Hi,

I’m considering buying an S65 coupe (C217), partly to enjoy owning a V12 engine before such things are banned/become socially unacceptable.

If anyone on here owns one, or has owned one, then I’d be interested to hear of any advice you are able to offer.

Of course, a complex car will throw up bills from time to time and routine servicing won’t be cheap, but I’d be keen to know about any particular ownership headaches owners might have experienced. The car would be used as an occasional tourer, rather than as a daily driver.

Many thanks!

I'm not sure the boot is big enough to take fishing rods.
