If, like us here at The Coolector, you love classic cars with a bit of a military vibe, the guys at Collecting Cars have definitely got the lot for you in the shape of this 1987 MERCEDES-BENZ (W460) which is up for sale on their site as we speak. With just 14k on the clock, this W460-generation Mercedes-Benz 240GD is a rugged modern classic ex-military ‘Geländewagen’ and will definitely appeal to those with a love of military nostalgia.
This 1987 Mercedes-Benz (W460) is powered by a naturally aspirated 2.4-litre ‘OM616’ diesel inline-four producing around 71bhp, with a four-speed manual transmission and the 240GD was originally delivered to the Singapore Army, before being imported into the UK and registered with the DVLA in April 2022. It is finished in green with black trim accents, over a dark green vinyl-trimmed interior and has the sort of old school appeal that is going to resonate with collectors.
Impressive both from an aesthetic and performance perspective, this 1987 Mercedes-Benz from Collecting Cars rides on a set of 16-inch steel wheels, finished in gloss black, and shod with Michelin 4×4 O/R tyres. The factory specification includes a locking rear differential, protective headlight grilles, front towing couplings, a trailer hitch hook, a two-bar steering wheel, folding rear seats, a tailgate-mounted spare wheel, front and rear seat belts, and rear load bay storage.
This fantastic looking W460-generation Mercedes-Benz 240GD is a no-nonsense, what you see is what you get, ex-military example of the marque’s iconic modern classic 4×4, which was used by the Singapore Army and recently imported into the UK. Presented in honest, original condition, it would make a awesome addition to any collection of military vehicles, not to mention a highly capable, eye-catching companion for weekend jaunts and off-road adventures alike.
