It is not every day you get to see the legendary Mercedes G63 in Singapore. 

And it is even rarer to see one involved in an accident. 

Watch it here: 

What Happened?

A Mercedes G63 and a Volkswagen Transporter 'chiong-ed' along Yishun Ave 8 upon the red traffic light signal turning green. 

Its 4.0-Litre Bi-Turbocharged V8 engine and all-wheel-drive drivetrain instantly picked up speed. 

Directly behind the G-wagon was the Volkswagen Transporter. 

Although the specs of the Volkswagen Transporter is not anywhere near the G-wagon, it is still pretty decent (2.0-Litre, 4-cylinder turbocharged paired to a 7-speed DCT transmission). 

And surprisingly, the Volkswagen Transporter was hot on the G-wagon's heels (Yes, I know. The G63 driver probably did not step hard on the accelerator). 

As they approached a red light, the G63 driver could not react in time and slammed hard into a stationary Honda Vezel. 

The impact was forceful enough to push the Honda SUV across the stop line. 

Some debris were also scattered across the road due to the accident. 

And yes. Both cars' repair costs are just going to be loose change to the G-wagon driver.

Speeding in a G63 is not satki anymore. There's a time and place for everything.

The G63 driver not paying attention, didnt realise the van just behind him on the right. He probably wanted to change to right lane at the traffic light. Realised the van was there. Indecision, didnt brake in time for the traffic light.

Yup, the G-wagon driver was certainly not paying attention!

Yup, this is not your regular G-class SUV (Eg. GLA, GLB, GLC, GLE) - Its a performance SUV. And not only is the price tag expensive, insurance and road tax ($3920/year) also very chor.

I feel the driver too panicky… should stick to lane2 instead. Drive slowly ….

Being able to  afford a G63 is a strong statement by itself,  letting  alone the power under the hood, why bother with a van ?

This incident explains why the insurance is so 'chor'.

  • A sole-ful tribute

    Car enthusiasts are an emotional bunch. So, I naturally develop feelings for things on wheels, be it four wheels or two. However, I was surprised to discover that I had become attached to my old pair of sneakers, whose soles are so worn that it hurts to wear them.  That is the unequivocal signal to retire them. But I must say "Thank you" before bidding them goodbye. The laceless design is convenient, saving time when you need to rush off in the morning Through thick and
