    The Last Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet Sold For R20 Million

    These days it is not uncommon for high-end machines to command a seven-figure price tag |(in dollars) such as the Bugatti Chiron etc but for an SUV surely now?

    Well it is an SUV but not just any SUV. This is the Mercedes-Maybach G650 Landaulet and it just sold for $1.4 million at auction.

    Mercedes committed to making just 99 units of their most luxurious G-Wagon with each of them priced around $740,000 (around R10 million) which makes this pretty much double the price. Yes it is the last unit out of the production but paying some an exorbitant premium for the same car just baffles the mind.

    The winning bid came from an unnamed local Belgian collector, with proceeds to benefit the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation that Mercedes has long supported.

    As a reminder, this creation is a combination of the beefed-up suspension from the G500 4×4² with the 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12 engine from the G65 AMG and all the luxury amenities that separate a Maybach from a “regular” Merc.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
