It was on an imported TDi Defender at a transmission shop I was delivering to, no pics because at work. Anyways, it looked like that one, but with more rock rails and a roof rack, and the plate said G-WAGEN. It was beautiful.
More 110s

I’m kind of curious - what’s the wheel base like on a 110?

If I ever get a Veyron, I desperately want a “LAMBO” vanity plate for it.

Guys - I suppose you know G-Wagen is short for
Geländewagen,
which just means “offroad vehicle, offroader” in German? I don’t know whether MB actually registered “G-Wagen” as a trademark, but that kind of abbreviation is very common in German anyway (compare with
U-Boot,
for instance). Maybe the owner was a German with a warped sense of humour. I agree that most vanity plates are extremely silly though.
(In the same way, Bulli is not just the VW Van, but any light commercial vehicle.)
Nice pics of Landies. I have a “third-restored” 86” from 1954. Chassis done, axles done, gearbox and transfer case done. Body and engine will still have to wait...
Indeed Defender 110 does have a 110in wheelbase. But I remembered there was something odd about the other versions and, yes, according to Wikipedia the Defender 90 wheelbase is 92.9in (and the 130 is actually 127in).
