I hate to do this but you are off on your specs they were designed much earlier I believe 1946/47 They were designed for the farmer originally it's not a two stroke diesel it's 4 stroke. I own one. Also you can check it all out there is Unimog museum and they have a website.
Amazing..I first saw a unimog spreading lime on fields in the 1980s and being a landrover lover I naturally wanted a unimog as well ..great didn't know that about the unimogs axles...would of like a look at the engine has I'm a commercial engine builder...oliver you should have had your ear defenders on...😂
It is a tractor.. UNIversal-MOtor-Gerät", Gerät being the German word for a piece of equipment.. see wikipedia. Lot's of fun but later more useable ones for travel adventures are pretty big and not cheap to own/run. Big truck repair not car repair.
You don't know anything about unimogs. The begin story is incorrect. And you are standing in front of a 411 and not a 404. It was indeed the petrol 404 who was build for army.
Once again something the same age of me! The only Mercedes I would own - modern ones are over engineered plastic crap! Anything 2 stroke does it for me!
I couldn’t remember what that model is but I knew it wasn’t a 404. That one is special in that it has a Westfalia cab. Excellent video! Thanks for posting.

You speak slowly , clearly , c’est un plaisir de perfectionner son anglais technique en t’écoutant !
es un sueño... gracias Patrick... te envidio
Thank you and your friend Patrick for sharing! That looks like a fun little truck, you could see Patrick was proud of it.
Thank you, He's an absolute legend
Absolutely beautiful little Unimog. The 404 & 406 are definitely my favorite trucks of all time and you can still see them on the road in Africa.
They are a fantastic bit of kit
It is not a 404 Unimog it is a 411
@@Niemand411 I know and didn't say it was one. Just that they're my favorite trucks.
Sorry then!
i personally have an 411.117 and love it to bits.
@@Niemand411 Congratulations. It's a lovely light duty truck. :)
Very cool Unimog. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Thank you for watching
My father had a '62 just like that one. He had tons of stories of where it would take him.
Held my breath every time you grabbed the wheel thinking “thumbs out” the whole time.
That thing off road will snap your thumbs right off.
I always drive with my thumbs out even in my 2cv I've always driven old cars are know better
Ha ha ha...love it,
Love the old unimogs, looks like you do to!
Keep them coming!

Mindriven 🙌🏻

The noise wasn't that bad but at the time my microphone setup wasn't great and was pointing at the engine and not me haha
Wonderful! Such a shame about the maintenance costs.
That's classic Mercedes for you

Hugely complicated and great fun but definitely not a tractor as far as the driving experience goes on different tyres it would be far more car like
By the way.. loved your video on this old mog.
Thank you very much
