Mercedes-Benz G300D
This G300D, chassis code W463,
is the oldest road-legal Mercedes G-Class known to exist in China today.
From Official Duty to Iconic Art — China's Oldest G-Class
The oldest road-legal G-Class in China.
Originally part of a fleet purchased in the 1980s for the White Swan Hotel in Guangzhou — a landmark symbol of Hong Kong investors supporting China's opening-up, led by the Fok family.
In 2003, after the White Swan Hotel became state-owned, its Mercedes fleet was released to the public.
This G300D stood out — once owned by renowned photographer Xie Mo, China’s first Hasselblad Master, and acquired by Hans in 2023.
Restored and artistically reworked, its oxidized hood was preserved as a design feature, turning the car into a striking symbol of automotive x art crossover.
