Mercedes-Benz G 550

This has been repeated ad nauseum, but let there be no doubt: the G-Class is mainly a prestige item for drivers who like to strut their stuff on posh urban boulevards.

Look beyond the status stuff and the Silver Star stuff and the luxury-vehicle stuff. Beyond its brand image, the G 550 is first and foremost a formidable 4x4 that's not afraid to venture into difficult terrain... as long as the owner isn’t bothered by the scratches, bumps and bruises their luxury vehicle might suffer along the way.
