Brick-shaped, brick-made: Mercedes G500 immortalised in Lego

Updated: 01 August 2024

Read our Mercedes G-Glass review here
► Merc’s blockiest ride, made from 2891 Lego pieces
► Off-road credentials with working differentials and beefy suspension
► Celebrate 45 years of the G-Glass

Blocky is a word that describes the Mercedes G-Glass extremely well. It’s also a word that’s synonymous with Lego. A partnership between the two, in the form of the brand-new Lego Technic Mercedes-Benz G500, is a match made in heaven.    

Built to celebrate 45 years of the Mercedes G-Class, the G500 measures 43 cm long and looks wilderness-ready with its roof rack, ladder, and chunky spare wheel.

As part of the Technic series, expect this model to be jam-packed with intricate features that’ll let your inner engineer shine. The G500 is no different, with a moving straight-six piston engine, selectable gearbox, locking differentials, and modelled suspension.

The G-Class needs little introduction. Introduced in 1979, it quickly established itself as a no-nonsense off-roader. In the time since it’s morphed from a utilitarian tool into a luxurious SUV, but it’s never lost the off-road credentials that made it an icon.

The box contains 2891 pieces, and you can pick the G500 up for £219.99 today.
