Edmunds has some good historical information on this vehicle but not pricing:   http://www.edmunds.com/reviews/generations/articles/102468/articl- - - e.html   As for pricing, this is the kind of vehicle where you should really get a professional appraisal, so you know where you stand. Being a gray market truck in 1985 means you really can't price them against the newer US models very accurately.   Sometimes if you cruise on Google, you can find a couple 80s models for sale. I saw a 1989 for sale through a dealer for $13,500 but just offhand that seems pretty high, and this one was four years newer and with very low miles. So I dunno.   What you need to do is a lot of Internet research to come to an accurate number I think. You may find more comparables for sale in Europe than in the US, say through searches on Ebay.com, which is fine, since with Ebay and the INternet we now enjoy a much more "international" market for unusual cars and trucks.   As for where to sell, I think www.hemmings.com is one good place and the bulletin boards of any G-Wagon clubs would be another good place. And don't forget Ebay--this type of "vintage SUV" might do very well there. Just be sure to include LOTS of pictures and a good deal of detailed description if you do an Ebay auction.

Must be a unique vehicle; no one is talking about it.   Steve, Host

Either that or you have to be sworn to secrecy in order to own a G-wagen.   Steve, Host

Replying to: makaye (May 02, 2005 7:04 pm) When is a G Wagon Not a G Wagon?   When it is that thing. It looks like anybodys SUV. All wrong for a true G imo.   M Replies to this message: steve_ (May 03, 2005 9:55 pm)

Replying to: merc1 (May 03, 2005 4:00 am) Oh dear. I bet the external rain gutters got lost in the translation too. Someone mentioned the G-Wagon in the Mazda chat tonight (chat topics go all over ), but I've been on holiday for a few days and didn't realize it was changing this much.   Steve, Host

The G Wagon is a world wide desert/all terrain military vehicle. That was its appeal to me. Granted it was old and basic, however so is the scout and that is one of the best offroaders.
