1986 Mercedes Benz G Wagon

VIN: 46023827037063

2. 3L 4 Cylinder Engine with 5 speed gearbox

77k miles

Red/black

We absolutely love this vehicle. It was collected from Brunswick. GA only two weeks ago and driven the 300 miles back to our showroom in Kissimmee. FL (the back roads!).

This G Wagon is an absolutely superb drive. customs commented that it was one of the few vehicles that they never had to jump start once after coming over on a boat for two weeks with no gas and a disconnected battery. it starts first time. every time.

The drive is great. very responsive steering and surprisingly light to steer. Gear changes are smooth and feel tight. The visibility is excellent due to the huge rear windows. The 2. 3 gas engine never feels underpowered and zips along nicely at a cruising speed of around 70 mph.

The most recent buyer had a 110 point inspection carried out on the vehicle. it scared him but for anyone who is looking at this vehicle for what it is. a 27 year old classic. then it probably makes it more valuable knowing there is hardly anything wrong at all. This car needs to go to someone who is looking for a classic. not someone who wants a new car. Points noted on the inspection were:

This G Wagon is a real head turner. It has spent 4 hours in our workshop being valeted and looks stunning. A brilliant red combined with black arches and trims really pop.

We would say that this is an entry level vehicle. for someone who loves and appreciates the G Wagon and wants something special. I have personally driven the vehicle and find the drive excellent. my wife drove it for 5 hours back from Brunswick and didn't want to get out at the other end. It is the kind of vehicle that you quickly grow attached to and will want to tinker with it.

The reason we call this an entry level vehicle is that there are minor things that an enthusiast would possibly want to consider. although it is stunning as it is. There are some cosmetic jobs that could be done which would only improve the vehicle. There are areas where the paint is flaking. not through rust. just old paint. If this G Wagon was to be resprayed it would soon look like the $50. 00 plus vehicles you see up for sale. The interior is in great condition. the only flaw is the tear in the drivers seat. the kind that comes from climbing up into the vehicle and squashing down the edge of the seat. this has been stitched and repaired as you can see in the photo. but would benefit from being removed and repaired.

The best thing is that the bones of this G Wagon are superb. the chassis and engine are in excellent condition as is the running gear. We do not import any vehicles that do not pass our stringent tests in the UK and that have not been ‘pre loved' by their owners. We ensure that all of our vehicles have great bones. cosmetics can be done to taste. but you have a superb foundation.

If this vehicle captures your attention as it did ours when we saw it for sale by an elderly gentleman owner in the UK. then please get in touch asap using our contact form or alternatively give us a call.

As vehicle is advertised elsewhere I reserve the right to end auction early/cancel. Please remember this is a classic vehicle. you are not bidding to buy a new Kia with a 100. 00 mile warranty.
