    Merc East Rand G-Class launch

    Thank you very much to Merc East Rand for the invitation to their G-Class launch at Krugersdorp Nature Reserve.

    Although I was terribly late myself, due to a blown tire on the N14, I was warmly greeted and received by both the Merc staff, club members and other G enthusiasts. The potential clients Merc had there were very keen to chat to the club members and literally had hundreds of questions and comments. All of us were very proud and keen to share our experiences and encouraged all interested to become part of the fraternity. The track guys did a good job at explaining and demonstrating the G's capabilities and why it is considered to be the king of 4x4ing.

    I think overall the event was well organised and everyone was catered for in a way only Merc can do. Well done once again and thank you!

    Excellent, wish I could have joined in the fun.
    I'm sure most there already knew more than the average 4x4 seeker regarding the Mercedes of 4x4's

    I'm Joining in with Henry's comments and appreciations, I will certainly wear the MB East Rand Jacket when I will go and collect my new G at Sandton MB. I'm sure about the funny reaction I will get!
