I could be wrong, but was the first owner of that Merc a big noise in the horse racing industry? Seem to remember that car or something with a similar plate at a lot of summer meetings back then.
12 months NCT and a dealers warranty is good going for the price.
This is the car you're thinking about, S600 V12
He has a 2019 Maybach now

Jasus, there's no way I'd want to be driven around in that thing.
What's that worth new?
About €500k before VRT

He also owns this, and it usually travels in convoy with the Maybach. It was €400k alone apparently. It'll be a great day for the parish when we see it posted in here sub €5k!

First thing I do when I see an E65 7 series is look at the lower bumper grilles for lenses:
The one on the left is for adaptive cruise, and the one on the right is for night vision.
On the inside, the first sign of a well spec'd car is the amount of seat control buttons to the left of the driver:

On a W221 S Class, the first exterior sign of a well spec'd car is the radar sensors on the grille (can just be made out in this picture) for adaptive cruise. The night vision camera lens is at the top of the windscreen near the mirror, so a bit harder to make out:
Inside, seat controls on the door for memory and heating/ventilation are the go-to, as well as the night vision switch to the right of the light controls:
(Eric Carman might confirm this, but I'm 99% sure re. the night vision camera lens location)0 -

you are correct, and night vision is on that switch as said. That one picture tells you a lot about the barge as you can see night vision, heated and cooled seats from that one pic.0 -

This scale provides a possible score for every barge out of 120, so you can metric barges on their 'fulll loadedness out out 120'

Maybe I missed one or two things, but 50/120 is a bit disappointing. Options that this might have, but can't be seen, would be: ambient lighting (4 points), rear vanity mirrors (6 points), rear mood lighting (6 points), leather stitched dash (10 points) - if this counts:
There is some stitching.0 -
