Limited edition Unimog is last of original range
THE Mercedes Benz volume-selling Unimog – the U1600AG – is now available as a special limited edition model.
Commanding 60% of Unimog sales, the U1600AG will be on sale until the end of March when production of the original U90 to U2450 mogs will cease.
These models will then be updated with the more modern design of the U300, U400 and U500 – the first pair will replace the U1600AG.
"For more than 20 years, Unimogs have proven popular for their all terrain abilities, transport speeds and ability to carry men and machines," says Mark Hopkins, Unimogs UK director. "This is the last opportunity to buy a new U1600AG before production switches to the new range."
Options on the Limited Edition U1600AG include air conditioning, 445/70R24 tyres, a hydraulically suspended drivers seat and a service for trailer brakes. The model will be available with a standard body in a limited range of colours.
Powered by a Euro 1 Merc engine which develops 214bhp, the U1600AG features a 16F/16R semi powershift transmission and a front and rear pto. Maximum road speed is rated at 56mph.
And the price? The U1600AG will start at £50,000 – a hefty £15,000 less than the original model. *
The U1600AG Unimog will be offered as a limited edition machine until the end of March.
