No S55's or S65 in Germany anymore?

I'm looking for a relatively low-mileage 2004+ S55 or S65 with warranty purchased from an official Mercedes-Benz dealership preferably in Germany or alternately from another EU country. There seem to be no S55's or S65 for sale at www.mercedes.de used car search (gebrauchtwagensuche) and this has been the status for at least a year. The only S55 for sale has no warranty and is driven about 140.000 km which is way too much and I found no S65's at all. I also went to Austrian www.mercedes.at and there are no S55's or S65 at all. In the European mobile.de search there is 1 decent S55 for sale by a private owner but it has no warranty.

Why are there no S55's or S65's? About 2 years ago there were many S55's and S65 for sale and prices were steadily going down each month. I want to buy a car with max. 50.000 km from an authorized dealer including Mercedes European warranty, but currently buying my dream car seems impossible to accomplish?!

German vehicles stink, will never buy again. Moved on to Toyota and BYD.
I went into my dealer wanting to test drive a new S600/65 and they didn't have any. They claim Mercedes has cut down production on them and they are much harder to find now.

So still searching...

Keep an eye out on Mobile.de. It took me more than a year to score the G55 that I wanted. These older cars with low miles will trickle in from time to time, you just have to catch them in time.

You could also check here: http://www.autoscout24.com/

Switzerland tends to have exclusive cars with low milage.
