@@MatWatsonCars But u werd on a Mercedes Track and he is next to u so it should be no problem. You only are not allowed to drive on official roads, right?
@@rudolfscheiner3303 have you watched the part of gran tour where james talks about the german lad who was asked what happens if you drive without a lisence 😂
If anyone wants to experience a Unimog, there is a Unimog Museum in Gaggenau Germany. Went there two years ago, the museum is in the old factory where the first ones were built; there is also an option to go on an obstacle course with one (not you driving of course). The guide was actually one of the workers who was in the factory from the very start, it was really a great experience.
Mat really cares about his viewers and is very genuine. Daniel from Mercedes was going through roads and Mat was keeping it real and said he wasn’t impressed and gave us proper paths for the vehicle.
Thanks for posting; I can understand your excitement! In ‘76 as an undergrad., I spend 6 months working in all departments of MB Gaggeäu where they manufactured the Unimog. At that time they were producing both original and new style of cabs. I spent a few days at their ‘test track’ with their chief test driver - he & MB’s track would have made your head explode compared with this post - happy days!

"The Mercedes is the most hardcore off-roader in the world" It isn't an off-roader though, it's a Unimog, originally intended to replace tractors. That would be like calling a military 8x8 a mere lorry. Technically true, but it doesn't tell the whole story. Where I live you usually see them used by councils to maintain roadside shrubbery in summer, hovering up leaves in the autumn and the same vehicles in winter clearing roads from snow and spraying salt, not going off-road ever.
But they can go Off-road as well if you want to. There's a good and long video about the Unimog in german on the Mercedes-Benz Channel here on YT. I don't know if they support english subtitles
@@seanhunt7750 Except it's also a train engine in you need it to be. There are two in one shunt models which can go on rails and will happily pull anything from gravel cars to subway cars. The "uni" in "unimog" stands for "universal". You can attack all kinds of stuff to it, for all kinds of tasks.
@@Shadow_Wraith Sure the German got the joke. Returning a serious answer - or an answer to a question not asked for - might just be the German sense of humour.
Immendingen! That was a Military training area until a few years ago. I was stationed in the barracks there for some weeks. Mercedes bought the barracks and the training area to build their test facilities there :D
I have always wanted to drive one , they are fairly rare in the UK, but a local tree surgeon has an old one and I have lusted over it many times. He told me nothing really stops them , superb video Matt you lunatic.
That’s why we love matt and theee best content creator awesome video 👌🏻🙌🏻 imagine Matt driving this thing Mercedes should give matt this thing for few weeks 🙌🏻
Mark we use unimogs on the railway for working on the overhead electric lines , it has 2 sets of train wheels it can drop down to run on the track and with a large cherry picker platform on the back
You are like a little boy, so funny and i am so jealous, i missed out on buying two U900's in the 90's becaue they were both single cab and we needed double cab and ended up with a S75 4x4 Dodge 50 (Renault 50 series ) which was like a smaller version of a unimog.
We had an old one of these (kind of like the orange one in the video at 00:47) and it was a beast to drive. Especially the lower gears. Comfort is not a word that comes to mind ! The new ones seem very different though.
This is just mat going “oh can we drive over that?” And when thats done its “oh what about that I’m not impressed yet” and “do you think we can get up there?”

Unimog is awesome, we have them in the army, ours I think they have 16 gears between high and low, not sure, it's been some years when I left the army.
“What’s the ground clearance?”
“18 gears”
Not gears man its diffs.🤣 lol
I wanted to know so bad ffs
I was so confused when he said that lol
I hope they cut it wrong and he actually did anwser the question asked :D
Don’t worry Mercedes, we’ll edit out that one secret and we’ll just act like that question was never asked. That ‘MOG probably has a development suspension with some special enhancements that haven’t been released to the public yet.
This thing has better suspension in its seat than my entire car.
its not seat, its mercedes

LOL
Mat: What's the ground clearance?
Daniel: Yes you can lock the diffs.
Mat: 🙄
Agahahhahaha i was expecting someone to comment about it 😂😂
1:41 is the time if anyone missed it
LoL. He couldn't have understood it because of the truck noise. Happens.
the correct answer would have been:
JA!
or:
sufficient.
a lot of gears
Matt: Says one thing
The Driver: starts talking about something else
Haha! But ya Can't really blame him though
Well he would have partially heard it because of the truck noise. It's way too much
@@anshulshah1219 besides, he' sounds German so English wouldn't be his first language anyway.
@@gihanprabash true
Engine noise and mask. Kudos to Matt not making a fuss out of it
You know the guy is German when he doesn’t want to “disturb” nature in his massive lorry tank 😂
It's called emotional intelligence and respect for all life .
@@Star-uk1kh do you have emotional intelligence for the poor plants and animals when you eat food?

protect ze nature!
i really agree.
some gardener is going to have to clean that up XP
@@Star-uk1kh Thank you human being. You are great.

Zis is not on ze protocol ve must follow ze orders very seriously.
Matt:Do you know the ground clearance on this?
Daniel:Yes, we can lock the differential and it has 18 gears...
This unimog might *crush* any other car in a drag race.
I crush everything in it!
@@MatWatsonCars lmao
If by drag race , you mean dragging something behind it.
In mud definitely!
Literally.
perfect Matt quote: "just weeds". Poor Jimny, I can see you will be tested to the limit. (as it should be :) )
‘Doesn’t want to hurt nature’. This guy was deff at the table when they made the decision to go to 4 cyclinder turbo in the AMG models
seems like a offroad test area; Can't just go beyond the company grounds on a plot which isn't theirs
When Mat does a German accent, it's this guy he's imitating for sure 😂
Can't wait to see these at the school run.

Did you even watch until the end?
@@agreatd Did you even understand the comment?

I like how the German guy said: six Hundert in 3:13 😂. A mix between german and eng
The swabian dialect made it for me 😂
Mat: do you ever get seasick from going over bumps?
German driver: so there is 4 tires
Mat really cares about his viewers and is very genuine. Daniel from Mercedes was going through roads and Mat was keeping it real and said he wasn’t impressed and gave us proper paths for the vehicle.
Yeah but Daniel is doing his job and has been told to stick to the path
The German guy talks exactly how mat impersonates them in other videos 😂
(only true fans know)
Driver: So Unimog, what terrain are you suited for?
Unimog: Yes

I agree it´s just a big truck with a beefed-up and elevated suspension. It didn´t take on anything particularly challenging.
Butt making sure the roads , are safe for others.
@@ratman19731 Absolutely. And it does that perfectly.

Matt: lets go over this big hill

4:07 matt makes a joke to the german dude and gets a serious answer.
That's Germans for you. No sense of humour.
@@Shadow_Wraith Sure the German got the joke. Returning a serious answer - or an answer to a question not asked for - might just be the German sense of humour.
the "joke" was not that funny or hilarious actually, just a curious fact so it was a bad example of german humour.
3:07 "Sixtausend Sixhundert" most german accent I've ever heard xD
Love it, keep up the good work Matt.
The poor things sounds like its crying, leave it alone it's getting on now 😂😂😂

Sorry MB but you gotta let that one go
Oh my god i saw that and felt a little bit of sick come in my mouth

Hi from Chile! Where the Atacama dessert is!! ✌🏼✌🏼🇨🇱
You make the best car video's Mr.Mat Watson and the picture is crazy.
I recall a Brabus Unimog around about 2008/9. Drag racing a Merc Actros and Scania with Ashville has given Mat a taste for trucks lol
The joy on Mat's face.
Loved the video!
Damn it Watson, I can’t even stand, let alone walk, after watching this roller coaster of a review
I always appreciate seeing the German and British working together. We know how it went when they didn't
yeah we actually like the british... and them us a little.:D
"Can we do something really extreme?!"
*goes over tiny stones*
"ARE WE GOING OVER THESE WOOOOOOOAAAH"
😂
I think the mog made those stones look tiny
Immendingen! That was a Military training area until a few years ago. I was stationed in the barracks there for some weeks. Mercedes bought the barracks and the training area to build their test facilities there :D
No one:
Mat: *cOmE oN mOg*
I have never seen anything more German than this guy! Love the way he said: "there's nature".
I love it. And Matts like a kid in a candy store just asking to push the Unimog to the limits. Absolutely love it
There is a UNIMOG camper parked up sometimes close to my house. The cab starts about 4ft plus off the floor. Truly incredible vehicles.
Lovin the VIDS Mat
Thanks
😀
🙏🏻!Your Most Very Welcome!🙏🏻
Four Ladybirds, 263 Woodlice, 2 Great black beetles and a solitary Common shrew thoroughly enjoyed the drive by.
A lot of people in the comment section can’t even begin to imagine how incredible Unimogs are! 💪
I have always wanted to drive one , they are fairly rare in the UK, but a local tree surgeon has an old one and I have lusted over it many times. He told me nothing really stops them , superb video Matt you lunatic.
Well even the standard looking ones are already beastly looking, can't imagine what this would look like in the flesh
I had so much fun watching this video 😂👍 felt like i was in there 😀 we need a gaming simulator like this mog...wld be so much fun...
That’s why we love matt and theee best content creator awesome video 👌🏻🙌🏻 imagine Matt driving this thing Mercedes should give matt this thing for few weeks 🙌🏻
