To be honest, I always thought that G wagons are overrated and pricey, but Ciro you really did change that narrative I had. My eyes are totally reborn when it comes to looking at this machine. Indeed a great car with a great history. Thanks man 🙌
I genuinely laughed out loud more than once. Your films are such high quality. And I love how u guys aren’t just reviewing cars anymore, but telling stories. Superb stuff
What an awesome review mate. To be honest you really are becoming one of South Africa’s greatest car reviewers ever?!!🧏🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️however, being grossly behind when it comes to money, I can’t help but say as much as this car is amazing it’s R3m! I can get me an A45 AMG s plus still have change to get a fully kitted Toyota Hilux Dakar model which I can dedicate to off-roading or if I wanna brag a special edition SR. Things are getting bad financially but for me it will be money well spent and I will still dice most people on road with my AMG 45. The role of genius is not to complicate the simple, but to simplify the complicated.
I've heard a few ignorant ones say "the G wagon is a Toyota Venture that went to private school." I say good luck to any Venture that tries to do what this beast can achieve.... actually, goodbye is more accurate.
Even though my wife said I don't have to buy a big bakkie or something to compensate for something else. She is happy with what I have to offer, I would still like to have one in my driveway 🇿🇦
Nope , because of their buying power that's the reason the car is still in production. They are basically the reason these type of cars are around otherwise merc would have stopped production which they almost did
Pity you didn't show us much of the interior, the back seats, and the "boot". I actually waited for that. No sweat, just curious. And on road performance?
Sorry guys, but Ickx won only 8 races, he has 25 podium finishes; if he had 25 wins he'd had taken Sir Stirling Moss' place (rip) as the greatest driver who never was an F1 Champion
Just a well built vehicle from Mercedes Benz I think of hummer would have stuck to the H1 model like how Mercedes Benz did with their G wagon then it would still be around
62k cars CIro you say ?! How many of them being unique to SA cars? You can discount VW because a VW is like having shoes in SA - everyone does - or gets murdered just to get their pair of shoes. Peugeot 407 Coupe - what a deal. Opel Corsa - any model - better than a Polo. G-wagon - no leaky Landy answer
Lol re-writing history, no the Shah asked Mercedes to design a miitary vehicle that could go anywhere, he owned substantial shares in Mercedes. In fact, the Shah himself who was behind the making of this vehicle. An important shareholder in Daimler-Benz, the Shah of Iran had a 25% stake in the company.
Not sure indestructible means unreliable. Only 300 000! its reliability seems to be questionable taking into account that this vehicle is never taken outdoors.
Overpriced Box comes to mind for me. On second thought, all German cars are overpriced. Prestige, Heritage and pedigree thats what you're paying for. Is it worth the dinheiro🤔. Nao!!

yes they quite worth every penny!
I still don't like it. Looks like a Toyota venture to me.
@@Malisti04 just made my day😂😂😂
@@TorqueDriven nope
Finally. A overdue review
One of my dream cars😍 The G wagon, a Porsche 911 Turbo S and a cool hot hatch would be my ultimate garage
67% of your garage is similar to mine... the G and the 911 (specifically the 992) turbo s. I'll replace the hot hatch with the S63.
You need a bakkie in that garage
Wow same, except for the hot hatch i would get a 5 series.
Instead of hot hatch I would get an old pickup truck
Dude you have one the best reviews online period.. Can't believe i took so long to start following you
The most honest review of a Gwagon i have everything seen, truely anybody can fall in love with this machine, love at first sight
I bet not many actually see an off road track in their lifetime considering the price.
@huriquaggo not this model
I genuinely laughed out loud more than once. Your films are such high quality. And I love how u guys aren’t just reviewing cars anymore, but telling stories. Superb stuff
One of the greatest cinematic shots and sound edits you've ever done. U killed the camera work . damn
Thanks so much! That means a lot to us. Thanks for watching
The king of SUVs

I agree with you 100%. also if i had ridiculous money yes but unfortunately we need to take in2 account "value for money"
Totally agree!🔥👌🏾
"I wish a car wouldn't make me feel so important" 🤣🤣
The drone shots ✊🏿
G wagon unstoppable, coolest off-road SUV. Am lucky to own 1999 modal
I love the G and your review has cemented my goal to buy one
What a great car. Unfortunately a dream that will never happen, especially at that price. Great review. Keep it rolling.
Get your skin in the game and come up with a plan.
Hahaha. That Mavericks intro! 🤣👏🏾👌🏾
Epic video! Love the off-road segment looks like too much fun! Where is this 'rally track' exactly, might be worth a visit for some shenanigans!
This was a very refreshing video, danko Ciro!!
It made my day. I've been waiting for this video for a long time.Well done guys!
I've heard a few ignorant ones say "the G wagon is a Toyota Venture that went to private school." I say good luck to any Venture that tries to do what this beast can achieve.... actually, goodbye is more accurate.
bring us the p-series review
I can't believe I'm blushing over a car review
thanks for the review
G Wagon! Such a sexy expensive aero dymanic, elegant, sensational..
SHOULD I SAY MORE! 😎❤️. we cant wait to review this beast!
Aero dynamic? As a brick maybe.
@@ElLebza or as a fridge😭
Aerodynamic as the pyramids of Giza
@@bigbadwolf9513 actually pyramids could be very aerodynamic if you put them on their side
The g wagon stronger than time edition is truly something amazing.
I was thoroughly impressed when I saw one, I will take that over the AMG any day
Come to Botswana brother! You're very welcome here
I hate it when someone wants to give their Suzuki Jimny a G-Wagon look. As a J-Wagon owner that’s pure blasphemy. 😤😁
Its the closest, us peasants will get to the G. I'd do it 😂
i see what you did there
The Jimny actually looks more like a GWagon, than a g wagon itself.
The Mercedes looks like a limousine, but the Jimny looks ready for anything.
Even though my wife said I don't have to buy a big bakkie or something to compensate for something else.
She is happy with what I have to offer, I would still like to have one in my driveway 🇿🇦
Nice vid keep the good work!
Great analogy for traction control 😂
Wait hold up let’s forget about the G for a second.... why are driving around with the party blower thingy.....?🤔
Long time coming 🙌
finally here!
They look sooooooo cool and unique I love them. The new landrover difender is cool too
Yet another great review 💯
Sorry, but the gangsters, pop stars and random celebrities totally ruined the image of the car for me.
True
Nope , because of their buying power that's the reason the car is still in production.
They are basically the reason these type of cars are around otherwise merc would have stopped production which they almost did
@Ronin Adrian and @warrenanthony you been going around UA-cam posting this rubbish the both of you . Get a life
@@John_code jeez calm down fanboy
@@jeff1595 what's there to be calm about ? Perhaps you need to address your perception or interpretation of statements instead
Guys this is great content! Keep it up! Did you use the DJI FPV to get some of the drone shots?
Why are cars in South Africa so expensive?
Finally,been waiting for the Big G
How did one of the best suvs used by military become so cool ??? =Hip-hop
I have this engine on the GLe its a peach, i often drop hatch backs from Germany. I would buy this car to keep
When will you guys do a review on the Toyota FJ Cruiser?
1min and 7sec an already... Hahahahaha "successful strip club owners" hahahaha... I get it. Keep doing your thing man. Loving it :-)
You are welcome to come to Botswana 🇧🇼 anytime 😎 👌
Lovely review... next time you get a G-Wagon take it rock-climbing (would love to see that)
Can you plz do a review/test drive on Audi a1 would really like it
Plot twist: a Hilux is the film vehicle
You don't know the difference between plot twist and reality
Hi where is this track? Whats the name?
Damn parashoot 👌
Mercesdes 🔥❤😍👑
That price though - no wonder there are not many of them around. Definitely not worth it even if you are filthy rich.
You are dead wrong! These things are quite common around JHB and certain areas in Pretoria.
@@namechecksout6300 I’ve seen a fair share in Durban too
Pity you didn't show us much of the interior, the back seats, and the "boot". I actually waited for that.
No sweat, just curious.
And on road performance?
"I just feel so important" 😅😂😂😂😂😂
Great review I need one
Where is the rally circuit outside Cape Town? What's the name of it?
Between range rover sport svr n the Mercedes-Benz G400d . Hm my choice 🤔 svr wen it comes to budgets
My god, it’s half the price in Canada
Please test-drive the new 2021 VW Golf R
The new redesigned g wagan is will be released soon
This is still new
@@ld9387 he mans the facelift I think
jeep trackhwak v8 video plizz 🙏 color black edition pilzzz 🙏🙏🙏
It's not about the car it's all about the driver
Sorry guys, but Ickx won only 8 races, he has 25 podium finishes; if he had 25 wins he'd had taken Sir Stirling Moss' place (rip) as the greatest driver who never was an F1 Champion
Anyone know where in Cape Town this track is please? Or the name of it?
I have only Tamiya 1/10 scale ..Wish I had Real one one day
The lag and refresh rate on the screens is truly disgusting for such an expensive car with end electronics,but hey it’s taken 40 years for a facelift
Very cute Toyota Venture
Not a word about the boot space 🙄
How much fual did you use and price
The best of the best!
so it needs better tyres at R2.3mil?
The video title and the thumbnail got me LMAO
"Strip club to Dakar"😂😂😅
nooooice!
You reviewed the g class with the wrong engine 💔😪
Just a well built vehicle from Mercedes Benz I think of hummer would have stuck to the H1 model like how Mercedes Benz did with their G wagon then it would still be around
Gelandewagen. One day, is one day.
You're welcome to elope to Botswana anytime!
Yes!!!
The best or Nothing
I found it a little offensive that you used the word "tons"
Super expensive and powerful Toyota Venture😝
Who would ever take a G Wagon off-road
Time stamps please 🙏
Legend
Nice video but I don’t see anything in that video that any 4 wheel drive sedan can’t do.

what an advert
Mercedes Benz AMG G550
With that price I can have the, Latest Toyota Hilux,Ford Ranger and maybe Ford Everest
But you still would not have a G wagon.
Jimmy Kimmel does amazing car reviews I see!
No one is ever going to drive their G Wagon offroad like that. I would have liked a more realistic review
so the owner took an uber home to joburg.
P series
300k Gelandewagens in the world. Auw.
Overpriced Box comes to mind for me.
On second thought, all German cars are overpriced. Prestige, Heritage and pedigree thats what you're paying for. Is it worth the dinheiro🤔. Nao!!
Reading comments - in my head, PLEASE USE AUTO 'DAMN' CORRECT!!! 😠
Why didn't you just use a G63?
They obviously never had one available to use.
I'm a bmw fan boy so I don't think I'll be buying this car
Er, but BMW doesn't have a G wagon competitor... So you wouldn't be letting the team down if you got this. No? 🤣
Imagine excluding things from life considerations due on a badge.
