There are countless reasons why our Team Galag Snow Tour is crazy, but having a Mercedes Maybach G650 Landaulet as a camera and support car might just top it all!

Here is the full info on the Mercedes Maybach G650 Landaulet From Mercedes themselves:
With a length of 5345 millimetres, a wheelbase of 3428 millimetres, a height of 2235 millimetres, almost half a metre of ground clearance and ample space and comfort for four passengers, the G 650 Landaulet surpasses all standards. This extrovert G‑Class thus represents a unique combination of luxurious chauffeur saloon and off-roader. While the driver and front passenger are accommodated under the closed roof, the rear passengers can revel in a maximum of comfort: at the press of a button, a large folding top opens electrically to offer a view of the blue sky. The rear passengers enjoy the majestic open-air experience from their single seats. On demand, an electrically operated glass partition separates the rear compartment from the driver’s section. In addition, the glass can be changed from transparent to opaque at the press of a button.
First-class rear seats with calf rest and fully reclined position
Thanks to the 578 millimetre longer wheelbase, the passengers in the Mercedes‑Maybach G 650 Landaulet benefit from extensive freedom of movement. The first-class rear seats from the S‑Class significantly enhance the seating comfort and spaciousness: the electrically multi-adjustable individual seats can be conveniently set to a fully reclined position. The active multicontour seats with energising massage function have inflatable air chambers to provide high seating comfort and excellent lateral support. Massage programs make for enhanced well-being – according to the principle of a relaxing hot-stone massage, including with heat. The rear seating concept is augmented by a calf rest, which is freely adjustable in length and swivel range.
The other appointments of the G 650 Landaulet also leave nothing to be desired. To afford the rear passengers the optimum in comfort, there is a large business console with thermal cup holders between the individual seats. These allow beverages to be cooled or heated over a lengthy period of time. The controls for opening or closing the glass partition are integrated behind the cup holders. Similarly to an aircraft seat, the centre console comes with two tables, which can be easily folded in or out with one hand. The table tops have leather inserts to provide a comfortable writing surface or to allow the use of tablets and notebooks.
Individual Entertainment System with two monitors in the rear
Positioned in front of the cup holders is a control for the rear air conditioning. Further forward is a «G cockpit» in the style of the driver’s instrument panel. The centre console houses the three distinctive, centrally placed pushbutton switches. These switches are not used to operate the three differential locks, however: one switch is for the interior lighting, while the other two are used to open and close the soft top. The rear «G cockpit» also includes two glove compartments as well as grab handles typical of the G‑Class. The cross-member, which also holds the glass partition, accommodates two 25.4 cm (10‑inch) high-resolution media displays of the Individual Entertainment System.
Two-tone designo upholstery in four trim colours
The luxurious, exquisite character of the Landaulet is emphasised by the high-grade designo upholstery with diamond stitching, which is in all cases two-tone and available in four trim colours. Customers can choose between three different matching colours for the fabric top as well as four attractive designo paint finishes, including a matt finish. «V12 BITURBO» lettering on the front wings points to the ultimate in motive power, the 12‑cylinder engine. The radiator grille features a chrome-plated double louvre and a chrome-plated screen.
Exclusive «LANDAULET» lettering is worked into the rim flanges of the ceramically polished, 55.9 cm (22‑inch) 5‑twin-spoke light-alloy wheels. Electrically extending entry aids make for easier access to the vehicle. Other exclusive exterior design features include front and rear underride guards, large wheel-arch flares in genuine carbon fibre as well as, mounted on the right at the rear, the spare wheel with integral holder for the third brake light.
High drive comfort comes courtesy of the most powerful available engine, the Mercedes-AMG V12 biturbo, which delivers a maximum output of 463 kW (630 hp) with a peak torque of 1000 Newton-metres.

Every one loves freebies. No matter how incredibly wealthy one may be ha ha ha grazie ciao
Epic video as usual James!
Sorry but that's the most useless 4×4 that's went into production.
The transition at 1:35 was insanely cool
Living in London, you don't really appreciate the R8 sometimes as it takes something really special to turn heads. The look on some of these guys faces that are meeting you at each stop reminds me I take them for granted. Bringing some fun to people while you have it yourself must be great. If life was like this more often the world would be a better place..
What type of sunglasses are those? Who makes them?
James and Shmee do what I want to do, drive cool cars with friends all over the world. Ultimate goals
It’s nice to see people using their cars in all weather. Btw I dig your glasses more. A little less… hipsterish hah
Dude, I can't fucking believe I didn't hear about this… The one time you guys come to my town, and I miss it! Worst part is my friends live right next to where you had lunch, and they didn't tell me about all the ruckus and the crazy cars!
Great team and content )
James, Thanks for documenting this perfectly!
Hmm is that bearded dude well known or what’s the fuss about? There a group of dudes driving their cars, having a burger, then driving again. Where’s the story here?
why does the porsche have yellow headlights at @1:40
Wow man it would certainly be such a pleasure to meet you at some point, the amount of energy you have is just incredible!
Enjoy this tour as much as possible James and be safe out there.
Epic group of cars and YouTube faces from you James to seb to Sam

All the camera gear in that Defender, epic V12 G650, stunning E30 M3….everything is next level!
How do you afford this lifestyle? Youtube money or you have a company?
Hi JWW! I have a defender almost identical to that beast.
Im trying to work out if they really are going up in value?
The limited run v8 defenders going up for sale this year are STARTING at 150 000 pounds….
It would be nuts if you delved into this at some point!
much love,
Dan from Australia
Hello Mr JWW and fellow vehicle enthusiasts! Ive decided to buy a fun explorer vehicle and Ive narrowed it to 2. A fully built lifted 1997 land rover SE7 Camel Trophy (not original just built to look like one) or a stock 2002 Mercedes G500. The G500 is more expensive by about 30 percent. Thanks for any votes.
