- s600 w221
Hi
Probably a very very harsh title but my heart is desperate for an s65 (have whined about it on here and other forums) but given the scarcity and the fact I needed a car I have bought the next best thing a s600 until I find a s65.
The car I have bought is very highly specced facelift w221 which has distronic, lane assist, lane warning, night vision, fridge, rear entertainment, amg kit, contour and massage seats, designo interior, pan roof, keyless entry/start etc etc etc.
I picked her up yesterday and really love the car, she looks stunning in the flesh and is the perfect spec, today got to drop the kids off while they watched mr tumble and I had a massage with distronic working and a lovely chilled temperature.
I haven't even touched the surface with the gadgets comfort and capability of this car and am definitely in the honey moon period as its barely a day old
Anyway thought I would share some pictures and early thoughts;
Car looks amazing and for my honeymoon thoughts looks better than the car that replaced it.
Car in comfort mode is a little too lazy and I already find myself putting the gearbox in sport.
Digital dash holds a wealth of info and is a tad intimidating I am sure with time I will get used to where and what all the little icons mean.
The engine is never stressed, admittedly I have only done 150 miles but you think your getting moving and accumilating speed and look down and the revs hovering around 3500.
All in all the car is everything I could want from a car(barring it being a s65 ) at the moment and I can't think of a car that would work better for me.
I feel like the car with an initial purchase price of 130k that has depreciated to a ridiculous point but is still modern enough to have cool gadgets and has performance which can keep up in a straight line with 85% of traffic feels like a tick so many box car!
Enough rambling and some pictures
