The s600 V12 version was real nice. Moved pretty fast also, but drank gas like crazy like if you had a leak in the tank. You needed to be a OPEC country member to face that kind of consumption. I liked the double glassed windows though and the curtains in the rear. You could be hot in the back seat without anybody seeing you. Cool

Nice. Is this a true "addition" to your benz family, or did it replace some other car in your collection?

Thanks guys!

Hey PC long time! No other car was replaced...this was a true addition.

I always wanted a W140.
