Mystery driver spotted in Ireland with rare €500K limo-have you seen it?

By Kim O’Leary

An Irish driver is cruising down the road in style these days with their brand new 2017 Mercedes- Maybach limousine, a favourite of celebrities with an asking price of €500,000.

The anonymous driver of the S-Class model purchased it in recent weeks and could spend up to €250,000 on extras, as reported by the Sunday Independent.

In Ireland there have only ever been three Irish Maybach owners; Coolmore stud owner John Magnier and property developer Johnny Ronan are both Maybach owners, while singer Enya has a chauffeur to drive her limosuine.

There is speculation that UFC fighter Conor McGregor has added the car to his eye-watering luxury collection, which includes a BMW i8, Mercedes-Benz S-Coupe, Rolls-Royce, Range Rover, Lamborghini and Cadillac Escalade.

Whoever the mystery Irish owner is, they can enjoy the luxury touches of an exclusive in-car Maybach perfume called 'agarwood' and two silver-plated champagne flutes.

The car also comes with a panoramic sliding sunroof - which claims to create the feel of open-top motoring even when the roof is closed; electric sun blinds, ambient lighting around its chrome-plated speakers, and two vanity mirrors in the rear, clad in diamond-quilted leather. The owner even has the option of a minibar stocked with goodies.

Maybachs are popular in the showbiz world, with famous owners including Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, Ja Rule, Sean “P.Diddy”Combs, 50 Cent and Samuel L Jackson.
