A super Rare and stunningly beautiful low mileage Mercedes S600 V12 coupe
This Mercedes spent the first 14 years of its life in Japan - believed to of been owned by a Japanese diplomat from new
Then in 2010, it was imported into the UK and then on in mature ownership with detailed Mercedes Benz service history
Finished in the perfect colour combination of black metallic with grey leather and walnut trim. A very refined and sophisticated look and Rare with the factory dark privacy glass
Amazing specification, including heated and memory seats, electric sunroof, electric headrests front and rear, privacy glass, cruise control, CD player, electric adjust steering wheel, climate control and double glazing
There is a letter in the service file from a supplying dealer stating that the car was bought by them from a well known Rolls Royce and Bentley dealer in West London. The letter also confirms the mileage to be correct
Vehicles originally supplied to Japan will show the odometer reading in kilometres and the speedo in MPH. This is the case here. Mileage is 52,000 miles (84,000km)
I am currently using this car, so the mileage will increase a little
A completely wonderful car, quite unlike anything you’ll ever own and one of the best modern classic driving experiences you could ever have. Effortless and smooth, completely calm and easy to use around town, yet with explosive V12 power when required
A true Gentleman"s grand tourer - fantastic visibility with the large pillarless windows and its interesting to notice when driving that passers-by will acknowledge this car with a smile or a nod of appreciation
Far Rarer than a Bentley Continental R of the same period (and a third of the price) The Bentley is a car I love, I"ve owned and will no doubt own again, but quite honestly the Bentley does not drive anywhere near as well as this big Mercedes, or is as usable as an every day car
Very few were made and I doubt you’ll ever find one with this specification and in this condition
The S600 and V12 badging are original and more unusual than the CL600 badging
Qualifies for classic car insurance and is perfect to use as the ultimate everyday car or a weekend special
Classic insurance is remarkably low and depreciation is not something to be worried about. Take care of it, use it regularly, keep the service history up and this super coupe can only increase in value
Nice registration number M60 OTD (Mercedes 6.0 litre)
Mileage is 52,000 with very detailed service history from import including invoices from Mercedes Benz main dealer for the following
Control unit for electonic traction support replaced in 2011
(Mercedes Benz Western-super-Mare)
Mass airflow sensors replaced in 2011
(Mercedes Benz Western-super-Mare)
Alloys restored in 2012
(Mercedes Benz Western-super-Mare)
New catalytic converter in 2012
(Mercedes Benz Western-super-Mare)
V belts replaced in 2012
(Mercedes Benz Western-super-Mare)
Brake and suspension overhauls and replacements in 2012 / 2013
(Mercedes Benz Western-super-Mare)
Plus service work, exhausts replacements , door seals, central locking etc
The car has just been freshly MOT"d with no advisories. During the MOT, the testing station chap asked me to climb into the pit to look at the underside! ...We were both very impressed as it is in remarkable condition, partly due to the fact that no salt is used on Japanese roads, but also because the car has been perfectly cared for
So, this S600 V12 6.0 litre coupe is ready for its next owner
Very good value and increasing at £11500
Part exchange possible for an equally interesting classic car, artwork or a prestige watch. Cash either way.
