Hi guys!

A neighbor of mine has his 1983 300GD G-Wagen up for sale!

I gave it a quick look. It looks to be in good shape. It is equipped with the OM617NA and a 4-speed and AC!

Everything else is manual.

He's asking around $20K for it, but I'm sure I can talk him down.

So, the questions are:

* How hard are these to get parts and service for?
* What problems are common to these models?
* Would it be a good idea to pick this up as a daily driver?
* Anything else?

I've always been really intrigued by these and have wanted one for a long time, but now that one is available, I'm hesitating.

I'd really appreciate your honest advice.

Sincerely,

Packman
