as an armoured version, known as the Pullman Guard
Mercedes Maybach S600 shares the same 5980cc V12 Bi-Turbo engine with the standard S600, both are tuned to an output of 523bhp, though the Maybach is slightly slowere on account of its greater weight

Car and Driver remarked that the 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL 6.9 was ‘the greatest Mercedes ever built, deified because it struck a valiant blow in the name of performance’, and this particular car is perhaps one of the finest examples available.
Its odometer shows just 10,200 miles, believed to be original, and it presents in wonderful condition. Its hand-built M100 6.9-litre V-8 engine is devoid of any signs of prolonged use, and its unused spare wheel still with its label attached remains in the trunk. Options include a Becker Mexico AM/FM radio with cassette player, automatic climate control, heat-insulating glass, and an electric sunroof.
Delivered new to the United States and in particular California, as indicated by the ‘494’ option code, the car spent time in Massachusetts and New Mexico, as well as California, covering minimal mileage. More recently it was imported into the Netherlands in December 2015 by a Mr W Van Hamersveld before being acquired by its current owner in Switzerland in late 2016.
Truly one of Mercedes-Benz’s most remarkable sedans, any W116 450 SEL 6.9 is a joy to drive and enjoy, and this example would be no exception to the rule.

Mercedes-Benz' new 3.5-litre V8 engine debuted at the 1969 Frankfurt Show in the 280 SE coupé and convertible, and the 300 SEL saloon. An over-square design featuring a cast-iron block and aluminium-alloy cylinder heads, each equipped with a single overhead camshaft, this all-new, state-of-the-art M116 power unit produced 200bhp (DIN) at 5,800rpm courtesy of Bosch electronic fuel injection and transistorised ignition. This was some 40 horsepower more than those models' existing 2.8-litre six, so performance was greatly increased.
From 1971 the new V8 was available in the 280 SE saloon, the marriage resulting in a fast and well equipped 'gentleman's express' combining 200km/h performance with considerable luxury. Running gear was pretty much state-of-the-art from the time, consisting of independent suspension all round and four-wheel dual-circuit disc brakes.
The 3.5-litre version of the 280 SE saloon typifies the resurgence of larger-engined Mercedes-Benz models that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s when the progressive easing of fiscal constraints, which had dissuaded customers from buying cars with large capacity engines, encouraged the German manufacturer to offer bigger, more potent power units. One of the rarer mass-produced Mercedes-Benz saloons - a little over 11,000 being built between March 1971 and September 1972 - the 280 SE 3.5 is today much sought-after by collectors.
This floor-shift automatic transmission 280 SE 3.5 saloon is equipped to an enviable specification, boasting a sunroof and a gorgeous Pullman interior. Owned for many years by a passionate German collector, the car was purchased in Germany by the current Belgian owner some 7 years ago. At the time of purchase the previous owner was told that the car was used by the Mercedes-Benz Factory as a demonstrator during the Munich Olympic Games in 1972 to convey the athletes. Described by the vendor as in excellent restored condition, and in full working order, this rare and supremely elegant modern-era Mercedes-Benz is offered with German registration papers.

The SMR ran a passenger service until their carriage shed mysteriously burned down in the 1930s. No.15 had little to do after that; shunting and the occasional freight train to Cessnock. The locomotive is a based on the NSWGR S class (later 30 class).

These W140 S-classes have a bulk about them that makes them unmissable on the road, and were the last of the truly over-engineered Mercedes. This 3.2-litre version registered in August 1993 must have been one of the last to be badged 300SE as the designation had changed to S320 in June that year. Note that it has to make do with wheeltrims of the same style as lesser models, a specification unthinkable on such a car these days.
The Mercedes-Benz W140 is a series of flagship vehicles that were manufactured by the German automotive company Mercedes-Benz from 1991 to 1998.
As with each generation of S-Class, a plethora of innovations in technology, climate protection, and creature comfort was introduced. Those innovations later trickled down to smaller C-Class and E-Class models over time.
The three body types are carried over from the W126: four-door sedan/saloon in two wheelbase lengths and one two-door coupé. The model types are assigned as W140 for standard wheelbase, V140 for long wheelbase, and C140 for coupé. In 1996, S-Class coupé was renamed as CL-Class and spun off from S-Class. A longer Pullman version with 4140 mm wheelbase was introduced in 1995 with two engine choices (S 500 Pullman and S 600 Pullman). The S 600 Pullman could be ordered with armour package.
Shown here is the second-lowest selling version of the W140 range, the short wheelbase 600 SE (later known as S600). This featured the shorter of the two saloon bodystyles, paired with the largest (standard engine), the new to Mercedes-Benz, M120 6.0 L V12. This engine featured 4 valves per cylinder and DOHC, producing a mighty 600 kW.
As an early series W140 car, it can be identified by the amber turn signals.
Though somewhat brutal looking, the W140 once again cemented Mercedes' claim to build the best car in the world.
The W140 range, would later go on to provide the basis for the reintroduction of the Maybach marque in 2002.
I was fortunate enough to attend the public launch of the W140 range in Sydney in 1991 - a spectacular affair, thousands of people, food, drink and entertainment.
