This G300 Professional is a robust and very well-equipped 4x4, with strong service history and relatively low mileage. Its engine is a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 diesel, delivering around 135kW and 400Nm of torque to all four wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission, with high and low-range gearing and three differential locks. Understood to be a 2018 model, it was first registered in March 2019. With the desirable ‘Edition Pur’ option package, this G300 features a rear cargo barrier, roof rack, walk-on bonnet, heated seats, and electric side mirrors. The odometer shows 55,100 km. The G300 Professional was available exclusively in Australia, as a byproduct of the Australian Defence Force’s (ADF) adoption of the G-Class to its vehicle fleet. As such, the G-Professional range was equipped with the same heavy-duty chassis as those vehicles supplied to the ADF, along with other off-road focused equipment, and underbody protection. Standard equipment includes the bull bar, snorkel, 16-inch wheels, water drain plug in the cabin floor, two 12-volt batteries, high-capacity 96-litre fuel tank, tyre pressure monitoring, headlight guards, and radiator and sump shields. This G300 was ordered with the ‘Edition Pur’ package at a cost of around $10,000, which adds heated leather seats, a radio/CD player, roof rack, robust walk-on bonnet, electric door mirrors, side running boards, tow bar, and wood flooring in the cargo area. Additional equipment fitted to this example includes the winch, UHF radio, 55-litre water tank, auxiliary 60-litre fuel tank, ARB air compressor, third lithium battery, remote central locking, sound deadening and insulation, Bluetooth head unit, rear-view camera, and dashcam. The owner’s manual and other other books remain with the car in the leather pouch, as well as a set of keys as shown. Please refer to photo gallery to assess exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a very minor scratch on the top right rear of the vehicle, very minor fine scratches on the metal around gear shifter, and some ‘wear and tear’ in the load space from use. The seller is not aware of any mechanical or electrical faults. The last scheduled maintenance was in September 2023 at 55,076 km, which was a scheduled Year 4 service at Mercedes-Benz Alexandria. The service included the rear axle drive shaft bearing replacement as part of an urgent safety recall. The G300 was serviced in December 2022 at 39,166 km, which was a scheduled ‘Service A’ at Terrys Automotive Services in NSW. Prior to this, Mercedes-Benz Sydney carried out another ‘Service A’ in May 2022 at 27,851 km. The first service was carried out by Mercedes-Benz North Shore in NSW in May 2020 at 8,814 km. This Mercedes-Benz G300 Professional is a smart example of the iconic 4x4, built to a particularly robust specification in line with the ADF’s heavy duty off-roadsters, and boasting a raft of useful equipment including the desirable ‘Edition Pur’ package. Benefiting from a strong service history and with 55,100 km on the odometer, this rare G300 Professional is ready to continue servicing as a reliable workhorse or a great adventure vehicle.
