Mercedes-Benz S 65 L, Pearl White

Mercedes launched the W222 S-Class in Hamburg on 15 May 2013, and the S 65 AMG followed at the Los Angeles and Tokyo shows late that year, going on sale in March 2014. It came only as a long-wheelbase saloon, and its 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12 gave 630 PS at 4,800 rpm with 1,000 Nm from 2,300 rpm. When the range was facelifted in 2017, the V12 cars were given their own grille so they could be told apart from the six- and eight-cylinder models. In February 2019 Mercedes announced a Final Edition of 130 cars, shown at Geneva, and production ended that November, marking the end of the V12 at AMG.

This one is in Pearl White with silver multi-spoke wheels, a chrome grille with horizontal bars, an AMG plate in the front intake and V12 BITURBO badges on the front wings. Chrome runs along the sills and around the windows, and the boot lid carries the AMG and S 65 L badges above an AMG plate and two pairs of square tailpipes. It sits on a black suede base with white stitching and a plaque at the front. H&H builds it at 1:18.
