Welcome to MBGC online magazine Winter edition

With the colder months setting in, MBGC is turning up the heat and getting behind the wheel of the slick AMG CLA35 with drone-tech innovator Jackie Dujmovic of Hover UAV to discuss her work and the future of drone air space.

We also test out the latest all-new Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sedan with a drive from the scenic coast to the winding roads of Tallebudgera’s hinterland with Rachael Reid from Her Supercar Life.

For Label, we chat with inspirational Indigenous businesswoman Emma Rolls about her gorgeous soft furnishings featuring aboriginal-designed artworks, and her mission to bring traditional culture to Aussie classrooms; for Space, we discover the lasting legacy of The Doyles Art award, the Gold Coast’s longest running art prize; we enjoy fine French cuisine inside a century’s old mansion at Murwillumbah’s Tweed River House; and order some quality ethically-sourced coffee from Burleigh’s Joy Beans in Enterprise.  

Heading south, MBGC puts the coastal nooks of Palm Beach and Tallebudgera under the microscope, revealing the understated charm of these two vibrant, yet laid-back suburbs; and we have all our wishes granted with the Mercedes-Benz ad for the new AMG A 45 in Propaganda. 

Share the link with your friends, and if you’d like to view the range of Mercedes-Benz autos, please view the Pre-Owned Catalogue in the top menu or call into our Robina showroom.
