Win the ultimate weekend getaway with Mercedes-AMG + The Hilton!
There’s a reason why 50-year anniversaries are known as the golden anniversary – they’re incredibly rare to come by and mark a massive achievement.
In 2017, one such business is celebrating their half-century birthday, Mercedes-AMG. What began as a two-man operation has grown to become 1,500 employees strong, and continues to maintain a strong reputation for producing cars that feature cutting-edge technology and elegant design aesthetics.
High performance AMG variants adopt a ‘one man, one engine’ philosophy, which means that each engine is hand-crafted by one qualified engineer. Last year alone the company delivered almost 100,000 units, which is a whole lotta man hours.
For the past half century, the letters AMG have been synonymous with all things luxurious, exclusive, and high-performing. Such a reputation continues to follow the brand wherever each of its expertly crafted cars traverses.
To celebrate such a milestone, Remix are delighted to be giving one lucky reader an epic weekend away for two at the beautiful Great Lake Taupo. Note: you’ll need to be 21 years or older to qualify entry.
You’ll pick up the slick Mercedes-AMG 43 model on Friday, grab your partner in crime and cruise towards the stunning shores of Lake Taupo. When there, you’ll pull up at the picturesque Hilton Lake Taupo and check in for two incredible nights’ stay.
And when the hunger pang hits, you’ll enjoy dinner at the impeccable Bistro Lago, where you can dine on the finest European fare – think free range chicken breast with butternut squash, Amaretto crumb, ricotta, and lashings of sage brown butter, or Savannah eye fillet with edamame bean, almond milk gratin and a sprinkle of feta. Fill your days with plenty of activities to choose from – parasailing, prawn fishing, luxury spa treatments – there’s something for just about everyone. You’ll be journeying back home with a massive grin on your face come Sunday afternoon, having indulged in the perfect weekend sojourn.
