SUMMARY
A desirable right-hand drive short-wheelbase example of Mercedes' ubiquitous G-Wagen.
DESCRIPTION
- This 300GD SWB was originally a Mercedes demonstrator, followed by one keeper and our vendor for the last 34 years
- Fitted with M-B's bomb-proof, five-cylinder diesel coupled to a 5-speed manual gearbox with high and low drive
- Finished in Champagne Gold Metallic with an attractive tan leather and chequered plaid cloth interior
- This particular example benefits from the addition of a trim upgrade which includes wooden door caps and dash veneers
- The history file supports the indicated mileage of 119,400 and illustrates the maintenance lavished on this popular SUV
- During 2021, the car had around £4,000 invested in its upkeep
- Supplied with a number of spares and is MOT'd until the end of September 2024
- These are very popular SUVs, even more so being a SWB and, with such low ownership, would make a great buy
