Lovely...a very reliable car

These 4Matic R Classes look stunning in silver or black.

Well it's hardly a looker, looks bloated to me. But nice find there isn't one in Delhi.

manikjeet · 1st April 2007, 00:37

Seen one in chadigarh to white colour. but was a lower model i think it was standing infront of a dairy for a hour

Its a Minivan. I am probably going to get flamed for this because I have friends that are convinced that this is a "SUV" since MBUSA advertises it that way and we always have arguments on this. But I'll say this... .its probably one of the most comfortable MB's on the planet this side of the Maybach. I have sat in the second row and can attest to that.

Its not really a SUV or MPV..but its a cross-over..But its true that its one the most comfortable Mercs..my B-I-L owns one at UK

CaliAtenza · 2nd April 2007, 12:52

i dunno, it looks kind wierd...but its a merc so it should be nice

TRANSAM · 2nd April 2007, 16:55

nice find in Mumbai Klaus 17...this SUV/MINIVAN is seriously hard to come by, suprisingly some braveheart has bought it to India!!

abdul 65 amg · 2nd April 2007, 17:10

I guess is the first R Class in India.How much does it cost?1 crore or less?

It is very nice car.A class in its own

Hi guys,

Spotted a Merc R class - light champagne colour - on BMCC road yesterday. Sadly, i did not get time to get any pics. Also, couldn't see if the car was registered or on test as he just zoomed away, but my guess is it was here for homologation.

Any news on R class being launched in India ????
