Maybach Motorenbau was a manufacturer founded in 1909 by Wilhelm Maybach and his son. In 1960, Maybach was acquired by Daimler-Benz and still remains as a luxury brand of Mercedes-Benz. Daimler produced an ultra-luxury edition of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class under the Maybach brand thus creating an even more magnificent vehicle and offering unrivalled luxury and specification. To promote the new Maybach line, Mercedes-Benz engaged with figures such as Maybach heir, Ulrich Schmid-Maybach together with golfer Nick Faldo to serve as brand ambassadors. When commissioning a vehicle, Maybach would, upon request, offer a huge array of standard and non-standard specification; as long as it was safe, practical and ethical, it could be supplied. The last Maybach vehicle was manufactured in December 2012 although Mercedes-Benz have recently re-instated the name on the high-end S-Class which is known as a Mercedes Maybach. Registered new on 2nd August 2005 this superb looking example is presented in Himalayan Grey paintwork over a Barrier Reef Red leather and walnut trim interior. The coachwork is in excellent condition only showing light stone chips to the front, and the wheels and engine bay present very well. Inside is pure luxury with leather and walnut trim in abundance. The vendor reports that the Maybach drives without issue and offers a beautiful smooth ride, although it should be noted that the factory Sat Nav system is currently not working. Showing 93, 500 miles on the odometer the Maybach comes complete with an extensive service history, largely from Mercedes main dealers including its most recent service by Mercedes Sheffield in September 2022 at 90, 600. Various sundry bills are also included, previous MoT records, the current UK registration document and an MoT valid until April 2024. Interested parties should note that the Maybach will be freshly MoT'd prior to auction and will be valid until 2025. Consignor Daniel Godin
