Unimog 1300L

Price:

POA Currency Assistant.

Owner's description:

Unimog Camper 1300L (4x4)

 

This is a unique Unimog Camper 1300L (4x4) in very good condition both mechanically and body work (no rust).

It was built as a mobile welding workshop, and then converted as a camper and is MOT exempt (special vehicle).

Mechanics.

It has had all new brakes (pads and discs), new brake valve, and trailer air valve. It also has a new starter motor. The tyres are Michelin KZL tyres with still a lot of life in them. There is a 5th spare wheel on a rack over the cab. Trailer brakes lines (both red and yellow lines), trailer hitch and hook up.

This Mog has done very little km, in fact the clock was on 31,000km when we got it (January 2008) but we changed the clock, as it stopped working and changed it to a second hand one (by Atkinson Vos) which is why it says 106,000. The current km is more like around 40,000km. This vehicle used to stand with the motor running the hydraulic generator, rather than covering much land.

We have traveled some 10,000 km over Europe in it, and it has been used as one of our on site vehicles (www.spiritsintent.com).

Generator.

There is a 25 kva single phase hydraulic generator (runs off the PTO) in full working order. There is a box allowing you to choose the input from either the generator or the mains hook up. There used to be much more outlets connected but we have never rewired them after changing the box. The generator with the hydraulic pump and motor is worth some money. With loads of outlets, we used it for on site welding and sawing.

 
 

Tail-Lift.

This is a very roboust hydraulic tail lift, and very rare on a Unimog (in fact the only one we know of). It is a 12 volt system which runs off the truck battery or its own separate one.

 
 

Inside.

The box body is insulated with fiberglass insulation, is well insulated and all wooden inside: red oak panelling the walls and ash floor. The bed (pine slats) is fronted with a large ash trunk with an original carving in it. There is a small opening stainless steel window at one end of the bed.

Under the bed is a small door and the 25kva generator with its gauges, as well as ample storage space.

There is a ceiling to floor cubby-hole unit next to the bed and opposite is the kitchen which has a 4-ring LPG hob (the best we've ever seen!) and several original designed cupboards.

There is a wood-burning stove which is more than enough to heat the truck up in cold weather, we opted out of using a diesel heater or gas.

We have left the inside very spacious so there is a lot of room to move about or to build extra seats/beds to accommodate more people and things.

There is a 12V leisure battery inside with two internal lights.

The back of the truck has two barn doors, so the whole wall can be opened to the outside when hot or for loading. There is an additional door is at the side for when the tail lift is up.

Water.

The Unimog has two stainless steel water tanks, one of 230l and one of 70l. The smaller one has a unique heating system, being heated by the exhaust running through a sleeve at the bottom of the tank. This is ideal for having constant hot water on the road and also for unfreezing the tank in the winter. Both tanks have their own taps, so can be run separately or as a unit to heat all the water in both tanks, ideal for expeditions into the northern lands as outside water tanks tend to freeze.

A very good truck for overland expedition, especially where roads are rugged!! We have built and loved this vehicle and had many adventures in her, but the time has come for the next adventure so we are letting her go to pastures new.

Unimog U1000T/Zweiweg.

Price:

£15,000 Currency Assistant.

Owner's description:

Unimog Expedition Camper.

 

Based on a U1000T/Zweiweg, 1983, but has only 900 hours approx. on the engine, probably less than 20,000 miles. Dry stored for years when not in use. Engine is 5.7 straight six turbo diesel, coupled to an eight speed box. Also features hydrostatic drive, handy for tight spaces. Front axle is standard Unimog with cross axle difflock, rear axle is a HD truck axle on air suspension, but no difflock.

Motor home box features four additional seats with belts for driving (seats seven in all), four burner hob, sink, compressor fridge (no gas needed), CD player, table, large house battery, Webasto diesel heater and space to sleep five good friends. (We are a family of five.) The box is built on all sides, roof and floor of an alloy, marine ply, foam (2 inches), marine ply, GRP laminate and so is very well insulated and tough. The box is lined throughout with carpet. Also included is a very heavy duty awning.

The Unimog has never been on an expedition or offroad since I have had it, except across a sticky camp site. Reason for sale ­ realisation that I will never be able to afford to go on an expedition.

Unimog 406 (1964).

Price:

£7,500 Currency Assistant.

Owner's description:

1964 Unimog 406 (fitted with the larger 6 cylinder engine, fitted when new).

Registered as a Tractor (no MOT needed and only driving licence needed).

  • 24 speed gearbox.
  • 3 way tipper.
  • No leaks and all working very well.
  • Full hydraulics for agricultural use and benefits from a PTO.
  • Spot lights, revolving amber warning lights on adjustable stainless bar.
  • Air horns on top of cab run off the on-board compressor (which also powers the brakes) - very loud, however pipe needs reconnecting.

Originally used as a sweeper at Mercedes factory (only 55k to date) - I have original bracket if needed/required for additional cost. Then restored some years back. Bought over from Germany and fully registered by former keeper in early 2000’s. When inspection was undertaken showing it to have no problems.

 

This Mog has not been used very much for the duration of the current ownership (past years) and has gathered some light surface rust but is nothing more despite this she is mechanically superb with no problems and sounds sweet from engine point of view and gearbox with all syncro working perfectly

Model:

Unimog 1700L38 Raised Crew-Cab.

Owner's description:

This 1988, 140.000km Unimog has been lovingly kept and customized to specific personal standards, destined as an overland travelling unit for 4/5 people in any conditions, and with maximum comfort.

It was originally used as a mobile work station for a large industry in Germany which had a fleet of Unimogs, in the rear cell there was everything from welding equipment to compressors and a full set of tools and spare parts. Most of the time it was servicing another vehicle, hence the low mileage of 100.000kms when I purchased it. I also don't know how long it was not used before I bought it but I had to change the head gasket as it had dried due to standing still. The longest trip I have made was to Nord Kapp two years ago and the previous year I travelled down through Libia to the border of Somalia, covering about 6.000km, most of which was sand and pists.

I would leave for Australia tomorrow if I had the opportunity without doing anything on it and this is how I feel about the reliability of the vehicle.

 

This "one of its kind" was not built to be sold but to fulfil the dreams of a family and the pleasure of the driver. In the last 6 years both have been achieved even though life has a way of playing tricks on you as time passes. The Unimog was originally designed to be an excellent work horse and, in my opinion, is the best off road vehicle on the present world market. This example is ready to go wherever you want, now!

Please ask for more information and photographs.

Owner's description:

Unimog 404. Ex French Military.

 

This vehicle is in very good condition for its age and comes with all the canvas covers and rear bench seating. I have owned this vehicle for a couple of years and just used it to drive around the fields, the rest of the time it lives in a barn away from the elements. The chassis is in great condition and there are only a couple of very small rust patches on the bodywork. It is all very solid, with very good tyres and spare. I think it has done about 38,000 kilometers.

The bad points: Although it runs very well it probably needs a good service, the foot brakes don't work very well, but the hand-brake is good. (I think brakes are low on fluid).

The vehicle is based at my holiday house in France (near Dijon) and any interested parties would be very welcome to stay overnight if they came to look at or buy the vehicle. It is not road legal. (I am sure this is not difficult) so the potential purchaser would need to bring some form of low-loader with them. The drive from Calais in a lorry would be about six hours.
