1986 production Mercedes 300 GD Gelandewagen. This Mercedes was just delivered stateside by our supplier in Europe. We have imported many of these and this is easily the best driver. Most of the wagons from this era being advertised both here and abroad have been neglected for many years and/or suffer from serious rust issues. This unit is very nice and has very low mileage. It was cosmetically freshened several years ago and shows very well.

The paint is what I would describe as very good. driver quality. The car has been driven and enjoyed so you should expect some typical minor faults. There are a few very small bubbles in several spots but are nothing that need any attention. The interior was updated with a very nice leather and suede seat combo. most of the interior panels and headliner were also done in suede. A carpet kit was fitted at the same time. Later Mercedes alloy wheels along with nearly new Michelin tires keep everything firmly planted on the ground.

Mechanically. this Mercedes is exceptional. The 300 series MB diesel engine is one of the most reliable motors ever built with enthusiasts ranging from the ecologically minded bio diesel crowd to hard core off-roaders. Obviously. you aren't going to win any formula one races. but the huge amount of torque generated buy the diesel motor and gearing in the 5 speed box make for a very nice driver. Driving at freeway speeds is not a problem and drama free.

Customs has become very strict with grey market imports over the last several years. There are numerous horror stories about cars being seized and destroyed. Lots of sellers will offer vehicles for sale that are still in Europe and leave you holding the bag if there are problems at the port. This Mercedes is already here in NC and has been imported in complete compliance with EPA and DOT regulations. all the import documents and certifications will be provided to the buyer at the time of purchase along with the European title and paperwork. We can assist with having a title issued here in North Carolina or in the state that the vehicle will ultimately reside. A local viewing and inspection is both welcome and encouraged with appointment. We are happy to help with shipping and freight logistics.

***Ebay does not recognize European VIN numbers. The Mercedes is a 1986 production model. not a 1980.
