If the regular Mercedes S-Class isn’t luxurious enough for you the Maybach version takes opulence to a whole new level, as Rory Reid finds out in this video.
Rory already had a taste of the new S-Class when he checked out the Mercedes version but now this sumptuous limousine has had the Maybach treatment. So, does this truly enhance the experience and do the changes go further than simply adding lashings of chrome and a large dollop of Maybach motifs? After appraising the outside, Rory gets comfy in the rear seats where he finds an environment centred around refinement and relaxation; plump pillows, reclining chairs, screens galore and – of course – a mini fridge is fitted to complete the list of must-haves. This is a real flavour of how the other half live. Each Maybach can be customised with an extensive choice of paint colours, but what if you are after an S-Class with a meaner and less blingy look? Rory might just have found the car for you, so keep watching to the end where all will be revealed.
