1979 MERCEDES G-WAGON 240GD

Old 5 pot workhorse, these fetch strong money though. In UK.

4 cylinders as a 240GD. And absolutely no power at all! Really, not a single one.  :mrgreen:  The 5-pot is the 300GD.

Everyone knows you can unbolt the roof from your Herald/Vitesse and drive it round like a convertible. But the saloon is completely different from the doors back, so what do you do if you want a proper convertible folding roof? 

 

You buy a Tristran convertible kit.

Defining features: Looks terrible when the roof is up AND down!!!

The car has the original engineers report  for when it was converted

 

Report: owner has unbolted a thing and bolted another thing in its place.

Seeing as this is only an hour away and actually has some shite credentials (unlike a certain small blue car), and because I actually kinda' like ZX's and estates, I feel obliged to bid on it.

 

 

 

 

So I did. It's even got my favourite; TSW five spoke alloys!

Do these have oinga oinga, or squirt squirt suspension?

It's got windy metal things so very conventional by Citroen standards but they have that weird tucked up system that C15's have. Pre-arse, posh, afro-Clarkson (he's even annoyed that the cat was optional!)  talks about it's normalcy in this ye olde top gear video
