Description
Off-road vehicle icon. Developed at the instigation of the Shah v. Persia in cooperation with Puch. Development began in 1975 and delivery of the first civilian G models began in 1979. The simpler body variant. with the registration W460 was manufactured until 1990.
Offering a well-maintained 280GE Autom. from the first series for sale. Narrow axes, or those that are intrusive. Fender burns, real rarity. You almost never see the model at classic car meetings. Two-wing rear door. D First delivery. The running is plausible and understandable.
A first series G-Class in this condition is difficult to come by and has long been considered a real classic.
The car has no gel. seen and always maintained. There is a folder with receipts and evidence of the carried out. Work. Finally, a rustproof one was added. and renovated steel tank and new dampers installed. Over the winter I had the rear wheel arches professionally refinished by a sheet metal professional, as it should be. Exposing the critical areas, cutting out unhealthy sheet metal, inserting new sheet metal very cleanly and painting it very well.
The interior is very well maintained with the optional Recaro seats in gray MB check fabric. The predominant use of lambskin protective covers is reflected here in almost virginal fabric covers. The car runs very reliably. and is sufficiently motorized with the six-cylinder.
The frame is in very good condition. The subfloor and the cavities were repeatedly sealed with transparent wax. The car has been partially repainted over the years as part of the sheet metal work that affects almost every W460/ W463. This was carried out professionally with supporting documents.
The swivel arm with the spare wheel is available. The wheels and tires were replaced in 2021. There is a new and unused winter wheelset from 2022 that is part of the offer. Trailer hitch.
The steering gear was replaced and the cylinder head overhauled. New starter. Speedometer overhauled at Kaja, fresh service with automatic transmission flush, stabilizer bearing replaced, new front brakes, rear brake drum overhauled, new ignition harness. Finally, the warm-up regulator was replaced and a new fuel pump with fuel filter was installed.
During the last sheet metal work, a very good original sheet metal tank was renovated and installed with the hoses and filler necks replaced. And much more. Documents will be handed over to the buyer. Invoice documents amounting to of around 39, 000 euros since 2017 are available and confirm the continuous maintenance of the car.
The first vehicle registration document is available. Both I and the supervisor rarely drove the car, mostly to classic car meetings.
There are 2 WGA from the years 2019/ 2023 which show the good condition. A condition grade of 2 is awarded with a replacement value of 40, 500 euros. That was before another approximately 10, 000 euros were invested in 2023/ 24. The value has now increased again.
The car is fully suitable for everyday use. and enriches every classic car meeting. A veteran of German automotive history, with an H license plate. and old verse. also dirt cheap to maintain. The G is registered and can be test driven.
Trade-in/ exchange, value adjustment possible in both directions. Would be interested in Porsche 996C2 hand switch (either with a built engine with cylinder liners or so cheap that the approx. 12, 000 euros for overhaul at Skramovsky are still included), 996 Turbo hand switch, 928S4 hand switch, 997. 2 facelift from year 2008. Each in condition 2 - or better, with a transparent history, possibly also Renault Clio V6. Very Rare First Series
