A true icon reborn, this 1986 Mercedes-Benz G280 blends timeless ruggedness with a bold, modern aesthetic. 12,643 miles. Originally built for endurance, this two-door off-roader has been meticulously reimagined, now draped in a stealthy matte gray finish that contrasts beautifully with the classic red Mercedes accents—a subtle nod to its heritage.
Beneath the hood, the legendary 2.8L inline-six engine has been carefully tuned for reliable performance, delivering an ideal balance of power and refinement. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, this G-Wagen retains its raw, mechanical charm while benefiting from modernized components for enhanced drivability.
The exterior is a masterclass in understated aggression. A custom front grille, LED headlights, and matte black trim give it a contemporary edge, while widened fender flares and off-road-ready wheels ensure it remains as capable as ever. The iconic boxy silhouette stays true to its roots, but every line and curve has been enhanced for a commanding presence on or off the road.
And when adventure calls, the removable soft top transforms this G280 into an open-air experience. Crafted from heavy-duty, all-weather fabric, the top can be easily removed or secured, giving you the freedom to embrace the elements. Whether you’re cruising under the city lights or tackling rugged terrain beneath the open sky, this feature elevates the driving experience, blending classic safari vibes with modern versatility.
Step inside, and you’re met with a reimagined interior. Hand-stitched leather seats in black with red contrast, and a modern digital dash upgrade bring the cockpit into the 21st century. A premium sound system, Bluetooth integration, touch screen display and dashcam with front and rear view provide a refined, tech-forward experience while preserving the G-Wagen’s rugged character.
Built to stand out but engineered to endure, this restored 1986 G280 is a perfect fusion of heritage and innovation—a true testament to Mercedes-Benz’s legacy of excellence.
