Description

This Mercedes Benz 230GE Convertible from 1983 isreally unique because of its engine and gearbox making it a fast & fun off roader. The car is not perfect but it is fully operational and very powerful. It has no structural rust and needs nothingexcept a missing side blinker (A new one will be mounted before the car goes to a new home).Itspreparation is more oriented for fastoff road tracks and/or urban commuting rather than rock crawling as its gear ratio and high RPMs engine, eels more comfortable in these terrains. I own 3 G-Wagens and this one needs to go as I need the space.
