Why does Merc not sell these in SA?

You can pick up old ones in SA. But the new AMG ones are very nice, pity we can't get them here except as special imports.

 

[gboy]

i think the best you are going to get here is the GL range.

I do know someone who has recently ordered the new Unimog (spelling) special import, now that is something

I'm not looking to buy, just wondering as they are bloody good 4x4 vehicles.

Best called the "Ellendewagen" - due to its endless problems

As far as I know, you can ask for one at any Merc dealership.
But you have to be wiling to pay extra for it. But Merc will look after you regarding services and maintenance.

BIG BRUISER: Merc's latest Geländewagen sports a five-litre V8 motor and will go anywhere - but two snags. Only 12 are being imported this year and, well, they've not got the looks of the competition.
