Terminator actor Arnold Schwarzenegger's previously owned 1977 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U1300 SE 6.4 is now for sale. The car is available via eBay Motors and is listed at $350,980.
In addition to its 6.4 liter Turbocharged Diesel I6 engine with 320 horsepower, the vehicle also has some distinctive features that make it even more special. Despite the age, this semi-automatic-transmitted car is updated with sophisticated new hardwares.
It has a fashionable roof vent hatch with sophisticated vinyl air-ride seats, rearview camera system, WARN 15,000-pound winch, air suspension, and Tire Inflation System. According to Autoevolution, the second car also comes with high-quality Blaupunkt car audio system and Hella off-road lights at the front.
Another thing that makes this silver car even more exceptional is Schwarzenegger's signature written above the center air vents. Even better, the buyer can brag about this car to more person at once because a bench seat provides space for four additional passengers.
The diesel-fueled car uses Michelin XZL 445/65R22.5 tires with $1,200 cost for one replacement, as reported by Fourwheeler.
According to Autoblog, Schwarzenegger is not the one to put the sale up the internet himself, but the dealer, registered as Texas Direct Auto Sales in Houston claims that the truck is bought directly from the iconic legendary actor. That claim is supported by a full documentation and photos of Schwarzenegger taking delivery when the transaction was made to prove the authenticity.
From the sale's picture and description, the used car still have a great shape. The odometer also shows a mileage of only 1,865 miles (3,001 km), despite being bought a long time ago.
The offer caught a lot of attention is now a hot item on eBay with more than 28 views per hour. Bidding will be closed next Thursday.
Schwarzenegger, also formerly a California governor, is known to be passionate about his cars. His obsession with Hummer H1 is also famous, and apparently also for off-road vehicles just like this Unimog.
The Mercedes-Benz Unimog is often considered as a legend with the first model being launched in 1945, immediately after the end of World War II. The Germany car manufacturer guaranteed the series' toughness, flexibility and heavy-duty.
The year 1977 is also remarkable for the series' history because it was when the 200,000th Unimog was produced. Topped by exceptional qualities and top celebrity ex-owner, this particular car is indeed a hot item still waiting for the best bid to hit the road again or as a boastful collection.
