My truck is a Mercedes G class 230 GE from 1988, limited anniversary edition ( only 300 pieces were build in 88 ). The first owner was Mercedes Benz Romania ( it was a showroom car ) then the owner of a Romanian company that produces for Mercedes wood ornaments and finally me.

Major modification...let's see: first I replaced the original small engine with a bigger one ( 3 liter gas engine from a Mercedes S class -1996, 225 HP. 100 HP more then the original engine) . Then a manual 5 speed gear box - from a diesel Mercedes van ( good torque) . Most difficult was to make them fit together. After that a suspension body lift and 33'' Goodyear MT tyres. Then custom made front and rear protection, and bigger fender flares. In a couple of days it is going to receive a custom made snorkel and a Warn front winch.

I go wheeling in Carpathian Mountains ( incredible beautiful landscapes and lots of wild life ); the terrain is a mixture of rocks and mud . I also like wheeling in Danube Delta area ( it's like you go back in time ).
