That's a B12 5.7 limo.

The Sultan certainly had 2 x B12 5.7, the one at Maxsted's and no.13 which is mine. If there was a third one it would have been bought separately as Sytner bought the pair back from Singapore when the dealer there had got fed up with trying deliver 50 odd cars he was holding for the Sultan.

Personally I would not call his cars a "collection", it seems to me to be an indiscrimate series of purchases characterised only by his ability to spend money.

I wonder if he would trade is Benz S73 Touring for my 540i Touring. Seems like a fair trade to me - he has to cover shipping costs for both cars though or no deal...
