This rare 300 GD with a long wheelbase is a left-hand-drive model and is registered in Italy. With a verifiable mileage of 145,323 kilometers, two previous owners, and a complete service history, the vehicle has a well-documented history. What makes its ownership history special is its family connection: The Mercedes was previously owned by the current owner’s grandfather and was stored in a dry condition in a large courtyard garage for many years. Later, with the support of Penta Garage in Italy, it underwent restoration and was converted into a compact overland camper, with approximately 80% of the modifications being reversible. Currently, a turbo-diesel engine is installed, while the original non-turbo diesel engine is included in the sale. Extensive work on the suspension, brakes, cooling system, engine, electrical system, interior, and camper equipment is documented; a total of approximately €29,500 was invested in mechanical work, restoration, conversion, accessories, and labor. The last service was performed in December 2025. The vehicle is registered, runs reliably, and shows no problems even during cold starts. According to the description, the body and paint are in very good condition and have not been repainted, while the interior, with slight age-related signs of wear, is described as good. Minor cosmetic marks and patina are consistent with the age of this classic vehicle, which is over 40 years old. The TÜV inspection is valid through December 2027; it does not have an “H” license plate. With its rare combination of a classic W460 chassis, verifiable mileage, documented family history, extensive investments, and largely reversible Overland conversion, this 300 GD offers an interesting opportunity for enthusiasts of classic G-Class models seeking a versatile vehicle.
