The History of the Shah of Iran and Mercedes Benz G Wagon
The Shah was a major share holder in Mercedes Benz


The first 4 door was then called a G 240 and and it was very useful.













Unfortunately for Mercedes, what the G-wagen couldn't handle was the full scale Islamic revolution that deposed the Shah at the end of the 1970s. The
Geländewagen was finally ready for its patron, but he was in exile, and Iran was now a theocracy. Oops.
