Saying goodbye is never easy, especially when it means waving off a car as venerable as the old Mercedes G-Wagen. Luckily Brabus has thought of a way of making it all a bit less tearful. Unless those tears are brought on by fear. This is the Brabus 700 4x4 Squared One of Ten Final Edition, a name of admirable length given it barely even references the donor car involved. The keener-eyed among you will have spotted it"s the hiked-up, off-roadier Mercedes G500 4x4 Squared with more aggression and, being a Brabus production, a smidge more power. A smidge" in this case being almost 300bhp, given the G500"s stock 416bhp has risen to just shy of 700bhp. The torque figure is now a faintly alarming 708lb ft, more than most supercars you could dare name and surely quite a lot to put to good use when your centre of gravity is so high.
