I was just wondering since the G design has been around for quite some time... when is it due to get redesigned?

Considering this is its first year on the official US market, I don't see the G-class being redesigned for a while yet.

I posted this not too long ago too. I thought I saw somewhere they were planning a redesign in '05, and Oli from Stuttgart said he heard the same thing..

Hi to all,

I'm pretty sure that there will no "real" redesign in the next few years, until the real "new" G-model will be presented in 2005
(perhaps 2005 ...)

The old stlye of the G has (at least in europe) made this
car a unique "cult" car in the last years.

I'm not sure if all of you know, that the G-model is produced
since 1979 in almost the same apperance. Attached a pic of
an early long wheel base W460 (probably 280GE)

If one is interested in more information, have a look at http://www.g4rce.net/engl/index.html (not my site, it's from Arnd Goetz) which is very well done, with pretty much information about the former series 460, 461 (also short wheelbase, military version, ...)

Looks very contemporary.

Just saw one in the Palestinian Refugee Camp on TV.
