If this listing is up, it is available. 1988 240GD Wolf (Military) G-Wagon (gelandewagen). Valid NH registration & plates, which is equivalent of a title in MA. Runs & drives as it should.

Our Take:
- Military Roots: The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 240GD, commonly referred to as the "Wolf," was originally designed for military use. Its robust build and off-road capabilities make it a fascinating piece of automotive history, especially for those interested in vehicles with a rugged past. Imagine all the terrains it would've conquered back in its service days.
- Engineering Marvel: Part of the W460 series, this 240GD is known for its bulletproof 4-cylinder diesel engine. The fact that these engines could rack up a million miles is a testament to Mercedes’ commitment to durability. For any diesel enthusiast, that’s music to the ears, isn’t it?
- Manual Transmission Delight: Equipped with a 4-speed manual transmission, this model offers a driving experience that harks back to a more engaging era of motoring. The inclusion of locking differentials makes it not only a reliable highway cruiser but also a formidable off-roader—something you don't find every day in modern SUVs.
- Maintained and Ready: With recent work including new oil and fuel filters, cleaned fuel tank, and new tires, this G-Wagon shows signs of being well-maintained. It’s like giving an old warhorse a fresh set of horseshoes; this rig is ready for the road—or no road at all!
