You have got to love a vehicle that is a vertable swiss army knife of go anywhere workaday magic. Have always loved Unimogs and was I a farmer - I would try and find any excuse to own one!

I've just driven this beauty back from Andorra for a mate of mine who wants to sell it - it really is a peach.

My brother used to drive one in the 80's when he worked for a local crop-spraying company;
the sight of a UniMog being driven maniacally by a teen who looked like a failed 70's heavy rocker got him where he wanted quite quickly!

And you can (quite literally) park it where you want!

Cooler than a cool thing living on cool street!

One of these turned up on our campsite this summer, and the guy showed us around it. Very nice indeed! They were heading south and onto Europe to drive the Silk Road. bds.

There can be no better sign that some people have more money than sense, than the fact Brabus have done at least 1 customised Unimog...

What the hell you need one for I've no idea - but it's the ultimate in blinged-out Tonka Toys smile
If you had the money, you just would, wouldn't you?
Don't give Gulzar any ideas, please. The world isn't ready for that...

The new Unimog's look fantastic, definitely one of the first buys after a lottery win.

They are just so cool.

A Unimog and a Zil would look great together in the fleet.

I used to drive around in one of these, when I served in an Anti-Aircraft unit in the army, they are absolutely lovely.
