These two must be the rarest as there was only a hand full of these that were made in RHD before they became mass produced in the RHD form. I remember talking about a few other RHD G55's of the time like the MATALAN bros x2 G55's etc in 2007. Black and dark red interior ones with spot lamps on front bumpers......they looked bad ass at the time.

both Kompressors - nice find. Anyone know if one can get the jump seats installed at the back?

This is a cheap one being a 2005 55' plate kompressor one too! But it's LHD. I love them anyhow.

I have not been following the AMG valuations for a while but the ballpark figure in Germany used to be:  the value of a G500/ 350 halves in six years, AMG Gs achieve this within four years assuming an annual mileage of 10,000 km. Thereafter the value declines gradually.  In RHD the G350 seems to follow this rule.

As Mercedes continues the production of Gs, the collectibles are the 460s and the final version.  Just my personal opinion.

Looks like my LHD 2005 Kompressor with 55k miles is about on the money then?
