Ex-Jay Kay, a very rare, top-of-the-range V8 diesel with 250 BHP.
Top of the range G400 CDi V8 SWB Ex-petrolhead and musician Jay Kay One of only 828 produced, all in left-hand drive £8,500 engine overhaul at 'G-Wagen' in Reading only 3,000 miles ago Revered and reviled in equal measure, the G-Wagen is one of those vehicles that seem to polarise opinions.
Ugly and boxy to some, it is the most capable and best-engineered 4x4 of all time to others.
However, the facts speak for themselves: despite having a cripplingly high price tag right from its launch in 1979, the G-Wagen has won such a loyal fan base that it remains in production to this day, making it the longest running model in Mercedes history.
Available with a range of engines in both long and short wheelbase formats, its trump card was a set of three fully locking differentials, controlled by a profusion of knobs and levers, that gave it the ability to cross even the worst terrain that Planet Earth could throw at it.
