Ukraine is home to a very unusual and truly renowned Mercedes-Benz G-Class. It turned out that this armored SUV has been in many hot spots.

TopGir wrote about this G-Wagon – it was spotted in Kyiv with “Press” written on the body. Later, journalist Enno Lenze reached out to us – he is the one driving the armored car.

It turned out that this Mercedes G-Class was manufactured back in 1982 and it has often been in combat zones. During the Yugoslav war, it was in Sarajevo, and in 2003 it went to Baghdad.

Ukraine was no exception – journalists arrived here in the G-Wagon in the spring. They visited various parts of the country – Kyiv, Lviv, Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Kharkiv. For example, here’s a link to one of their reports, translated into Ukrainian.
