2016 Mercedes Maybach S650 Brabus 900 Chassis no. WDD2229761A180599 • Luxury saloon with supercar performance • 620km from new • 'As new' condition • Comes with all Mercedes-Benz books Fußnoten Founded in Germany in 1977, Brabus has grown to become the largest tuning firm specialising in Mercedes-Benz products, other than the Mercedes' own AMG subsidiary. This breathtaking example of Brabus's handiwork is based on the ultra-luxurious Mercedes Maybach S650 sports saloon, one of the face-lifted Mercedes-Benz S-Class models introduced in 2014. The German tuner's upgrades boost the 6.3-litre twin-turbo V12 engine's maximum output to a staggering 900PS (887bhp) and 1,106lb/ft of torque - figures way beyond those of even the none-too-shabby S650's stock 6.0-litre unit (621bhp/738lb/ft). The result is a top speed of over 217mph and a 0-62mph (0-100km/h) time of just 3.7 seconds - true supercar performance from a vehicle weighing 2.8 tons (2,845kg). German car magazine Auto Bild pitted a selection of supercars against one another in a test of acceleration where the Brabus 900, despite being the heaviest contestant, reached a speed 211.4mph in a mere 3,000 metres (1.86 miles). But Brabus's cars have always offered more than greatly improved engine output, and in the S650's case the German tuner also added a new aero-enhancing front bumper, custom alloy wheels, 'Brabus' logos, and a luxurious leather interior complete with a rear-seat entertainment system and 'Brabus' entrance lights. Of course, with a bespoke vehicle such as this, individual customers could vary the specification to their personal choice, though inevitably that would add to the already not inconsiderable base price of a little over €500,000. Finished in black with brown interior, this spectacular Brabus 900 has covered a mere 620km since it left the factory and is presented in effectively 'as new' condition throughout. Noteworthy features include twin sunroofs and Platinum Edition 21" forged wheels, and the car comes complete with an iPad mini, Microsoft Surface, optional touch-screen operation, Apple TV, wireless connectivity, and an LAN router. Sold with all Mercedes-Benz books and a Brabus owner's manual, it needs only for the battery to be charged and will be ready to go. The car is offered with Equatorial Guinea registration document and technical inspection. VAT, Car Tax and Customs Duty at the standard rates will be payable on this Lot if the car remains in Switzerland. Bonhams is the guarantor of the customs duties and taxes clearance: consequently, this motor car cannot be released to the buyer or his transporter immediately after the sale. Mercedes Maybach S650 Brabus 900 2016 Châssis n° WDD2229761A180599 •Luxueuse berline aux performances de supercar •620 km d'origine •« Comme neuve » •Vendue avec tous ses manuels Mercedes-Benz Fondé en Allemagne en 1977, Brabus a évolué pour devenir la plus grande marque de tuning spécialisée dans la préparation des produits Mercedes-Benz, en dehors de la propre filiale de Mercedes, AMG. Cet exemple à couper le souffle du travail de Brabus est basé sur la très luxueuse berline sportive Mercedes Maybach S650, l'une des Mercedes-Benz Classe S recarrossée, dévoilée en 2014. Les modifications du préparateur allemand poussent le V12 6,3 litres à double turbo à une puissance époustouflante de 887 ch (900 PS) et un couple de 153 mkg – des chiffres bien supérieurs à ceux du déjà non négligeable 6 litres de série de la S650 (621 ch/102 mkg). Il en résulte une vitesse maximale de plus de 250 km/h et un 0 à 100 km/h en tout juste 3,7 secondes – une vraie performance de supercar pour un véhicule pesant 2 845 kg. Le magazine allemand Auto Bild avait réuni une sélection de supercars pour des essais d'accélération où la Brabus 900, la plus lourdes des concurrentes, atteignit 340,2 km/h en tout juste 3 000 m. Mais les voitures de Brabus ont toujours offert bien plus que de simples moteurs gonflés et dans le cas de la S650, le préparateur a
