    Heresy Alert: Mercedes G- Wagen

    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!
