Vehicle description

Classic Car Club Miami is proud to offer,
This real deal 240GD is powered by a Mercedes Benz 4 cylinder, diesel truck motor. It currently has only 35,000 miles, which if you know Mercedes diesels, makes this barely broken in. With the proper care and maintenance, these diesels will go 1,000,000 miles or more! There is nothing more bulletproof than this motor. Before you read any further, if you don"t know what a 240GD is, just Google it and watch a few of the videos. There is nothing more competent off-road than this vehicle. The G refers to it being in the Mercedes G Class and the D refers to it being a diesel motor.
This truck was decommissioned earlier in 2016 from Bundeswehr (German military use) and it was legally imported from Germany. Religious, old school, military maintenance was performed during its military service in Germany. It was meticulously serviced at all intervals throughout its life. This truck significantly stands out from the common NATO trucks. Mechanically, this truck is top notch. I have driven it for over a four years on city streets and in the Florida Everglades and it has ZERO issues. ZERO. The upholstery is all tastefully redone in carbon fiber marine grade with white stitching in very nice condition. I have taken a pic of this for you. The exterior is also very nice for used military truck. For me, its authenticity as a retired military G-Wagon is reflected in these little battle wounds. The paint is a camo military-grade paint. You can"t buy it anywhere. It has a special coating that was made to be durable against trees and brush when it was driven off-raod, and it also makes it more difficult to be seen by night-vision goggles. .not that you will need this feature:) This truck is super solid and heavy.
This was either the first 240GD imported into the US, or very close to it. Most of the retired military G"s seen for sale in the USA are not restored to European standards as this one was that started to the whole trend many years ago. I believe that this is the only honest 240GD for sale in the USA right now. .
Here are a few Interesting facts about the Mercedes Benz 240GD : The 240 GD Wolf production started at the beginning of the 1987s, and only around 12,500 vehicles were delivered to the Bundeswehr. This is the series 461.4 with some special features that distinguish the vehicle from its civilian counterparts. It is more powerful in comparison to the previous and more common 230G. This truck has 22 more horsepower. It will easily cruise at 60-65MPH, with a top speed around 70MPH. Because this is an imported vehicle from Germany, the VIN I entered is incorrect and had to be modified to fit the US/ standards. However, it does have a legally imported VIN of WDB461 31017053269 and I do have a clear, Florida title.
24-volt vehicle electrical system (adjustment with respect to NATO standards. military radio equipment etc. Half doors with roll up glass windows Foldable front windshield Black carbon fiber style, marine grade cover all four individual seats with white stitching; fresh rhino lining cover the floor with C rails for Rüstsatzmontage. Rear flooring is covered with heavy duty rubber mat 4-speed, heavy-duty gearbox Military blackout lighting (Tarnkreis) with dimmer for front headlights Rüstsatzspezifischeinternals lashing rings) The mileage and speedo is displayed in kilometers, which I converted to miles for the ad Please do keep in mind you are bidding on a pre-owned vehicle, so it is not new.

Based on a few questions I have been asked, I wanted to add that the spare tire is BRAND new and has never touched the ground. The other tires are like 95%. They are like new and still have a lot of the rubber knobs on them. The are original German military grade tires. Also, the 2 batteries is new and was bought less than a year ago. All you have to do is turn the key, wait for the glow plug light to go off, and start her up. I would not hesitate to drive this across the country.
You can restore , customize into a monster retro mod or simply drive it & enjoy it as is with patina that can only be acquired with age. .
