Destined for the black top only with those silly wheel/tyres.

They are just an expensive ugly looking defender wanna-be.
Well the G wagen has been around longer than the Defender and even the 110 - like LR their heritage goes back a long way - to the early 50s.
Notice the ADR fail on exhaust tail-pipe location . ADR states exhaust must exit rear of opening windows / doors. ..... Try getting that past an engineer.
It seems that Euro Certification gives exemption to ADR's , its also how the Iveco 4x4 is allowed on the roads as theres is no way known the brakes comply with ADR's .

...But the Wagon version is nowhere to be seen! Despite all the launch hoohaa. It's the Wagon I want to see. Theoretically it's the biggest competitor to next Defender.
Oh I see, I thought 'wagon' was a typo!Quote:

For tough guys: the G 350 d Professional. - Mercedes-Benz
Was watching a G-Wagon review recently on YouTube and they mentioned that the new 2018 model has been slightly lengthened and widened. Biggest change for a long time.
Is the Professional still a front live axle?
Looking at the up market '18 versions they've gone wishbone front at the least.
