460 series 500 GE AMG

I am not sure that this is a modification or a fully MB-supported AMG conversion.

In issue 17 of the G-Wizz there was a feature of what the owner claimed to be one of four 460 series 500 GE produced by AMG. The story, as told by the owner, who back then at least was a GWOA member, read:

"As far as I can gather Mercedes commissioned AMG to install their 5 ltr V8 into 4 G-Wagens during 1987, HRH Mohammed Al Maktoum (to follow his race horses no doubt) originally purchased the one now in my possesion from SMAC in Southend..."

At the time the article was made the owner had painted the car in "McLaren colours" as see in the pictures and offered the car for sale for £ 10,000.

Can somebody confirm that this is a genuine AMG car and does anybody out there know whether the then owner managed to sell the car or for how much and where is the car now????
