2014 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG Brabus B63S-700 Widestar
Chassis no. WDB4532721X214921

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.

For 1991 a revised (Type 463) chassis was introduced, incorporating the very latest in off-road traction technology in the form of three electronically engaged differentials in addition to anti-lock brakes. There have been countless updates to the Type 463 since then and a host of special variants. One of the final models released before production of the Type 463 ceased in 2018, the G 63 was powered by AMG's 5.5-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine developing 537bhp, which was delivered to the ground via AMG's Speedshift Plus 7G‑tronic automatic transmission. Boasting high ground clearance and long-travel suspension, the AMG G 63 offered greater off-road capability than most customers would ever need in an immensely stylish conveyance with not inconsiderable on-the-road presence. Like the entire model series, the G 63 AMG was produced in Graz, primarily in the factory's hand-finishing section.

Representing possibly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of these rare and super-exclusive luxury 4x4s, this G 63 was first registered on 1st July 2014 and has had one owner from new. This particular car incorporates the following highly desirable performance upgrades from the renowned German Mercedes-Benz tuning specialist, Brabus: Brabus Widestar Conversion; Brabus 700 engine – two larger Brabus turbochargers with larger compressor unit, free-flow metal catalysts, gold heat reflection system for intakes and charge-air tubes; Brabus ECU; Brabus ride control; Brabus valve control sports exhaust system; Brabus 'Race' shift paddles; Brabus illuminated tread plates; Brabus monoblock 'R' 23" forged wheels; Brabus headlights finished in black.

Last MoT'd in November 2018 (at 3,399 miles) this exciting luxury off-roader is offered with a V5C Registration Certificate. It should be noted that the current private registration is being retained.
