2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class AMG G63

The AMG G63 occupies a peculiar and compelling niche: a vehicle that started life as a Cold War military utility truck and evolved into one of the most theatrically over-engineered performance SUVs available. This 2024 example has covered just 9,157 miles, making it effectively new. The MANUFAKTUR Olive Metallic paintwork is a bespoke factory-order finish — an unusual and distinctive choice that immediately marks this out from the standard black or silver configurations that dominate the road.

Specification is strong throughout. The MANUFAKTUR package brings two-tone Saddle Brown-Black Nappa leather throughout the cabin, while MULTIBEAM LED headlights and the GUARD 360 Vehicle Protection Plus system with 360-degree cameras round out a well-optioned build. Under the bonnet, the 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 produces 577bhp and a substantial 850lb-ft of torque, with Mercedes quoting 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds and a governed top speed of 137mph.

For a vehicle weighing well over two tonnes that retains genuine off-road geometry, the performance figures remain absurd in the best sense. This is a nearly new example with a desirable bespoke colour, fresh on a 74-plate.
