FS - 2000 Europa G500

The time has come to sell our 2000 Europa G500. We are the second owners of this truck. The first 11.5 years of its life were spent between Aspen Colorado and New Mexico and the last 5 years have been in Sacramento, CA. The vehicle was purchased by us in December of 2012 via Russ at Europa with less than 35k miles. Russ had the truck in his possession and we had it shipped to Sacramento. Below are the vitals:

The truck has been used regularly by our family to go to Tahoe as well as hunting. Lockers and transfer case were regularly engaged.This is not a garage queen but a truck that was used as it was intended and has received the proper maintenance necessary to ensure it was in optimal condition at all times. It has been regularly detailed and the seats conditioned with either Leatherique or Chemical Guys conditioner.

In approximately 2013 the truck was swiped on the right front fender while my father was driving. The inner and outer front fender was replaced by a body shop I specifically chose due to their high quality of work. All parts were sourced directly from MB in Germany as I am friends with my local parts guy at the dealership. Neither the bumper or brush guard were affected. Those were removed after the fact when I sold them to install the G-Wagen preserve bumper. In addition, the lower front portion of one of the fender flares was touched up professionally due to rock chips. Neither of these items is discernible in any way, I just prefer to offer full disclosure.

I have included below a smattering of photos. I am in the process of uploading 75 photos to a Google Drive folder that will be available for view.

Asking price is $45,000
