1987 Mercedes G 230 Off Road Machine! on 2040-cars
Richmond, Virginia, United States
|
Very nice, very well optioned Mercedes G 230. You would never know this is a 1987. The interior is super clean. No tears or rips in the seats or dash. Blinkers, hazards, head lights, brake lights, bright lights all work as they should. Wipers and horn work as well. Alpine stereo with sub woofer mounted in rear of truck. Gauges all work as they should.
Body is in solid shape. Frame has no issues and is clean all the way around. Real deal off road tires with lift. Fuel injected motor that starts on the first turn every time and idles / runs beautifully. Shifts thru all five gears smoothly and efficiently. Truck has both front AND rear air lockers as well as a 10,000 lb winch! Air lockers work perfectly and allow this truck to be an incredible off road machine if that is your thing. If not, she runs and drives wonderfully on the road. I also have a set of road tires as well that I will include in the sale. Only known 'issues' are the window regulators will eventually be replaced. They both work but need a bit of 'help' rolling back up the first few inches before the regulator catches and does the rest. Also, the heater only works on high and rattles a bit. I haven't tended to either of these issues because, well, it doesn't affect driving the truck at all. The winch and airlocker system parts alone is $3k+ . This is a really fun truck to drive and if you are into off roading, you want this. All the hard work is done and she is turn key, ready to go. Around town or on the trail, you'll have a fun time driving her and look good doing it too! |

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.

New Mercedes Unimog debuts to the cheers of little boys everywhere [w/video]
Sat, 27 Apr 2013The Mercedes Unimog, the superhero villain of the off-road world that's just waiting to make the jump to Transformer, has been completely upgraded for its new generation. There are ten models, expanding the range and getting new designations across the traditional all-terrain series and the implement-carrier series. Panoramic cabins get more visibility, multifunction steering wheels and better dash clusters, improved HVAC and a three-mode central tire inflation system. Outside, there are new items like LED headlights and daytime running lamps in the bumper, roof-mounted windshield wipers and a front-camera monitor for the implement carrier.
The new engine lineup is compliant with Euro VI, featuring four- and six-cylinder BlueEfficiency engines putting out anywhere from 156 horsepower to 354 hp. Powerplant placement has also been tweaked, the chassis members getting a revised curve to place the engine a bit further back and lower, maintaining off-road clearance and lowering the Unimog's center of gravity. The new location of the engine means the cabin has more room, and the wheelbase is shorter. Combined with a higher turning angle, the Unimog has a smaller turning radius than before.
The implement carrier gets what's called a "synergistic traveling drive," the bonus being that drivers don't need to stop in order to use an attachment - a hydrostatic transmission works with the regular manual transmission at up to 31 kilometers per hour for seamless switching.
