From WIKIPEDIA:

The Mercedes-Benz 600 was an ultra-luxury sedan offered in several variants worldwide. Introduced in September 1963.

Generally, the short-wheel-base (SWB) 600 models were designed to be owner-driven; the long-wheel-base (LWB) 600, often incorporating a central divider with power window, was intended as chauffeur-driven.

The 600's great size, weight, and numerous hydraulically driven amenities required more power than Mercedes' largest engine at that time, the 6-cylinder 300, could produce. A new V8 with more than twice the capacity was developed, the 6.3L "M100". It featured single overhead camshafts (SOHC) and Bosch mechanical fuel injection.

The 600's complex 150-bar (2,176psi) hydraulic pressure system powered the automobile's windows, seats, sun-roof, boot lid, and automatically closing doors. Adjustable air suspension delivered excellent ride quality and sure handling over any road surface.[4]

In 1967 the M-100 engine and hydraulics were fitted to the much smaller but still substantial 300SEL 6.3, creating the world's fastest four-door sedan. Upon the introduction of the W116 chassis, a larger 6.9 liter version of M-100 was installed in the Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9.

Famous owners of the 600 have included the Pope and celebrities such as Coco Chanel, Hugh Hefner, Elizabeth Taylor, John Lennon, George Harrison, Karen Carpenter, Jay Kay,[5] Aristotle Onassis, Jack Nicholson, Simon Spies, Ronnie Wood, Bob Jane, Frank Packer, Elvis Presley, Rowan Atkinson, Jay Leno and Jeremy Clarkson.
