Using a special simulator that shows ‘real life’ situations, it hopes to demonstrate to drivers the benefits of the Electronic Stability Program (ESP). A three-minute simulator ride explains how the technology works and the way in which it helps to avoid accidents.

Based on the firm"s SL600 convertible, it has a twin-turbocharged 6.3-litre V12 engine, giving 730bhp and peak torque of 1,320Nm. That"s enough to cover 0-62mph in four seconds and 0-190mph in half a minute.
Top speed is "limited" to 217mph. To cope with the extra performance, the suspension has been lowered by 15mm and bigger brakes and tyres fitted. A special bodykit will improve handling and stability.
Inside, the SV12 has additional carbon fibre and leather trim. Expect to pay around ÷£200,000 to get your hands on one.
