Brabus

[humpbackmaniac]

I love them, 700hp G Wagons, I mean whats not to like?

I tell you what, Limited edition Merc C220 Diesels with Brabus badges/wheels, 7.8 seconds to 60!
And smug Next suit wearing drivers who's tie matches their shirt colour exactly, and say things like "its a Brabus" when I look curiously.
My flabber was gasted, I could only shake my head and cry a little tear in to my visor.

I thought Brabus would be the last to sell out. (I dont see Brabus Smart Cars, they dont exist, fingers in ears, hands over eyes)

Hmm that explains why the "Brabus" diesel failed to get away from me. I was thinking it was some V8 turbo dev monster, but alas no....

My idiot neighbour has a big V8 Merc. It used to have Brabus and DTM badges on it. Now it has AMG and DTM badges on it. I fear he is a fking cretin.

It was only matter of time really - AMG bodykit, wheels and badges for a few grand on some bland repmobile? Brabus are just getting in on the act, and I can't blame them for wanting to make money, particularly if it goes a little way to ensuring stuff like the Rocket still get made.

Has been going on for years.

I think Merc sell Brabus-branded kit from the dealerships these days. I was offered a Brabus ecu replacement for my old w211 e320 oil burner by my MB dealer, they wanted £3,500! Of course, it wouldn't have invalidated the warranty though...

[Pablo16v]

If the money generated through selling aftermarket stuff for lesser models allows Brabus to continue producing moster Mercs then I don't really see what the issue is. I'd rather they did this than go bust.

You can get brabus kits for your Vito!

Well I say brabus kits, its a bit of body work, some shiny wheels a few badges and the no doubt fk all done to the engine.

I used to crave a brabus, not any more. gaudy, headline grabbing wes these days.
Shame.
