This W463-generation Mercedes-Benz 300 GE is a particularly smart and rare seven-seat long-wheelbase version of the iconic ‘Geländewagen’ 4x4, offered fresh from a recent major service. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.0-litre straight-six, delivering around 125kW to all four wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. This example was originally a Japan-delivered model, which was imported into Australia in December 2023, and has only recently been acquired by the seller. The odometer shows 156,181 Kms from new. This 300 GE is finished in a refined shade of grey over a black part vinyl and grey cloth-trimmed interior, punctuated by burred walnut veneer trim inlays. It rides on an aftermarket set of 20-inch A.R.T 10-spoke alloy wheels, shod in Nexen Roadian HP tyres. Equipment includes protective headlamp grilles, a heated rear screen, an electric sliding/lifting sunroof, three locking differentials, ‘Behr’ air conditioning, a high and low range gearbox, and a fold-down rear bench seat. This example has been fitted with a full HD front dashcam and a Pioneer Carrozzeria CD stereo with auxiliary input. The car comes with a warning triangle, a spare wheel, and invoices for recent maintenance. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: the bonnet, roof, rear bumper, and left-hand front wing have been repainted, there is a Proactive coating applied to the underside, minor interior wear and tear, and a hairline crack on the trim near the gear lever. This 300 GE’s most recent maintenance was carried out at around 156,000 Kms, which consisted of a major service, including all the fluids being replaced, as well as a general check-up. This long-wheelbase W463-generation Mercedes-Benz 300 GE is a particularly smart and rare seven-seat variant of the highly versatile modern classic 4x4, offered fresh from a recent major service.
