Fifth Gear - The Etiquette Around Purchasing An £800k Maybach

**A Unique Driving Experience**

You're younger than some of our customers, but you're still looking to own a car that's suitable for your needs. You want something to use for tooling around town, and maybe even two cars in total. With over 2.2 million dollars as the budget, we have an extensive range of options available. Our team at Great Lengths is happy to help you find the perfect vehicle that suits your requirements.

**Meeting the Mysterious Buyer**

One Middle Eastern buyer recently visited our showroom with a private jet. The purpose of his visit was to show us the leather seats in the Jet, which inspired him to choose a similar color and style for his future car. He even asked us to match any paint color he could think of, showcasing his unique taste and attention to detail.

**Introducing the Car**

Please welcome our latest model, a 5.5 twin turbo V12 engine car that boasts 550 brake horsepower and can reach 60 miles per hour in just 5.4 seconds. This supercar kind of power is perfect for those who want a vehicle that's both fast and practical. Weighing just under 3 tons, it's surprisingly lightweight and easy to handle.

**A Luxurious Interior**

As you step inside the car, you'll notice the luxurious interior that comes with all the high-tech features you could ask for. There are DVD players installed throughout the vehicle, storing champagne flutes when not in use. The interior is designed to be comfortable and convenient, complete with a clock, speedometer, and outside temperature display. And as an added touch, we've equipped the car with a fridge that's perfect for keeping drinks cool.

**Customizing Your Dream Car**

Our configurator allows you to see how your desired car and options look before making a purchase. This feature is especially useful when considering bespoke designs and unique features. For example, some of our Middle Eastern customers choose diamond inlays throughout the interior for added luxury. Our team can help you explore these customizations and create a truly one-of-a-kind vehicle.

**Diplomatic Needs**

We understand that sometimes, cars are not just for personal use but also serve as vehicles for diplomatic purposes. In such cases, our car features an intercom system between the driver and passenger, allowing for seamless communication. Additionally, there's a listening device available for external communication, perfect for diplomats who need to stay in touch with their staff without being seen.

**Black Tie Treatment**

You'd like your car to have a monotone exterior color, which we can easily accommodate with our black hide finish. We'll also add black windows and privacy glass for added security and discretion. And as an extra touch, we're happy to provide massaging seats that are standard on all our cars.

**The Waiting Game**

Once you've finalized your car's design, it takes around 10-12 weeks to be built due to the majority of the work being hand-finished. We recommend planning ahead and allowing sufficient time for the production process to ensure your dream car is ready when you are.
