Highlights

• Hand-built AMG 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8 with 577bhp

• Range-topping long-wheelbase Executive luxury

• Just 46,378 miles from new

• Freshly refurbished bronze 20-inch AMG wheels

Overview

The sixth-generation W222 S-Class landed in 2013 as Mercedes' statement of intent, and it's widely highly regarded and arguably the finest S-Class since the W140. It set the benchmark for isolation, refinement and sheer presence. In S63 AMG form, all that limousine luxury hides a hand-built 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8.

This 2016 example is the flagship in its most desirable long-wheelbase Executive specification, finished in gloss black over black AMG leather. There's 577bhp and 664 lb ft on tap, a seven-speed automatic and 0-62 mph in 4.4 seconds. It covers ground with the effortlessness the badge promises.

It looks every inch the part, too. Refurbished bronze AMG wheels and red calipers give it a purposeful stance, while the long wheelbase makes it as rewarding from the back seat as the front. It's covered 46,378 miles from new.

Backed by a full run of Mercedes-Benz main-dealer services, this is a flagship AMG saloon that presents smartly and is ready to be enjoyed.
