    Changed my mind today. Something along the lines of the Cadillac Fleetwood: body-on frame, midsize V8, good ride, tuned for quiet, comfortable rolling. Not lacking in feature content, it's also not out to be on the technological forefront.

    I would seriously consider the upcoming XJ (X351). On paper, the specifications are damn good. If money no problem, then the Mulsanne, 750 Nm of torque and that 2200W Naim system ought to please any sybarite
    A bad day at the race track beats a good day at the office any time.

    The X308's are all-time favs of mine. The AJ V8 in it was an impressive piece of kit as well - drove an x350 with one and it MOVED while getting 23mpg. That is, until the transmission crapped out at 700 miles, but then again, the rental car agency had to take care of that one

    The Rolls Royce Ghost and the new Alpina B7. The B7 is one of my very favourite cars because of it's supreme luxury, huge speed and best of all, a great image. A £95k, 2 ton, 21 inch rim, 500 bhp, 200mph super limo.

    Very hard question...because i'm not the biggest fan of today's full size luxurys. They just lack this aura of arrogance the cars of the 50s/ 60s had

    Otherwise, an AMG S-Class would do for me. But my favourite full size luxury of all time is the '69 Opel Diplomat with the 5.4 Chevy engine... that car was a hit in the face for everybody who liked understatement (which means pretty much every german at that time )

    There is now another serious contender. The new Jaguar XJSS, the top spec version of the superb new XJ. IT comes in long and short wheelbase versions. It's also great to drive I hear with great control and surprising agility.
    Check it out.

    I think that right now, after the Mulsanne and the big Maser, Jags probably the third contender. And the one that's the most affordable.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Maybach S62 - ridiculous practicality but when money is no object? Then that back lounging area would be priceless.

    Ridiculous practicality as long as you live in a city where the normal size for a parking space is about 6 meters The maybach is simply too big for most european citys. Parking one in London would be a nightmare

    I never knew Audi's were as fast as they were beautiful till I watched Transporter...which ever movie version where he drove the Audi A8 and I think it had the W12 engine. I hope one day I can afford that car !

    you'd have to go for the Merc, they are the symbol of luxury, especially with the s-class, why do you think every government in the world owns one?
