Mercedes-Benz M-Class

Mercedes Benz M-Class are the vehicles the InGen gatherers used during their expedition to Isla Sorna along with two modified trailers. Their purpose was to be able to drive and navigate throughout the island for the gatherers purpose of transporting equipment such as cameras and items for studying dinosaurs. Both of the vehicles were 1997 Mercedes M-Class W163.

Movie
Only two variants of the Mercedes-Benz M-Class's were in operation on Isla Sorna Incident, by the Ingen gatherers. The following are not official names, but based on their purposes.
 * M-Class Convertible
 * M-Class Observatory

Plus one that was left behind, because of the lack of driver.
 * M-Class Laboratory

During a deleted scene they leave the vehicles where the trailer scene will occur and go to find Sarah because they don't want to risk damaging vehicles. That evening when Ian returned from the high hide because Nick didn't answer the phone because he was fixing the infant's leg but when he returned the Rex sent one of the Mercedes over the cliff. The final time we see the vehicle is when the Rex sent the trailer over the cliff with Ian, Nick and Sarah trapped inside and Eddie leaves with the second one. In an attempt to pull the trailers up the Rex parents came back and attacked Eddie's vehicle and kill him in the process and the handbrake was left down so it rolled over the cliff but he saved the lives of his friends at the cost of his.

Features
Each car featured 4-wheel drive, front bull bars, front tow cable, fog lights, rear tail light guards, custom step bar, leather seats, and a camouflage paint. Each variant included various other small changes that added to each vehicle's purpose.

Convertible: Cut out backside, mounted light bar, bottom mounted hang on jerry cans, aluminum interior.

Fate
As mentioned the Convertible as driven by Eddie was damaged by two T-Rex's and eventually went over the side with the Fleetwood RV Mobile Lab off a cliff.

The Observatory was rolled off the cliff by a T-Rex prior to the the cliff scene above.

The Laboratory was unharmed and still exists at the garage where all the equipment for the Ingen gatherers were manufactured and customized.

Game
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (arcade game) featured the M-Class prevalently as the mode of travel. They are usable in The Lost World: Jurassic Park (SEGA Genesis Game).
