And perhaps that's is good a thing! This car is one of the most mysterious designs of the German luxury brand. At first sight it appears to be a lot of cut and paste work of a range of car models. This car was build especially for the Al Thani family and has been fitted with all the luxury.
They started with the S-class, and that means that there is a W222 hidden underneath. As we know by now, Galpin is responsible for this creation. Nowhere on the car you will be able to find a Mercedes logo, probably because it is not an original Daimler-design and they might wanted to avoid a possible lawsuit.
Anybody that is familiar with the world of Mercedes-Benz will recognize some of the elements of this car. We can see the classic Mercedes-grille and a set of SLS headlights on the front bumper. The air intakes remind us of the SLR-McLaren design and the lines of the car are a tribute to the legendary 600.
The owners are keeping the information of this car close to their vest since there is not a whole lot of information available on the internet. And because of that we don't have a lot to say about the specifications. Whether we like the design or not, it doesn't get more exclusive and unusual than this! And it is for sure more exclusive than a Mercedes-Maybach.
