    .............................................................
    It’s the review you’ve all been waiting for... the all-new Mercedes S-Class!
    It’s the car Mat’s been waiting for oh-so-long to test drive, but will it be worth the wait? Well in this in-depth review, he’ll be taking you over every inch of this new luxury limousine to see whether it has what it takes to compete with its predecessors.
    When it comes to performance, we already know it’s packing a number of petrol, diesel and hybrid options. For our UK viewers, our petrol options are currently topped off by the S500, which is a 3-litre straight-six turbo that can produce 435hp. But if you’re after more power, you’ll want to choose the hybrid S580e, where the 3-litre straight-six is joined by an electric motor to produce 510hp! But if we're being honest, we’re all waiting for the upcoming AMG S63, which will have a twin-turbo V8 and be able to put down over 600hp!
    So performance is all well and good, but let’s face it, you’re all probably more excited by the interior! But will it live up to its high expectations? And more importantly, just how good is the infotainment system on that HUGE centre console screen? Well, there’s only one way to find out… Stay right here for Mat’s all-new in-depth review!

      The best thing is that with the few parts that have failed, the replacement has been upgraded and never failed a second time.
      Their AHU diesel engine was a gem, on one of our cars it ran for more than 300.000 miles on it's well matched clutch. 90% of my driving was in London traffic. The car never broke down, perhaps because I am a chartered engineer and I maintained it myself.

    Choosing which S class I like most is: 4 and 6 (4 because my parents owned one a couple of decades ago and it was the only S we ever owned, it was one crazy car for it’s time), and then the 6th generation because it was pretty hard to outdo the 5th in design but they absolutely nailed it, when it first came out I couldn’t believe how good it looked.

    The exterior design looks much better in person. The ride and drive are both improved. The dual screen layout is a step backwards for this series both aesthetically and in functionality . The center touch touch screen takes your eye off of the road to operate while you search for a menu or try something as simple changing the radio channel. It also takes away from the comfort experience because the ergonomics of the touchscreen are just far enough away from the user to make the driver move his driving position to operate it. The center console takes away the armrest for your forearm as well as reduces the cup holders size and its made from plastic instead of wood.The touch screen stays covered in fingerprints and the fingerprint id is an extra step that gets annoying on a daily basis. The touch screen is also hard to see at times with the suns reflections. The new air vents sit high and away from the driver and cause a distracting reflection on the windshield. The ride,drive, and seats are outstanding , but the electronics make it very frustrating to operate.

    Even though i love them all 1st (W116) 2nd (W126) and the 4th (W220) are my favorites, the W116 and W126 because i love old cars, the Quality and Solid engineering on them is amazing and i love the styling and the overall feel of the cars, I like the W220 also because it's style and the elegance of the car is just so nice, also the technology for it's age was amazing.

    Matt Hello, my vote goes to the 6 Gen, its stunning. Of course when i was a kid that was the era of the Gen 1 and certainly when Gen 2 rolled around, it was super nice. But overall, even i did not like this current one much, except for the tech. Thank you so much for the content.
