Mercedes-Benz G-Klasse - Baureihe W 460 / W 461: Alle Modelle (1979-2000) - Praxisratgeber Klassikerkauf

The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, launched in 1979, is one of the longest-produced vehicles in the history of the automobile. By the time of its 25th anniversary in 2014, around 175 000 units of the monolithic classic had rolled off the production line at Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria.
Originally intended for the civilian commercial vehicle market and professional use by foresters, hunters, architects or riders, the G is now valued by its loyal fans as a robust utility vehicle, highly off-road sports equipment and multi-talented leisure vehicle thanks to its extreme off-road capabilities.

Specialist author and G-Class expert Jörg Sand has compiled the most important and helpful insider information for all W 460 and W 461 models built between 1979 and 2000 for this guide.
As usual, this volume presents itself as a compact guide and an indispensable tool for assessing the condition of a G-Class model for sale.

Here, anyone interested will find important tips on what to look out for when buying so as not to experience a nasty surprise later. In addition, a detailed section with important addresses and contacts complements this valuable companion.
