Also going under the hammer is a red 230 GES but I do not think it is a 230.
Expert opinion please.

The 300 has a turbo bodged onto a non turbo engine.
The 230 has a 2.5 Diesel engine out of either a 190 or 124.
Will be slow as hell. Lot less torque than even a standard 617.
Unlikely to have the right sump for the G.
Poor choice of conversion and number of faults to pick at.
Tread with caution applies to both.

Re: 300GD - 460 for auction
do all the aftermarket turbo kits for the 617 have that sort of set up
home made exhaust manifold (turbo way out yonder)
difficult to make a pucca exhaust must go through the inner wheel arch

Only bodged ones.
Good example of how NOT to do it.
