Olive green over brown leather is an easy combination to appreciate on a classic utility vehicle, particularly an open-top G-Wagen. This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 240GD pairs the upright bodywork with a finish the seller identifies as G Manufaktur Olive Green Metallic, bringing a contemporary Mercedes personalization color to an earlier interpretation of the model.

The specification mixes traditional hardware with modern conveniences. A four-speed manual transmission, four-wheel drive and locking differentials preserve the utility side of the equation, while power steering and air conditioning make concessions to everyday use. The cabin also includes Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, a backup camera and an upgraded sound system with a subwoofer.

A handmade, two-piece canvas roof completes the package. The appeal here is the combination of a simple, purposeful shape with richer materials and a carefully chosen color palette. Offered by Aventura Motors for $69,500, this 240GD presents an inviting take on the classic convertible G-Wagen.
