Model history

The Mercedes-Benz G 230 GE, in this variant as a Puch Cabrio, comes from the legendary G-Class series, which was originally developed for military use. In Switzerland, several models rolled off the production line under the Puch brand - technically identical to their Mercedes brothers. Robust, angular and uncompromisingly suitable for off-road use, the G 230 GE was equipped with a powerful in-line engine and all-wheel drive. Today, the convertible versions are among the most sought-after collector's items - especially when, as here, a fully restored example with an exceptional look is available.

      Hallo andre.sierek, laut Fahrzeugschein ist der Wagen 205,8cm hoch, 465cm lang und 178cm breit. Wir haben den Verkäufer kontaktiert und gefragt, ob die Maße im Schein den aktuellen Maßen entsprechen. Sobald wir eine Rückmeldung haben, melden wir uns. Beste Grüße - Kickdown Team

        Vom Verkäufer haben wir die Aussage erhalten, dass die ca. 206cm Höhe aus dem Fahrzeugschein in etwa der aktuellen Höhe entsprechen, wobei der Schnorchel nochmals ca. 10 cm höher ist, dieser aber gekürzt werden kann. Beste Grüße - Kickdown Team

      Technik: Die G-Klasse (oder auch G-Modell; G steht für Geländewagen) ist eine Modellreihe von Mercedes-Benz, die seit 1979 produziert wird. Sie wurde in Kooperation mit dem österreichischen Steyr-Daimler-Puch-Konzern entwickelt und wird in Graz in der Steiermark hergestellt. Bis 2000 wurde die Klasse in Österreich und einigen anderen Ländern unter der Marke Puch G verkauft. Die Karosserieform des Fahrzeuges wurde zwischen 1979 und 2018 kaum verändert, technisch erfuhr es aber immer wieder Verbesserungen und Aktualisierungen. Diese betrafen vor allem Motoren, das Interieur und Sicherheitsmerkmale. Die Produktion des geschlossenen Modells mit kurzem Radstand wurde 2012 eingestellt, die Fertigung des Cabriolets 2013. 2018 präsentierte Mercedes-Benz eine komplett neue Generation, an der das äußere Erscheinungsbild nur geringfügig verändert wurde. 2016 erreichte Mercedes-Benz einen neuen Absatzrekord mit knapp 20.000 verkauften Einheiten innerhalb eines Jahres und baute von 1979 bis April 2023 insgesamt über 500.000 Fahrzeuge. Ältere Modelle sind als Oldtimer sehr gefragt. LG Tom
