A day with a V12 G-Class, what could possibly go wrong

We embarked on a cold but sunny morning in the winter. The perfect conditions for a V12-powered G-Class, the unnessecary but desirable 2012 Mercedes-Benz G65 AMG. When you think of a G-Class you think of capable but also stylish. The main talking point of the G65 is obviously the 6.0 litre biturbo V12 making 603 horsepower and a jawdropping 1000 Nm of Torque. But why should you spend more than 100'000 Euros (in fact 127'000) for a V12? Because there's really nothing it, except the glorious feeling of having a 6.0 litre V12 under your hood. But how does it handle? Well imagine driving a shoe-box with wheels and a lot of power, in a nutshell, it's complicated.

Oh, and did we mention that it drinks a lot of fuel?
