That was the first book about the Mercedes-Benz G-Class that I bought before buying my G. It basically is a compilation of articles about the G-class. In most of these articles the G-Class is compared with the Range Rover and a few other cars. IMHO there are better books out there but if you are a G fanatic then it's a 'nice to have' item to complete your G-Class library. If you are looking for more detailed information about the G-Class, it's history both past and present, I would suggest the following books; 1) Das grosse Mercedes G Buch - Michael Füngeling AC Verlags & Messe GmbH - ISBN 3-930 193-24-8 2) Das neue grosse Mercedes G-Klasse-Buch - Jörg Sand Heel Verlag GmbH - ISBN 3-89880-339-2 3) Die Legende fährt weiter, 25 Jahre Mercedes-Benz G-Klasse - Martin Breuninger Tufa GmbH - ISBN 3-00-013633-9 These three books are all in German. I am not sure about the first two but the last one is and/or was definitely available in English as well. ORC in Germany still has both versions (German and English) within their web shop pages. You can find them here: http://www.ORC.de Daniela, who speaks English as well, is very helpful. You can contact her here: daniela.baur@orc.de Just wish I had known about these other books before I set out to buy my G. There is some good information in these books which can be very helpful when shopping for a G-Class. Information that you won't find in the Brooklands book 'Mercedes G-wagen'. Anybody out there who knows more about other good G-Class books? Please inform me as I love my books. Regards, Edit: take a look at this post 'G-wagen Jubilee Book in English Still Available' as well ( http://www.pointedthree.com/disc/forums/showthread.php?tid=3997&pos...)

Please inform me as I love my books. These are the books on the GWagen that I know of (the good, the bad and the ugly) This one hasn't been listed here yet. While not specifically about the G-Class, it has an entire section about it; and is very interesting reading about the company which developed and assembles the G-Class. 100 Years of Steyr-Daimler-Puch Graz edited by Rudolf Skarics and published by Steyr-Daimler-Puch Fahrzeugtechnik AG & Co. KG, ISBN: 3-9501107-1-2. It should still be available from the MagnaSteyr Parts Department. Let me know by email, if you'd like contact information. | ||
