Hi Guys, I too am looking for a SWB 3litre petrol G wagon, and have a few questions.. How reliable is the autobox in a car from say 1991/2?, does anyone do an LPG conversion on this car? Are they prone to rust like Discoveries, any pitfalls to look out for on the SWB version.. servicing costs.. thanx guys.. am dead keen to add one to my collection..have 8k to spend..

oh and i have to have a RHD model.. or the wife will say no!!

 

[G7Wagen]

also cant find anywhere to get decent insurance quote online... anyone reccommend none of the comparidon sites list the G-wagon.. was it ever officially imported or are the older ones grey imports?

thank you
