It was doing 20L/100Km without even being towing his Brabus boat on his Brabus trailer. That would be a perfect match. I find funny that, by having a speedometer on the back, the buyer will not only be listening complaints about speed from the respective partner in life, but also from the present or future mother in law. Maybe that's why the speedometer reads a lower speed limit. 🤣

None

This is much needed. In Berlin you see more normal G-wagons than VW Golfs nowadays.
The thing I realized about Brabus is that almost every part of the car has a Brabus logo on it which makes it feel excessive.
Yep. Each Brabus car costed about $500000.
Looks shit yes
Thats what ya gotta pay for double german engineering lmao
