When G wagens could be bought for buttons, pre kids, no stresses and lots of fun to be had.... These were taken in about 2002

The green one was a 280 manual 4 speed, my favorite of all my G's. The white one was my pals and an auto 280, as was the black and silver, it had black leather recaros. :) i had a few more but no photos have surfaced of those yet.

 

After rolling the green one i ran it until mot expired and flogged it to a guy who put it in his garden for about 12 yrs. it is now back on the road i believe. It had a wee twist to the A pillar and a cracked winscreen after the roll. :)

I would have the AMG if I won the lottery.

 

Did you know the great Stanley Kubrick drove one?

What sort of prices did they bottom out at?

The white and green ones were cheap at the time at £600 each. The black one i had a few years earlier. Maybe 1997 so was only 10 years old or so. It had leather recaros and wood trim etc, about 75k and a 3 door in black and silver, i remember paying £2700 for it.

I love G wagens. However, it seems lots of people with lots of money also do nowadays. Shame as this is how they should be getting used

There is an utterly hanging but worthy E reg swb example of one of these still being used by a local Mercedes fanatic. He has several more in his garden.

 

Shame the Kardashans ruined the image of these as I always enjoy seeing a proper one like yours.
