Nice one - congrats on your purchase. Will you be bringing it to the UK?
Any pics of the interior?
@maxwell when you see the proof maybe the avatar will change
and only on inspection of tax book chassis number and a BIG drink for all club members and large bribes for committee members lol
@ hussian nice one, get the dust of it as marcus said
true true chris this could just be a ploy to cover his shame, we need proof, a picture of you in the car with a box of eggs sitting on the bonnet, only then can we know you havent picked the pictures from the tinternet!
hehe

whats parked behind it?
Tom
Also another Merc parked besides it.
the guy that owns it is a merc specialist based in famagusta.he brought a year ago with no intention to sell it from a hummer dealer in lefkosa.
it was part-exchanged by the silly owner that spent over 80000 euros importing it to n-cyprus personally 3 years ago for a hummer h2,the G wasnt flash enough i think :shock: .........
one mans loss is a another mans gain.
it is covered in DUST aint the word for it :!:
the merc behind is a c class and the silver one on the right is a E55 :lol:
this G has small problem though....like most 463's :?
the converter is buggered apparantley and the new one is meant to be fitted on friday.
and then it will be waxed and polished ready for the summer :lol: :lol:
how much...... :?:
well,what is it worth here in the uk with full mbsh?
is that only 31k kilometers in the service history ?
and what year is it
nice one
it had 31000 miles when it was serviced last in 2005.
Huss, Don't mind the sceptics mate. I believe you.
Welcome to 463 ownership, now come see how the other half live for real.
That you maybe very luck with it and enjoy it for many years.
I look forward to seeing more pics when you have worked your magic on it.
Regards,
Mike
PS I don't suppose you and Marty are related by any chance or maybe just telepathic or something ? Another great find ends up in the right hands again.
cheers mike.
i am just waiting for the "converter" problem to be sorted before finalising the payment.
i didnt even have a chance to driving it..........!!
thats how i brought my cab a few years ago and very happy too.
as for marty, i must say that us cypriots and the irish are very similar in nature.........but he has more "dosh" than me for sure!!
rgds to all
Great new Huss,
I allways enjoyed my 270 when I had it....you will love it...is it not meant to have indicator in the mirrors as a 2003??
Fred
hi fred,not sure about the indicator issue.
but they will be changed eventually!!
Huss,
Looks as if we will have to change your Avitar now! Great find, look forward to seeing more photos. How many G's do you have now??
Spider1V
Very nice Huss!
cheers kaishi and spiderman.
i am on my way to my 3rd G :P
<--------- Like the new comment on Huss's Avitar Max
:lol: :lol: :P

shhhhhh!
lol Tim is working overtime on this one!
mabrooooooook hus55 i'm sure you will put it to good use..only you could find such a rare car on the island!
i thought i would share my excitement with friends here.......... :?
but its becoming a piss take :shock:
i wont mention it anymore and by the way,i like my avator :!:
for the believers and non-believers :? :wink:
this part was changetd too :shock:
not sure what it is......something to do with H :shock: HI-LOW :?:
well it didnt fix the problem :!:
the converter should be fitted today.lets see what news comes of it.
Looks a bit like a windscreen wiper motor, but the rest is looking good, even has the proper rubber mats!
What's below the rear speaker? Is that a reversing or battery gauge?
That's the indicator for parktronic, when the red light comes on, you're about to hit
Congratulations for finding it and for almost buying it. If it is sorted properly that G should last ........very long time. Huss I hope it is all good with this car, get it checked properly from a dealer though.
Hi Huss,
When you say converter is it the cat on the exhaust that is gone. Is it not very soon for it to be gone with so little mileage on the vehicle.
Also what looks like a windscreen motor replaced too. Huss check out this vehicles history with a fine tooth comb just to be sure.
Otherwise I am dead jealous and would give my left liathroid (Irish)for an interior like that although with the steering wheel on the other side for me.
Regards,
Mike
cheer up you old grumpy bugger.
once its fixed it will run fine. anyway, newer cars will always have higher prices for anything but it will be worth it.
Hi Huss arahbeha gdid!! fahlus ktirh ???? if it is the torque converter giving problems ithat is an unusual fault in early life and "normal" use...abuse would be a more likely cause ..and the gismo that has been changed looks awful cruddy for low miles unless it had been deep in the mud.....if MB Northern Cyprus are G' familiar it might be wise to get them to give you a price to get it back up to spec all over and drop that quote in front of the vendor to focus the minds on what it is really worth..hope you get good value for your money..the badge is only part of the value......
i didnt even have a chance to driving it..........!!
I would definitely drive it before handing over money no matter what the cost. It may be a bargain now but they're not cheap to fix.... and as others point out the wear looks high for such a low mileage G....
Don't forget to test all the difs in both hi and lo.
Caveat empor!
this part was changetd too :shock:
not sure what it is......something to do with H :shock: HI-LOW :?:
well it didnt fix the problem :!:
the converter should be fitted today.lets see what news comes of it.
Huss, this is correct, that part is the motor to change from Hi to low. Newer 463 transfer cases do not have a lever but a switch and a motor to do this.
i am beginning to think that something isnt right :?
Hi Huss if little fingers could play with the Hi - Lo switch when the car was at high speed in Hi range.. I guess it could get very expensive very quick..maybe there is a safety lockout to stop you changing the transfer box into Lo range at high speed...it would certainly load up the torque converter or even shear the flexi plate that fits between the engine and the converter...Mort may have some thoughts on this and give you few specific questions to ask the owner as to why it will not drive.......
you guys are tops :!: :!:
if he sorts the problem out i will want warranty too :shock:
