This gorgeous Mercedes S-Class (S550) was parked in a lot by itself, as if other motorists felt unworthy to park next to it or even near it.

There are indeed several Mercedes S-Class models that were extended in the style of the Mercedes 600 Pullman. Apparently, there remained a certain demand for such luxury limousines, even after production was stopped in Sindelfingen. They seem to compete in luxury and extravagant equipment. With a length of 6.998 mm, this is the longest one we could find. It was built by one of the most productive tuners, especially when it comes to Mercedes : Schulz Tuning. He created the most diverse models, preferably bearing the star, ranging from a Golf clone based on a Mercedes 190 to an entire series of G-Class off-road vehicles with 6 wheels, long before Mercedes did it themselves.

picture postcard by Shell tankers.
Sepia PHKW 72.981 tons
When built in 1961 she was the largest ship in the Dutch merchant navy.
Shell colour scheme soon changed to: red funnels with yellow shell, and black hull.
As in this picture.
Might be easy in maintenance, but it did not improve her looks.
When i joined her, in march 1964, "Sepia" was the second largest vessel in the Netherlands.
Only "Esso Den Haag" PDZK with 90.000 tons was newer and bigger at the time.
The ESSO tanker was built in 1963 by Verolme Dok- & Scheepsbouw Mij .
"Sepia" especially looked gigantic to me as I had been sailing on a variety of small ships and 3 deep sea trawlers.
"Egmont" IJM-99, "Amsterdam" IJM-28, "Elisabet Christina" KW 41.
This was something else !
For the first time walking towards those front windows in the wheelhouse i could not believe my eyes and i will never forget the impression that immense foredeck made on me.
Yes, she was very big and very beautiful and a pleasure to be on.
Having my cabin midships, i was impressed by the absence of noise and vibrations.
Only the water rushing by was heard, the sound of silence.
Luxury accommodations
swimming pool and large sports deck aft.
lots of spare cabins often occupied by passengers (company guests).
Sunny Mediterranean loading ports.
Yes, i liked it !
"Sepia" and her 4 sisters most certainly were among the nicest ever built for Shell.

Replica
The Mercedes 300 SEL 6.3 was a full-sized luxury performance car. It featured the company's powerful V8 from the flagship 600 limousine. The result was one of the world's fastest 4-door cars. AMG, back then a small local tuning workshop, modified a 300 SEL to compete in racing events, nicknamed "Red Sow", which finished 2nd in the 24 Hours of Spa in 1971, putting AMG forever on the map. Its racing career was short-lived, due to the lack of suitable tyres. The car was sold to French company Matra, which used it for test of jet fighter landing gear, but it didn't survive. This is a replica.
