About
Do you want to travel around the world and are you looking for your perfect expedition vehicle?
Expectations are high when you invest between 300,000 and 1,000,000 euros in a new world travel vehicle. But even if you buy the newest, most modern or most expensive vehicle on the market, customers are always disappointed. Various travel forums report on the vulnerability of modern technology and quality defects. If you are travelling on your personal dream route – far away from the next big city – you can’t really use a warning light – reading the error log – and a visit to a branded workshop 2,000 KM away :(
That’s why Mercedes trucks from the 80s/90s are so legendary, because they usually don’t have any technology that can break and, combined with the quality of the time, they are considered to be absolutely reliable. These vehicles made the Mercedes-Benz brand famous around the world. If, contrary to expectations, you do have a small problem, you can get help with your vehicle in small local workshops on site and without a laptop.
A decisive and sometimes vital advantage!
Unfortunately you can no longer buy these vehicles new, or can you?
Unfortunately it’s no longer new! But this is probably your last chance to buy one of these legends with only 22,000 km on the clock in TOP condition.
The Mercedes-Benz 917! This is not just any truck from the LN2 series (light class), but a 917 AF with all-wheel drive, differential locks and reduction gear. In addition, this Mercedes 917 4×4 has one of the last OM 366 LA, i.e. the six-cylinder engine legend ever, and in the highest version with 6.0 liters and even Euro 2 (quiet and economical).
The vehicle was completely checked over at a Mercedes-Benz specialist workshop and received a major inspection. In May 2024, the MOT was renewed – without defects. This means that it is not only technically excellent, but the robust single tires from the brand manufacturer HANKOOK are also registered according to regulations.
The 917 4×4 has a newly installed living cabin (empty cabin approx. 450x245x241cm) with a gelcoat coating, a floor reinforced with XPS and a triple locking of the entrance door. With a wall thickness of 60mm, the living box is suitable for all climate zones in the world. Of course, the cabin is mounted on a multi-bearing intermediate frame.
The vehicle is therefore equipped for all your personal challenges. In addition, after purchase, you have the option of designing the interior according to your personal ideas. The 917 is currently rated at 7.5t, but can be increased to 9.5t at any time. The 7.5t offers you as a driver many advantages.
Extremely solid base vehicle of the last development stage with special paintwork, clean history, technically flawless and with all the options for your individual taste. You couldn’t ask for more from a professional expedition vehicle.
