I have owned my Cyprus Green 230 Ge for seventeen years, it has transported me and my four children around Great Britian and Spain and Europe in great style.
This G wagon gave ten years of trouble free motoring untill the time it went in for a sevice, on picking it up the oil light was on and the engine sounded like a bag of tins cans, but they would not admit to running it with no oil.
Two engines later the automatic gearbox leaks like a sive and the interior looks its age but would not sell it for the world.

Although our g wagon hasnt moved of our drive for a couple of years i hope to get it going in the summer and maybe joining this club will assist me in obtaining the spare parts it requires.

Hi and welcome here, Bill!
Sounds like your G is a member of the family and wants some TLC.
This is a good place to be for info, advice and sources.
