Seller's comments about 1986' Mercedes-Benz G Class
Mercedes-Benz G-Class: A Timeless IconFor decades, the Mercedes G-Class has been an off-road legend—loved, cherished, and still bought new by enthusiasts worldwide. It’s easy to see why: it possesses that same no-nonsense character as, for example, a Land Rover Defender—at least during these production years. Straightforward, honest, and packed with personality. The only major difference? Generally speaking, the Benz is built just a little bit better.Aesthetics & HeritageLet’s talk about our specific model, which features a fantastic retro color combination. Mercedes calls this metallic paint "Champagner." That name alone is enough to make you smile (#bubbles2bubbles), though we think it leans more toward a rich gold. Combined with the brown and gold checkered interior, it is—in a word—superb.This specimen was first registered in Germany in December 1986. For Dutch buyers, this means it qualifies for the favorable transitional road tax (MRB) rate, provided you keep it off the road during December, January, and February.Condition: Restored to PerfectionAccompanying the car is a thick folder bursting with invoices. The records from the last few years, in particular, highlight the incredible condition this vehicle is in today. Roughly €40, 000 has been invested to bring this G-Class to its current peak state.Body & Chassis: Fully restored, repainted, and fitted with new seals and rubbers.Interior: In absolute top-tier condition.The Driving ExperienceGetting behind the wheel feels like stepping back in time—specifically in an SUV from that era. Actually, let’s just call it what it is: an off-roader for the public road. You might expect a clumsy, rough beast, but it’s surprisingly refined. You could easily use this as a daily driver. Sure, it’s a bit spartan, but it’s a wonderful companion. Plus, you can hitch a heavy trailer to the back should you decide to move to a cabin in the woods—where, let’s be honest, it would look right at home.Maintenance & HistoryAs mentioned, there is a massive file of invoices covering all recent maintenance. Additionally, the original service booklet is present, stamped up until 1999. From that point on, everything has been documented through official dealer invoices. The history of this beautiful G-Class is crystal clear from A to Z.
