Looking to get a beach van that can hold alot of surfboards, beach gear and kids. This Dodge Mercedes van intrigues me in the sense that I can fit everything and everyone. Has anyone owned one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MERCEDES-SPRINTER-DODGE-LIMO-LIMOUSINE_W0QQitemZ250201115412QQihZ015QQcategoryZ 124120QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I would not need the tvs and all the extra things.

Thank you for your help.

One of the most successful vans in Europe. Not sure if it comes with a diesel engine there too, those engines never die.

 

Dan I am looking at a diesel one. I am on the hunt for an off lease one for about $25 - 30 g's. I just need more room for our beach stuff because my Titan with camper is not pulling it's weight..lol

that thing's not a van - it's a mini BUS

 

Well if its a diesel engine and its made by Mercedes it will last 1 million miles without any doubt. I have a buddy who has a small Mercedes-Benz Vito ... a bit smaller then this and his odometer shows 800,000+ km's

here are a few other examples for their reliability

Good luck , it's the best van you can buy for the money , I think

 

time for a mini van

happy new year byron.

 

We have them as work vans... They are pretty solid. If you get the white one with no windows... put FREE CANDY on the outside.

I will have one in my garage within 6 months. I am getting one with the windows because the kids will get nervous with no windows. I am going to have custom racks put inside that will hold 8 boards. It is funny because the front grill says Mercedes but the back says Dodge. Thanks for the feedback and will post pics when in garage.

P.S. This is my version of the minivan.

 

Have you considered this Benz?

^ saw that van at some autoshow in Romania a few months ago , the interior is stunning

 

Never seen this...Cool pics. Are these available here?

 

Yeah, last time I checked, they are running anywhere from $120K-$175K.

 

Dammmmmmm....My kids would destroy it..lol..

I've heard they are very reliable

 

I have a friend who has one. He's very happy w/ it. He also mentioned that it handles well for a van. This van has a LOT of room! You can stand straight up in it.
