While today's G Wagons are typically swathed in quilted leather and rarely venture beyond the urban jungle, their forebears were built with an altogether different purpose in mind. The 240GD, powered by Mercedes' famously indestructible 2.4-litre diesel engine and paired with a five-speed manual gearbox, was designed to serve in the most demanding environments - and this ex-Singapore Military example is an evocative reminder of that heritage.
Dispatched new to the Singapore Armed Forces, this right-hand drive 240GD is unashamedly utilitarian. It lacks door trims, carpets and even solid door tops, while the front seat squabs feature drain holes for open-top use in adverse weather. The vendor states the vehicle presents in very good original condition, having evidently seen very little use during its military service. It was registered in the UK in September 2022 and has seemingly lived a quiet life since.
An advisory-free MOT valid until May 2027 accompanies the car, and we understand that it's ready and waiting to be driven away. image.png1.48 MB

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.

✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle.
