This is a superb example of the highly sought after and collectable Mercedes Benz G Wagen 300 GD Mark2. This stunning example is very practical for daily use, yet highly capable if ever needed off road. This model is based on Military grade construction with a solid chassis for added strength and durability.
Comfort and safety combined; great looks and reliability make this a fantastic all round multi-use vehicle!
This particular 300GD was purchased, January 2018, and driven for a year when the owner decided to totally restore it. The car has been used lightly and meticulously kept, stored in a garage, under cover.
The engine sounds wonderful with only 61k miles on the clock. It has plenty of torque when needed. The present owner is very sad to see it go. He describes it as a fantastic car which has given him joy seeing it restored back to its former glory.
THE PAPERWORK
It comes with copious amounts of receipts and MOT certificates over the years. All paperwork is present and correct and the vehicle will come with a full years MOT at point of sale
As you will see from the photographs, overall the interior is in beautiful condition. The roof lining is in good condition. The leather seats are luxurious and comfortable. The carpets are in excellent condition, complimented by heavy duty floor mats for added protection.
There is no visible damage to the dashboard and panels, everything works as it should. There is a Mercedes Tool kit is stored in its original canvass bag located under the passenger footwell.
The boot is spotless and the additional carpet mat protector is immaculate as you will see from the photographs.
The paintwork looks stunning as all the panels have been replaced and a high end spray job in its original colour certainly brings it all together. The Body is in fantastic condition all round. All glass panels are in perfect condition, apart from a very small stone chip on the lower right windscreen.
The engine sounds very quiet, sweet and buttery smooth for a three litre diesel. This model is fitted with a turbo which improves performance and torque which you would expect from a solid heavy MPV.
Over the last four years there has been new springs fitted, new discs and break pads all round, new shock absorbers, and a new clutch.
The doors and side panels are in great condition with no dents or dings present.The alloy wheels and tyres are in perfect condition.
This car appeals to anyone who wants a stunning solid Multi Purpose Vehicle that could be summed up in one word, RELIABLE. There’s no high end electronics and computers to worry about. Its built like a tank and looks absolutely stunning and a real head turner in its original colour!
For daily use to serious off roading, this G Wagen will go literally wherever you steer it with peace of mind knowing that all the major components have been recently changed.
This type of vehicle is a good investment as good ones like this that have been lovingly restored are hard to come by!

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
