If I remember correctly if it's got ABC, there will be an "ABC" button next to the screen.

If it is base in the US it has Airmatic. Other countries may offer a mechanical suspension as base.

No mechanical suspension on any W221 anywhere in the world , I would have thought..most probably S550 base is Airmatic, the S600 and AMG ones have got ABC.The new W222-ones offer The illuster 'Magic Body Control'!

With or without 'happy ending' at owners discretion hehehe
