The Appeal

Starting life as an independent tuning company specialising in Mercedes-Benz, AMG has since been absorbed into the brand and to see its badge on a car usually means there's some serious performance lurking under the bonnet.

Even the off-road G-Wagon gets the AMG treatment. This 2008 example is the G55 AMG with a 5.5-litre V8 sending 493 horsepower to all four wheels. If the idea of a full-size SUV that can readily overtake a sports car as clime a mountain, this is the vehicle for you.

With all duties and VAT reportedly paid following import to the Netherlands, this G55 AMG is ready for its next owner and EU registration.
