That's a base model merc which is stretched by some Desi Coachbuilder for sure..

Gentlemen, that is not a desi stretch Merc with a Bentley badge

It is stretched by Binz in Germany, authorised by Mercedes. It belongs to a well known Poona based family.

It is the famour car pune collector parsi family with many car on this forum. The older gentlmen is a rear seat habbitual sleeper. Saw him once in heavy south mumbai traffic sleeping similarly in a maroon rolls royce sliver spirit 15 year ago! The car dome lights as well!! Some habbits die hard

If it's the famous car collector's car, then why the Bentley and E63 badge?

quickdraw · 16th March 2009, 23:07

Its definately not Poonawalla's car. His limo is silver AFAIR (*remember

)

Dunno about the E63 badge..but thats no Bentley badge for sure it rather is Binz logo..

hkanitkar · 17th March 2009, 03:18

Going by the reg. series it seems to be Adar Poonawala's car. The older gen. Limo is owned by Yohan Poonawala.

@sleeping in the back seat - my dad does it all the time - even in the Maruti 800 !

This is quite an old car. I remember seeing it in Koregaon park way back in the 90's.

Although the stretched W211 is an authentic Binz job the E63 badge seems like a fake becasue this car does not have any of the AMG claddings (bumpers/sideskirts etc) and even if those were taken of because of the stretch job ( I would make sure they were back on) the hubcap wheels are typical of the Binz/Trasco jobs where a standard basic trim car is taken and strected say a E320 or something but E 63 this car doe not seem to be.

yatinchoubal · 18th March 2009, 13:52

I definelty think, that its an aftermarket job, done on that car.
