Looking for LWB Diesel G300 in UK !!!


I am looking to buy a diesel LWB G300 in the UK. I am finding that it's so hard to come by on the used car market. All i see is such a poor collection. It appears the UK is left with the crappiest lot. It seems MB didn't build any of the 270 cdi's for the UK market. Is that what's created the shortage? All i see are short wheel base Gs on sale with lengthy milage. I still don't see the appeal for a SWB 4x4 but that's my opinion. I also noticed that a lot of the G500 and G55s are LHDs imported from Europe. UK is G mediocrity at it's highest!!! Any ideas or tips from the Brits will be appreciated.

You might know this, but a bunch of people in the UK imports trucks from Japan, maybe you could look into this...

diesels are few and far between over there. probably better to find something in Germany.

RHD cars might be rare in Germany

RHD late model (post 1995) G wagons are rare in Japan. Early '90s gas G's may be found on occasion.
