Saw this one this morning in Kiev... It says G500 on the back. But I don't recognize the lights at the bottom.

Not sure if the owner is a member here...

At a glance... it is more rusty and looks more used than my 91' 300 GE

Brabus add-on I suspect...was a blue LWB for sale recently with same...owned by Fixwin recently...which had this bumper and light arrangement.

Re: G wagen in Kiev, Ukriane

Do you mean the lights on the bottom, front spoiler underneath the bumper? Those lights, the spoiler, as well as the spoiler on the back of the roof look to me like a brabus kit (although it could very well be a copy).

I dont know whether or not I like the roof spoiler - but what I do know is that if the spoiler were on my car, it would definitely NOT fit the height clearance needed to get into my underground car park!!

Nice spot!

Like 2.5tonnes of G really requires extra downforce!

hahahaha, nah... i am still obsessed with cats, but travelling is what i also like.

Here is the photo of the silver G500, which I saw yesterday... one of the brake lights doesn't work.

Furthermore... saw another 2 Gs in Odessa earlier today. A normal silver 463 and a black 463 with Brabus front grid.

I noticed that the Brabus looking G's indicators were not on the usual place, i.e. next to the bonnet at the front. But sadly I didn't have time to observe where they were, nor have time to take a photo...

By the way... I didn't cross out the number plate, it was like that for some reason.

I saw two very new 500s or 55s (both black) driving nose to bumper through St Petersburg a couple of years ago. Crims fav ride.

Hahaha... That seems to be the most common way of parking in Odessa.

Re: G wagen in Kiev, Ukriane

ok, one last G... very new G500 in black at borispol airport.

Most Gs here are 463 LWB, in either black or silver except for 1... really not that exciting.

Hmmmm... actually, this G's driver looks rather like a arms dealer, i know i am being sterotypical, but WELL!!! He really DOES!

Re: G wagen in Kiev, Ukriane

In Odessa again at the moment... just saw the light gold G400 and a fake brabus at almost the same spot as last time!

By the way... only saw 3 Gs in the EU. 1 military G in the Netherlands, 1 military G in Berlin and a 463 in Poland. However, 5 463s are already spotted in Odessa, although I have only arrived for slightly more than 24 hours. 2 brand new 2009 463s in the MB dealership, the fake Brabus, the golden G400 and a dark blue 463.
