**Mercedes S CLASS S600L AMG Pack** 2006

Hello and welcome to the sale of my Mercedes S600 V12 Twin Turbo!

This truly is a special car!

I have been thinking for a while now that maybe it is time I sell this car and let someone else enjoy it. This has been a very difficult decision to make as I have a big passion for cars and this has been by far the best car I have owned to this day. I have owned some great sports cars over the years, BMW M3's, Audi RS model and other big engine cars but hand on my heart, for me nothing comes close to this S600! The options this car has, the way it drives, the performance from such a big car really is something else. It gets compliments every time I take the car out.

I can go on and on about the car but I will try and keep it as short as I can.

I have owned this car for over 3 years now and in that time I have spent in excess of £14k on the car ( not including buying it ).

The car will also come with its private plate S600 OCD

People that know me say it as a joke that I have OCD with my cars because I never let them get dirty and I got this plate for it which I think is perfect especially that it says S600 also. You can either read it as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder or in my case Obsessive Car Disorder

The car has had one owner before me and he bought the car from Mercedes in Beaconsfield and the car has been serviced and looked after all of it's life by the same dealership. I bought the car in 2018 and the car was serviced at Mercedes Beaconsfield late 2017. Since I bought the car I have bought the parts from the same dealership and done the work myself or by one of the master techs that I get to work on my cars. I have all the invoices for everything that has been done to the car for the new owner to see that it hasn't just had genuine parts fitted but it has actually been over serviced in this few years that I've owned the car.

I have the service book and I also have all the records of when the car has been at the dealership for any work that it has had throughout its life.

This month I decided to take the car at Mercedes in Beaconsfield for a health check and a gearbox oil with oil filter change. I have the video and the health check list from Mercedes that show that the car is in fantastic condition. The mechanic complimented how nice the car is and that its rare to see one in such a good condition.

This is the list of things that have been done to the car in my ownership,

It has had a full service done including all 24 spark plugs!

New genuine Oil cooler with oil cooler pipes, just under £1k for parts alone

New Genuine thermostat [ just under £500 for the part only ]

New engine mounts

New gearbox mount

All four rear subframe mount bushes changed. Genuine parts from Mercedes

Two tensioner pulleys

Genuine Alternator belt

Offside rear shock absorber

Four genuine ABS sensors

Rear brake pads

Coolant temperature switch

Hunter wheel alignment [ all four wheels ]

I bought the car with just over 112000 miles on the clock and i have done about 5000 miles in this 3 years that I've owned the car. If you look at the thread i posted in the Mercedes forum, you will see how many times i have changed the oil in this car as i wanted everything to be perfect! I never thought i would sell this car and I have changed things that maybe didn't even need changing.

I am a member on a couple of Mercedes forums.

The car is a 2006 model but I have done a full facelift AMG conversion apart from the headlamps. It has had a,

Facelift S65AMG front bumper

Facelift S65AMG rear bumper

Facelift S65AMG side skirts

Facelift exterior door mirrors

Facelift rear lights

AMG exhaust tips with back boxes taken out.... it's not too loud. It sounds beautiful.

Boot spoiler

Facelift front grill

Brand new 21 inch AMG alloy wheels with matching Continental tyres all around that are in excellent condition.

Adjustable linkages fitted and this makes it very easy to adjust the height of the car.

Being an S600, it has a very impressive list of options and the S600 came only as a long wheel base model which means more room for people at the back.

I'll try and write what I can think of now but I'm sure I'll miss some of the options.

It has front dynamic seats ( they hug you as you go around bends )

Heated and cooled front seats

Massage front seats

Fully electric and memory front seats including the headrests

Heated and cold rear seats

The S class has always been 10 years ahead of it's time and looking at this car, you realise how advanced it was for it's time as even today it's still an impressive car with some amazing features.

Anything negative to mention about the car?

Unfortunately the car is a cat d but the damage was so small, I couldn't believe they wrote the car off. The only thing that was damaged was the rear bumper and the exhaust on the left side came off its end bracket. It was such a minor damage that the previous owner drove the car like that for a further 6 months until his new S class Mercedes was ready. Most people like to say for a cat car that the damage was minimal when trying to sell it but I have all the pictures that show the damage to the rear bumper and what condition the rear of the car was. I am more than happy to provide photos of the damage and I also have pics that show when the bumper was removed there was zero damage to the reinforcement bar, not even a scratch. To write such a car off for very very little damage is criminal in my opinion!

Apart from this, there are a couple of small imperfections to mention. The drivers front seat only warms and cools the lower part of the seat. I have not looked into this but I'm guessing a wire is maybe broken?

There is a very tiny parking ding on the passenger rear door, around 1mm - 2mm big that you can barely notice it unless you get very close to the door but I just want to mention anything I'm aware off. Thanks to one of the kind neighbours opening the door!

Also the passenger mirror, if you fold it when locking the car, once you unlock the car it opens more than the position it should stop at. I have turned the electric folding mirror off in the menu when locking/unlocking the car and it doesn't cause any issues.

I mentioned that the car has keyless entry and you can open the doors or close them by putting your hand on the door handle but for some reason the drivers side doors have stopped working. You can either press the key to lock/unlock the car like other cars that don't have keyless entry or the passengers can unlock it by pulling the handle.

This are very minor things in my opinion and don't take away what an amazing car this is but I want to be honest with anything I'm aware about the car.

You are more than welcome to come and view or inspect the car.

If you need any more pic's of information's, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you

Sam
