Customer vehicles in use, whether off-road or off-road ....

Currently, the Federal Motor Vehicle Agency noticed a stock of 13,400 registered G classes in Germany.

With simple mathematics, the G is a rare vehicle. We have a stock of vehicles in Germany of 64 million cars, the stock of G-Class is thus below 0.2%. All G-models were manufactured in Graz at Magna Steir (formerly Steir Puch), the specialist for off-road Vehicles. Here only vehicles with excellent long-term quality leave the production lines, as evidenced by the fact that 2/3 of all G-Classes ever built are still on their own axis. The historic Mercedes GDie G-Class is now 40 years old and thus by law a classic, the first vehicles already carry the "H" license plate for historic cars.Automobile rarities, such as stable Mercedes G classic with "H" license plate, rare As well as sought-after models from Mercedes series, have a large fanbase and lovers. The idea of using a historic vehicle as an investment, inevitably urges itself. In particular, the Mercedes G offers with its exceptional long-term quality the best conditions even after decades to have a vehicle instead a heap of rust, which is held together by Lack.Im unlike securities or other fixed assets you have in addition to the property still the great advantage that you have a lot of driving pleasure and above all park your investment in your garage. The GFG offers you in addition to original restorations, every imaginable restoration and tuning conversions of historic G models: from the completely restored W 460 with 160hp turbo diesel to the historic "Wolf" with 300hp V8 and Porsche 928 manual transmission. Due to the variety of special vehicles and bodies in the production history, an incredible wealth of variations can be found on any frame of the early production years realize on bodies and yet an H-plate is possible.
The W 461 series is an ideal base vehicle for restorations on historic chassis. The product range from 1989 to 2018 is divided into the simpler 461 series (Spartan equipment) and the luxurious 463 series (powerful engines, luxurious equipment) auf..The 461er series is ideal Base vehicle available for long-distance travel purposes with more than 4 tonnes gross vehicle weight. For vehicles (W 463) of the last years of the Mercedes Benz G delivery program applies: Performance in abundance (especially in 400 CDI), high off-road capability with appropriate Umbereifung (standard differential locks, good slope angle, high ground clearance), technical overkill (at least the 400 CDI with Biturbo diesel and equipment with all finesse), quite high payload (up to almost 800 kg), priced and as a base for a long-haul vehicle expensive and actually too bad. To what extent you want to retrofit such a vehicle, everyone has to decide for themselves. In this respect, the long version of the 270 CDI is certainly the more sensible choice compared to the 400 CDI despite the modest power reserves (156 hp and 400 Nm compared to 250 hp and 560 Nm), especially since the 400 CDI's standard tires are completely unsuitable for demanding terrain. Without a doubt, a slightly older specimen, such as a 350 GD or 300 GD, is a good choice for a long-haul Mercedes-Benz G based on the less complex engine management and simpler features. Of course, the advantages of the rather spacious body with sufficient internal height also offer the newer models. On functional accessories you will also get everything for the Benz G, which makes sense, good and expensive.
