5th Gear decided to test this car to death ..similar to 'Top Gear' with the Toyota pick-up.! (..going on the reputation that 'old Merc's never die' and the fact that Mercedes-Benz had said they would like to get back to the quality they once had with these cars.!)
pics during testing ...and after being run over.! (even after all the tests ...& being crushed ...it still started and drove ...although not in great condition anymore.!! ...it's still registered ...hasn't been scrapped.! ...probably on display somewhere.?)

After the monster truck scene, they blown up the poor Mercedes, first, a grenade in front seats, a cannon shoot to it, dinamite in engine bay, etc...

This was such a blatant ripoff of the Top Gear Hilux scene

The only reason fifth gear did this is because they wer obviously running out of ideas so they copied top gear. But it wasn't better than Top gear and they just wasted a perfectly good car

Terrible rip off of the Toyota Hi-Lux in Top Gear, and nowhere near as adventurous or entertaining.
