The Appeal

The Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG represents the pinnacle of the G-Class range, combining the iconic boxy styling of the G-Wagon with AMG's performance credentials. This particular 2012 example features the 5.5L V8 Bi-Turbo engine and a comprehensive specification that includes the rare and expensive full carbon AMG Designo package.

Having had just one former registered keeper from new (in Germany, before the current Dutch owner), this example has been cherished. The vehicle has been kept in a warm, dry garage year-round and only driven in fair weather, resulting in a top-end luxury SUV that's ready and waiting for its lucky new owner.

Accompanied by a documented service history and a wealth of high-end options including full alcantara trim and carbon fibre accents, this G63 AMG is an excellent prospect - not one to miss.

The Condition

Bodywork is in good order
Paintwork still carries a fine lustre
Always stored in a garage under a protective cover
Original AMG alloy wheels in good condition
Nearly new Hankook G-Class specific tyres fitted
Removable tow hitch present but reportedly never used

The blocky lines of the G63 are unmistakable, and in this handsome example, really are beautifully kept. This is a solid, well-presented off-roader with all of its original badges and branding present and correct, with nicely kept alloys, a good strong chassis and good paintwork.

Interior appears in good condition for its age
Full Designo specification with alcantara headlining, dashboard sides, seat mounting trim, and boot headlining and sides
Unique carbon fibre interior package (a €4,500 option when new) with extensive carbon trim throughout
Seat heating and cooling
Reverse camera system
Adaptive cruise control
Memory seats

With its handsome Designo spec, the interior of this G-Wagon is just as well-kept and luxuriant as the bodywork surrounding it. Full leather seats, carbon fibre interior fitting and Alcantara headlining all set a very impressive vibe - ringed with clean, legible instruments and a well-presented dashboard.

The Mechanics

5.5L V8 Bi-Turbo engine
AMG Speedshift Plus 7G-TRONIC seven-speed automatic transmission
Original AMG exhaust system
The vendor states the vehicle drives, brakes and shifts without issue
Reported to be regularly serviced with all maintenance performed on schedule

That 5.5-litre bi-turbo is the stuff of legend, and propels this into high-performance, capable machinery. The 7-speed transmission is, of course, the perfect marriage, and we understand that this example is driving well, with a history of regular servicing reported by the vendor.
