Dear readers, I apologize for my somewhat diminutive lack of articles lately, I've been swamped the last few days with work from "the other job" as well as a few behind the scenes maintenance tasks with this site. By week's end, all will be well with the world, and I will be able to return to my regular number of postings, I promise.

Despite the lack of posting, there really wasn't much Mercedes news making headlines today, although for the second day in a row the guys over at - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER have found an equisite Mercedes oddity.

The lucky winner this time is a station wagon conversion for the W220 Mercedes S-Class, which, although slightly better than the Mercedes MP3 player, still won't be gracing my driveway anytime soon.

The vehicle in question comes from the lovely city of Vienna, Austria, and to put it simply, is big, green, and slightly "Volvo-esque" in the rear. Then again, as a former Volvo owner I tend to associate all station wagons with Volvo, so my vision may be somewhat skewed.

As they always say, a picture's worth a thousand words, and in addition to the ones above and below, you can find more photos of the W220 station wagon by clicking - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

Actually I disagree Artist, I would buy one for a start - there would be a big market for it I'm sure - the S class is a good practical size, this would be an excellent vehicle for people like me who have dogs etc..

Too bad it look's terrible in the rear.
I've actually seen pictures of W140 estates at the AMG factory, is this something AMG is willing to do in-house?

Well I don't think it looks bad - better than most wagons I think.

i like it. A truly good looking wagon. BTW, the rear lights, could look a bit better...

I think it loos good too and sure it would sell even more than the E class version. The rear could use some work or even a better detail, but it looks very classy too me.
