To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION at RM Sothebys' Shift Online: Europe and Middle East event, 23 - 28 April 2025.

  • Reportedly used by Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Second Deputy Ruler of Dubai for hunting
  • A high-specification G-Wagen delivered new to Dubai in May 2013
  • Repainted in a terracotta hue; features a Chestnut suede interior with Walnut trim
  • A low-mileage example, having covered just 2,906 kilometres at the time of cataloguing
  • Powered by a 5.5-litre V-8 engine mated to a seven-speed automatic gearbox

Delivered new to Dubai in May 2013, this Mercedes-Benz G 500 was originally finished in Palladium Silver Metallic paint complemented by a Chestnut suede interior. Well optioned, the car features burred walnut trim throughout plus a half-leather and half-walnut steering wheel, while the dashboard is leather-covered, and the headlining is finished in Alcantara. Occupants benefit from heated front and rear seats, a fully electric sunroof, and side steps for ease of access. Outside, the car boasts stainless steel trim including for the space saver spare wheel cover. The G 500 further benefits from blind spot assistance, rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, and much more. A full list of the factory-equipped options is available on file.

The car was later repainted in terracotta, with the interior carpet fitted with a leather overmat to prevent the ingress of sand into the carpet pile. It was reportedly used by Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Second Deputy Ruler of Dubai for hunting.

Seldom used, this G 500 has covered a mere 2,906 kilometres at the time of cataloguing. With its stunning body colour and lavishly specified Chestnut leather interior, this G-Wagen presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a unique version of an iconic Mercedes-Benz model.
