Just thought i'd get it to your notice. A G55 AMG is also a G wagon, so no harm done if the picture of the G55 AMG is posted here.

The first official G55 AMG has reached plant, its black & expect that its to Mumbai. Information from a reliable source, but not sure about where its heading to!

Kerala - Year (20)11- A G300....

Dear Hanmust,

Apologies for posting this here, but it seems your mailbox is overloaded.

First and foremost my belated compliments to your beauty. It really is a very fine piece of machinery. I too am an admirer of G-Wagen and have been on the lookout for quite some time. I am so sorry to bother you over this, but would really appreciate if you can throw me some leads or if you are aware of one on sale somewhere (preferably the short wheel base one, just like yours

.

Thanks in anticipation and looking forward to hearing from you very soon. Please PM me at your convenience.

There is an '88 SWB G Wagen in Jaipur; belongs to someone I know. I think it's still with him.

Long time no see! Hoping that all the G-Wagens discussed in this thread are doing fine.

Saw a slightly buggered up G-Wagen today. Was a KA registered maroon color 4 door 300GD with a lot of AMG stickers.

I don't think it was a Trax/Bolero modified G-Wagen. Will try and get some pics if I see it again.

Is this the car you are talking about? Also, there is/was one more darker maroonish brown old GWagen in BLR. Had pics but can't seem to find it.

Hello Han / A.K,

No, it isn't the red one. It's a dark maroon one with KA registration. The colour has faded and has lost its shine. I will try getting more details and pics when I pass by next time.
