The Mercedes-Benz S-Class defines the luxury limousine class. It's what the first Lexus LS "aimed" at, and it's what Rolls-Royce has to be better than to justify its price. Each generation has been awe-inspiring with its distinguished styling and presented technologies for years to come that leave the competition behind.
The featured example of the Mercedes S-Class W221 is distinguished by a delicate Lorinser visual package, adding a special flair. It consists of bumper skirts, sill plates, a spoiler on the tailgate and 20-inch wheels inspired by the Mercedes SLR McLaren turbine rims. The subdued changes are difficult to notice with the untrained eye, yet they make the car exude a slightly different emotion than the regular eSka. The classic black paint perfectly complements this aura.
The condition of the Mercedes does not weaken this impression. The condition of the paint, windows, headlights, etc. is excellent. The car dates from 2005 and has a documented mileage of 46 thousand km.
The experience of interacting with the S-Class is difficult to describe, as it is the sum of many thoughtful decisions at every stage of design. The doors close deafeningly and one is immediately surrounded by silence, which is due to soft leather and soundproofing materials. Passenger contact with plastics is kept to a minimum, and plastics have been replaced by metal and wood. The extreme bench seats have full adjustment and a set of automatic blinds for the windows.
The engineers' attention to detail is also evident in the ride. The car rides... like an S-class, that is, softly, but with adequate control of its own weight. The pedals are progressive, providing smooth stopping as well as acceleration at all speeds. The V8 adds a bit of character to the car, but the 388 horsepower is primarily used to move this limousine without the slightest effort.
The chassis is clean and complete. No signs of wear on the suspension components and covers. The car comes with a set of documents.
