The Mercedes-Benz G-Class, introduced in 1979, was initially designed as a military vehicle before evolving into a civilian off-road model. The 240 GD variant was part of the first generation, known for its simple yet durable construction. Built to handle rough terrains, it became a popular choice among off-road enthusiasts, military forces, and emergency services worldwide. Over the decades, the G-Class has maintained its reputation as a capable and reliable vehicle, with early diesel models valued for their ruggedness.
