"Produced on a limited basis – and at a price of £370,000 – the colossal double-cab pickup started life as an even more rugged military version of the G 320 CDI conceived and engineered for the Australian army and in operation since 2011. This plush, leather-lined civilian version of the off-road vehicle has been conceived to appeal to some of Mercedes-Benz's most affluent clientele, and promises a vehicle without compromise..." – Autocar.

Introduced as long ago as 1979, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class 'Geländewagen' (cross-country vehicle) was the result of a joint venture with Steyr-Daimler-Puch of Austria, a firm with considerable experience in developing four-wheel-drive systems for off-road vehicles. Its purposeful appearance – fundamentally unchanged throughout its life – and engineering excellence has secured the G-Wagen cult status and earned it a reputation as one of the most coveted of classic 4x4s.

Hailed by Autocar as "the ultimate in go-anywhere civilian vehicles", offered here is one of the rarest G-Wagen derivatives, the Mercedes-Benz AMG G-63 6x6, which, as its name suggests, features drive to all of its six wheels. According to Mercedes, it represents "the last word in forward-thrusting power for the beaten track". The concept was initially developed for the Australian Army before emerging as a production model for the civilian market in 2013. The 6x6 features the G-63 AMG's 5.5-litre twin-turbo V-8 engine, portal axles, a pickup version of the G-Class body, and a luxurious interior. In 2015, having sold more than 100 units, Mercedes-Benz stopped production of the G-63 6x6, supposedly to maintain its exclusivity.

Built for the Middle Eastern market, the Mercedes-Benz AMG G-63 6x6 we offer was sold new to the current vendor and has been kept in storage since acquisition, with less than 200km on the odometer. Factory options include (although are not limited to):

• Electric sliding sunroof
• Media interface
• Rear entertainment
• DVD changer
• Harmon Kardon surround sound hi-fi system
• Heated front seats
• All-terrain tyres
• Leather-clad dashboard
• Speed limiter (160km/h)

Representing possibly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of these rare and super-exclusive luxury off-roaders, the vehicle is offered from storage and will require re-commissioning before further use.
