Would like to hear any feed back from anyone who has or had one.Just purchased a 1988 s/w 300d.Chassis is near mint but body is falling foul to spots of rust.
I am still mourning the sale of my 90.The birth of fourth ankle biter payed fairwell to it.This was a chance buy at reasonable money to use for lamping,stalking etc.
A point in that direction would be usefull.The rear n/s back quater,light panel and door hinge have fallen foul to rust.Tried to get poverty panels from factors but all say it is a merc only part from Germany.Priced up some bits and had to pick myself up of the floor.
When I was in the Middle East my boss bought a G55 for duning. It was mad off road and very difficult to get stuck.
As said with the right tyres it's excellent, 3 diff locks if I recall which is only an option on the 70 series Land Cruiser - which I'd consider it's closest off road rival.
After that, the next step up is a unimog!
