Detailed bodywork condition: Only 2 rust spots (rear right wheel arch and left side panel). Otherwise, nothing. Not even at the “typical Bremer rust spots”—on this example, these are all "clean" and have not required reworking. Only the front right wheel arch has been previously repaired. Normal signs of use are present. Underside is also in good condition.

This 308 D was explicitly sold to us by the original owning municipality as "accident-free."

As-new winter tires (DOT 2022).

High-opening 270-degree rear doors and fog lights, rear axle stabilizer, and reinforced shock absorbers.

Otherwise, a pure base version. No seat belts. No power steering. No ABS. Truly classic 1980s—vehicles back then were built to last. Accordingly, there’s very little that can go wrong here.

OM 601 4-cylinder naturally aspirated diesel engine putting out 79 hp.

5-speed manual transmission.

127 km/h registered top speed.

When opening the sliding door, a large mechanical running board automatically extends.

The vehicle was used by the fire brigade as an equipment carrier (GW) and features some shelving units, which can be easily removed if not needed.

Outfitter: Hermann Schmitz KG, 5901 Wilnsdorf near Siegen.

Registered as “Special vehicle, fire engine.”

Unladen weight: 2,320 kg (including all interior installations).

Gross vehicle weight—original from the factory and unchanged to this day—3,500 kg.

Therefore, this 308 D-KA can be driven immediately with a standard modern passenger car driver’s license.

The warning light system was removed by the fire department before sale and is no longer present.

The vehicle runs very well; the transfer drive on the autobahn was a real pleasure.
