We absolutely love this vehicle. It was collected from Brunswick, GA only a few days ago and driven the 300 miles back to our showroom in Kissimmee, FL (the back roads!).
This G Wagon is an absolutely superb drive, customs commented that it was one of the few vehicles that they never had to jump start once after coming over on a boat for two weeks with no gas and a disconnected battery, it starts first time, every time.
The drive is great, very responsive steering and surprisingly light to steer. Gear changes are smooth and feel tight. The visibility is excellent due to the huge rear windows. The 2.3 gas engine never feels underpowered and zips along nicely at a cruising speed of around 70 mph.
This G Wagon is a real head turner. It has spent 4 hours in our workshop being valeted and looks stunning. A brilliant red combined with black arches and trims really pop.
We would say that this is an entry level vehicle, for someone who loves and appreciates the G Wagon and wants something special. I have personally driven the vehicle and find the drive excellent, my wife drove it for 5 hours back from Brunswick and didn’t want to get out at the other end. It is the kind of vehicle that you quickly grow attached to and will want to tinker with it.
The reason we call this an entry level vehicle is that there are minor things that an enthusiast would possibly want to consider, although it is stunning as it is. There are some cosmetic jobs that could be done which would only improve the vehicle. There are areas where the paint is flaking, not through rust, just old paint. If this G Wagon was to be resprayed it would soon look like the $50,000 plus vehicles you see up for sale. The interior is in great condition, the only flaw is the tear in the drivers seat, the kind that comes from climbing up into the vehicle and squashing down the edge of the seat, this has been stitched and repaired as you can see in the photo, but would benefit from being removed and repaired.
The best thing is that the bones of this G Wagon are superb, the chassis is in excellent condition as is the running gear. We do not import any vehicles that do not pass our stringent tests in the UK and that have not been ‘pre loved’ by their owners. We ensure that all of our vehicles have great bones, cosmetics can be done to taste, but you have a superb foundation.
If this vehicle captures your attention as it did ours when we saw it for sale by an elderly gentleman owner in the UK, then please get in touch asap using our contact form or alternatively give us a call.

New details emerge on forthcoming Mercedes-Benz SLC
Sat, 02 Feb 2013Last we heard, the Mercedes-Benz SLC had been put on indefinite hold, but now Car Magazine is reporting that the Porsche 911-fighting "Baby SLS" coupe could be on sale by 2015. Riding on a modified SLS AMG chassis, the smaller and lighter SLC could be priced in the sub-$100,000 price bracket.
We'd already heard that the new car would feature conventional doors (instead of SLS-like gullwing doors), but this report focuses on some of the possible powertrains Mercedes-Benz is likely to use. At launch, the SLC could offer a pair of V8-powered models - a 485-horsepower SLC and a 585-hp SLC S - both being powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8. About a year after launch, a new V6 model could emerge giving the SLC an estimated 333 horsepower and its lowest price point.
It also sounds like the car's name hasn't been completely finalized as some people within Mercedes are favoring a return of the SLR name.
Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites
Sun, Jan 7 2024Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.
Experience the New York Auto Show by drone
Fri, Apr 10 2015The Autoblog team recently returned from wildly running around the Javits Center to cover all the news and debuts at the New York Auto Show. Sometimes, it's nice to take a more serene look at the exhibition floor, though, and the event's organizers are providing that exact opportunity by flying a drone through the hall. Combined with the down-tempo music, this clip feels like a form of automotive meditation. If you're going to miss the show in the Big Apple, the drone also provides a good overview at the exhibition floor, especially at the stands from Lexus, Buick, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and BMW. Plus, it's a fun way to see some vehicles from a completely different angle than they ever appear on the road.
