1990 Mercedes-Benz 240GD Military
The Mercedes-Benz 240GD “Gelandewagen” is one of the most rugged and iconic four-wheel drives ever built. Originally designed for military service, the 240GD was engineered to handle the harshest environments with unflinching reliability.
This 1990 example, finished in authentic Military Green, is a genuine military-spec vehicle imported into Australia. With only 832 km showing on the odometer, it starts, runs, and drives, offering an exceptional foundation for enthusiasts seeking an original ex-service machine or a unique project base.
Powered by Mercedes’ durable 2.4-litre diesel engine paired with a manual transmission, the 240GD is celebrated for its simplicity, toughness, and go-anywhere capability. Built to last, these military G-Wagens were deployed around the world, earning a reputation as indestructible workhorses trusted by armies and peacekeeping forces alike.
The cultural significance of the 240GD cannot be overstated. It laid the groundwork for the civilian G-Class, a model that has become a global luxury icon while retaining the unmistakable silhouette and DNA of its military ancestors. Today’s high-end G-Wagens owe their prestige and design to utilitarian heroes like this 240GD, which proved Mercedes could combine strength, reliability, and timeless style in one package.
