Did you see the yuppified G-Wagen on Top gear last night? Pretty awesome.

I like G-Wagens very much and would love a more sedate diesel version if the worst happened and Defenders became extinct.

I caught TopGear last night as well. Yes - the Gelandewagen G55 with the AMG V8 in it is pretty awesome. Pity that they had to lower it though.

What caught my eye was the Atom. Now - THAT was awesome!

That was a great show last night and the G - Wagon dose look a bit top heavy but an awesome machine.

I would just like to take the Disco driving in that Quarry that they tested on the show. https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ https://www.aulro.com/afvb/
