Mercedes-Benz 463
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class was launched in 1979 as a military off-road vehicle. The vehicle's robust character and off-road capabilities make the Geländewagen (roughly translated as off-road vehicle) the vehicle of choice for the Dutch (since 1992) and German armies, as well as countless security units worldwide. In its now well-over-forty-year existence, the exterior has hardly changed. However, the engines have been constantly replaced, and the interior has received a refresh over the years. In 2009, the G-Class 30th Edition was launched as a special anniversary model. The Mercedes-Benz G-Class is available in various body styles, namely a pickup, ambulance, van, a short station wagon, a long station wagon, a convertible, a military scout vehicle, and an extended version with rear doors. The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has had four designations throughout the years: 460, which was the first G-Class; 462, which was assembled in Greece for the army.

In its more than forty years of existence, the exterior has hardly changed. However, the engines have been replaced regularly and the interior has been given a makeover over the years. In 2009, the G-Class 30th Edition came onto the market, as a special anniversary model.

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has had four types over the years: 460, this was the first G-Class, 462 was assembled in Greece for the army. In 1990 the 463 Baureihe was released, a luxurious version with an interior that was more reminiscent of a passenger car. Because the 463 had actually become too luxurious, the 461 was released. This simpler version with fabric upholstery and a simple interior was available for a long time for utility customers such as farmers, fire brigades, construction, etc.
Both diesel and petrol versions have been introduced to the market. Almost all of the heavier Mercedes-Benz passenger car engines have found their place under the bonnet in the G-Class. The G-Class is characterised today by its classic appearance, its rare appearance and its luxurious interior, which is no less than the Mercedes top-class sedans.
The G-Class is one of the most value-retaining cars currently for sale. Demand for the G-Class is extremely high, and since the rising popularity of the SUV segment, sales have increased sharply, primarily in the United States.
This G-Class presented here concerns a 320 L in AMG version. It was delivered in Japan at the time and ran there until 2020. It has had the proverbial maintenance and still drives great. Furthermore, this G is in AMG version, which means that it is extra luxurious on the inside and nothing is missing. The body looks like new and the interior as well. There are the booklets and also the Japanese maintenance.
This G-320 is a perfect street and off-road car for the Mercedes enthusiast.
