"Nein, nein, nein! Kartoffelkopf!" Chris, you are priceless as always.

A guy in my Town in Germany has one 4x4 Squared and one normal G500 and the Squared one is always dirty and full of mud. So this guy knows how to appreciate the Off-road-Capability.

silenteagle I remember when James May said something similar on one of the episodes.

[@sunrisesetsflash]

yes about the M6 Grancoupe xD

[@ugwunnaodinye8657]

flintenFLORI no it was about the same car

[@Aliasify]

Ugwunna Odinye no it wasn't it was about the M6 on the Australian episode. He never drove this car on TG, hence CH doing so now.

[@ugwunnaodinye8657]

+Aliasify It was brought up during the news segment on TG where they talk about cars and James said it then

[@akccc434]

The biggest rock this G-Wagen will ever encounter in real life is a pebble, but it looks amazing regardless!

[@Stryke607]

well ... the G-Klasse is still the go-to model if you need an Offroader that is not a Range Rover and not from the other side of the pont. I believe at least some people will actually use it for offroading.

[@mohammadadeel5545]

Land Rover Defender or a Jeep Wrangler are the go to models for off roading imo.

[@justinimel6151]

The next would be Toyota Land Cruisers. G-Classes are just for looks. Too expensive to scratch and dent.

[@Shakshuka69]

Akcc C I beg to differ. Why would someone buy a slower, more expensive, off road tuned, non-AMG version of the G Wagon to do anything but off road it? The badge whores would surely go for the G63 or the G65. The urban folk would prefer the bigger wheels and low profile tires.

[@t-bone9239]

people who take a G class offroad will take the G class professional. Look at Africa, Australia you will find Gs thar have seen more rocks than streets

Chris could literally just do top gear all by himself and would just be as good, if not better

[@charliedickinson8218]

Top gear, keep the Chris Harris videos coming and we'll keep watching. He's the best in the buisness

[@asdfghjklkjhgfdsa69]

Although I've felt he's kind of had to dumb down a bit for TV. There's something a little bit off.

[@IEATU95]

I miss when he did Chris Harris on cars.

Probably likes his Top Gear job alot ,and is just behaving accordingly , still one of best though even if he's dumbed down a little

[@joshuapascu1758]

well one thing is for sure,top gear will never be the same without the old crew,but...i have full faith in chris harris making the best out of our beloved top gear.

[@BradChadley]

Joshua Pascu I know Im a year late, but I feel many of Chris' reviews are more focused on the cars themselves and are often better than what the crew themselves did in terms of reviewing the car. However, in terms of antics and comedy, that trio will obviously never be beaten

[@howardmei9336]

The ending of the video should be: boy does it make the owner of the gas station smile.

[@spinal_capped]

It's incredible to me that every review of the 4x4^2 features it driving on its absurdly out-of-place, yet standard, street wheel+tyre package. I haven't seen one reviewer and/or owner driving one on its proper "optional" (i.e. NECESSARY) 18-inch beadlock wheels wrapped in 37-inch mud terrains!! You can even adjust tire pressure on the fly like a gotdamn Humvee!! I'd have to do something about the low-hanging regulatory rear bumper, too...

[@achintyaaatreya]

[@marshallemmett3313]

Wonderfully absurd is an excellent descriptor for this kind of car. Yes, it seems wonderful (based on this video as I haven't and most likely will not experience the G 500 4x4^2), but absolutely ridiculous being roughly $300,000. I'd be curious to see the off road capabilities of this (the G 500 4x4^2) and a bone stock Land Rover Discovery or even the top of the line Land Rover Discovery. Just as a comparison if only because I know a bone stock Disco isn't $300,000+ and I'm fairly confident a top of the line Disco also doesn't come close to $300,000+. Anywho... love the videos! And I know the first season of Top Gear wasn't super well received, but I'll always be a viewer because I love me cars. Love from Florida, Marshall

[@graemearmstead9237]

In 2o11 they re released the G Wagon in Australia. Mercedes took a fleet of 7 along the Canning Stock route a drive undertaken by lots of mums and dads in their Landcruisers and Patrols. Sadly for Mercedes 6 of the 7 broke down and needed to have parts flown in so they could get out of the desert. Understandably they don't sell a lot of them in Australia except to the odd urban poseur.
