Today, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class or G-Wagon is a highly luxurious, retro-styled SUV with a healthy dose of off-road capability under its belt. But how the G-Class came to be is rather different in comparison. Initially, the vehicle was developed for military use, on a suggestion by the Shah of Iran, way back in the 1970s. By 1979, Mercedes-Benz had created a civilian version and named it the G-Class. Now that we’ve given you a brief overview, let us introduce our subject vehicle. This Ex-Austrian Military 1994 Puch Mercedes-Benz 230GE comes from the pre-luxury era, a W461 variant that’s undergone a full restoration to bring it up to the condition that you see in our photos. With just 350 miles covered since restoration, the vehicle currently resides in Chula Vista, California, waiting for a new owner. Let us tell you that this G-Class isn’t the bling-adorned, leather-drenched variety that you might see on Sunset Boulevard. No, it’s more of a tough-as-nails off-road-conqueror. So if you are the kind of person who likes to drive as far away from the civilization of the city as possible, this vehicle can take you there – and it’s got some decent comfort features, too.
