It is well known that Mercedes had developed an 8 litre V16 for the W140 , in response to BMW , and had built 85 prototypes for the 800SEL ( wonder if any still exist ? ) .

However , this video suggests that they were planning to join two M120s together lengthwise to make a V24 for the Maybach .

What a superlative that might have been !
