£100K G wagen

Charles Of Windsor : Mercedes-Benz G Class G55 Amg Lhd

Colour?

I quite like it

I'm always amazed at the money these make.

Not sure about the colour but g wagons are all good!

 

[trainer]

cool wagon.

 

[martyz]

nice,but not price.

Colour is lovely, I wish they offered something similar to this shade across the range rather than a £3000 designo option (which I now think has been discontinued).

 

[W210 Fan]

in all the years of looking at G wagons and being on the line (Magna Styer used to make something we took off of them when they were broken up and we were picking up some drawings) I have never seen a G in that colour!

Personally I think it is bl##dy awful. And I don't just mean the colour, the whole concept is bizarre to me and the price is staggering. Clearly I'll never be a style consultant to an over-paid premiership footballer, I assume this is the target audience.
Each to their own though.

Hideous. Wood colour clashes terribly with the paint and stands out horribly from the dull gloomy interior...

I second that

they don't sell at these prices and the depreciation is horrific, many of the new RHD models are still looking for a home and this is inspite of heavy discounting. I think they are great vehicles but they are not sports cars or pimp mobiles.

One hundred thousand pounds?! I don't know why people like this piece of shyte,hideous IMO...

 

[V12]

Don't personally like the colours of this one, but driving a G55 is insane. It doesn't feel as quick as you would expect, perhaps because you are so far from the ground? For the weight and aerodynamics it is somewhat of a miracle.
I only had about 30 minutes in one, but however mad the concept is, it somehow makes sense once you're behind the wheel.

£100K would get you a used C63, a decent Range Rover, insurance and a Caribbean holiday.

 

[dvb247]

Hideous in every way, I just don't get this old fashioned looking excuse for a 4x4, it's bordering on offensive, who buys cars like these, I know it's all about peoples taste but please, really... would anyone buy one of these even at 1k????

5th gear team test a few weeks back, went down like a lead fart as I recall????

Despite the age of the design and the extortionate price I see loads of new G Wagens around the country.

There were loads at MercedesBenz World at Brooklands the other day.

If I found £125k down the back of the sofa I'd have a G55 in a flash

Err...... no. Llittle Jonny Smith was on too much Red Bull - as were the other two.
The G55 scored an impressive and unbeliveable 21 out of 30 - not even worth half that score
