Description:

For sale is my 2008 G55 AMG. This is a second owner car, previously the car was owned in West Palm Beach, Florida, before I acquired it. 

I immediately built my dream truck upon purchase, just before COVID.

During my ownership this went from a run of the mill, albeit supercharged, G-Wagen to a vehicle that has been the backbone of all of our family trips, on and off road.

I have a fully documented build thread on MBWorld.org here: 
https://mbworld.org/forums/g-class-w...so-begins.html

The truck has been flawless and I have taken it on many cross country trips, as well as trips to British Columbia with no issues.

We are no longer taking the truck on the adventures it deserves. Work has been our full time focus, and every time I see the truck sitting in the driveway I know there’s someone out there with limitless adventures that this truck deserves to take them on.

Currently has approx 95k on the odometer. 

I will be updating this ad with all of the latest work done and receipts as well as FCPEuro lifetime parts that I can work with the new owner to facilitate keeping wear items covered.

I will be doing some light maintenance to the truck in the coming weeks when I am back home, but wanted to get this ad up to get any potential buyers into conversation.

I’d pack my family up in a heartbeat and go anywhere in the world with this truck tomorrow. Dinner dates to back trails, this does it all with ease. 

The truck is sitting in my driveway in Los Angeles would love it to go to an enthusiast here on the forum to continue using it the way it should be.

I'm also open to any decent trades and cash, but looking to make this more of a cash move.

Build Sheet:

- All services done here in LA and Victoria, BC. Always on time if not early.

Suspension:

- Thor 2" lift springs all around

- FOX 2.0 Shocks all around

Tires:

- Truck comes with 5 mounted tires and a trail spare (not mounted on rim)

LT305/65R-18 BFGOODRICH ALL-TERRAIN T/A KO2 E

Brakes:

All brakes are covered by FCP Euro and we can work out how to keep things going.

SS Brake Lines

Tow Hitch:

Purchased GWagon Accessories tow hitch adapter and has a HD hitch, I've towed my 911 across country as well as a Scout Traveller and numerous motorcycle trailers. She's built for it. 

Interior:

- All interior components including headliner have been switched from beige to black (excluding overhead lamp)

- Wireless bluetooth radio using stock head unit

- Rear weather proof mat

Exterior:

- Ghobi rack and ladder

- Front Runner Jerry Can holder 

- 2 5 Gallon Wavian Gas Jerry Cans

- If you want to run the back spare on the door I have the GWagon Accessories locking cover. I usually run a spare in the boot and the trail spare on the roof
Also just put in a new 180A alternator. Getting Service A done next week. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

-Ian

Dropping asking price to $62k.

Have had some folks come check it out. But would definitely love to see it stay in the MBWorld community, than become another Los Angeles mall crawler.

Also the kids coming with cash may destroy this truck, so I've had to decline their offers.

Dropped to 50k, need gone to finance a quick purchase. Hell of a deal for someone looking to get into the g55 offroad game.
