I am selling my 1988 Mercedes Benz G300d W460. I bought this car in February from the original owner in the UK and
had it imported to the US. It is in very good condition - only 66, 000 original miles. The owner told me he had it
stored in his neighbor's barn since 2004 (after successfully passing its MOT inspection). Since I got it out of the
barn and sent to Texas, I haven't done anything to it. It starts right up and drives without a problem, but I have
only driven it on to and off of trailers and around the port, so I can't speak to how well it would do on a long
road trip or at high speeds, but nothing would tell me there would be a problem. The best part of this car is the
lack of rust - The pictures probably don't do it justice as to just how clean this car is underneath - the original
paint in the wheel arches still shines and the chassis is the original black - not wax oiled or anything. The only
rust on the body is around one of the tail light bezels and there are a couple of dents on the hood (looks like the
hood got opened with a little too much excitement at some point). But other than that, the body is very straight
and the paint is all original. It has the original 3.0L OM617.931 Inline 5 cylinder diesel engine that is legendary
for its dependability and longevity.
