Vintage Motors Presents the 1984 Mercedes Benz Gelandenwagen 230GE

Vintage Motors offers expert vehicle inspections for buyers worldwide. Buying a classic car in South Africa? Let us handle it for you.

This 1984 Mercedes-Benz Gelandewagen (W460) 230GE is an almost original, Short Wheelbase (SWB) example of the legendary grade off-roader. Well-preserved and owned by its current custodian for nearly three years, this iconic 3-door SUV is presented in good running condition.

From both an engine and transmission perspective, this G-Wagon remains mechanically factory-original. Power comes from its matching-numbers 2.3L inline-four engine paired with its original manual transmission and dual shift mechanism for the front and rear differential locks. The mechanical system has been well maintained, with the starter motor having been recently replaced.

The interior presents beautifully, benefiting from recently reupholstered front seats that provide a clean and refreshed cabin experience. While the vehicle does not carry a formal service history and the odometer has rolled over—meaning the total exact mileage is unknown—the vehicle has been carefully looked after and remains a solid, drivable investment piece.

Located in Cape Town, South Africa
