Maybech 57 S
Depreciation figure of approx £4,600/month, £1,150/week, £164/day. I never knew such cars were available at this money, scary depreciation figures! eek

I cant help but think the price on this has bottomed? Surely if it was preserved, maintained and run as a wedding/limo car it would turn into a very low depreciating asset & possibly even turning into an appreciating asset in future years?

These things cannot be cheap to hire?!?!

It's been "refined" by Kahn so chances are it looks even worse.

Why anyone would be tempted by these beggars belief.

I think they do very little to the top end cars? As long as the paints a top quality finish I dont see the problem, the Kahn "refinements" or "unrefinements" might even appeal to certain people.

It's been a wedding car for forced marriages. Bet the doors only unlock from the outside.

Indeed.

Looks like a tarted up S Class for people with more money than taste. The Rolls Royce Phantom is a vastly superior choice.

sub £100k Phantoms have moved through the trade apparently.

Still, both the Phantom and the Maybach have a way to go and both WILL hit bottom at some stage. The Maybach 57 will certainly be a car that in a few years time people will scrap because the tax has run out.

Ok you obviously dont like Maybech's and with good reason - everything will break and is irreplacable when it does? Simon Cowell thinks his cars naff? Have u seen Cowells dress sense?

I cant help but think its incredible value, I mean an S350 would cost you £70k.

And How much would a 56 plate RR Phantom at this mileage be?

I grant you it's very cheap but, really, would you? If I were being driven around London, surely the only reason for having one, I'd feel like a plum. Especially in white. I'll take the S350, ta.

A Phantom will run you to about £120-140k depending on spec, oddly there arer virtually none available with this "high" mileage

Wedding car hire is typically £350 a day, even if you could double that and do three weddings a week it would be hard to make it economic.

I'm suggesting that very few do high miles

Are city drivers shelling out £300,000 for Rollers now? While this might be relevant with regard to a Merc S320 CDI, I rarely see Rollers parked up in the city.

If it's good enough for this man....



Simply can't understand why anyone would want an ugly expensive S Class.
