We've just bought this, it'll soon be turned into an overland camper and our part time home. I can't wait
For the petrol / diesel heads:
OM642
190bhp 440Nm (which is nice!)
Selectable 4wd. This is the configuration I wanted rather than the constant 4wd.
6 speed manual. The 7 speed auto would have pushed my confidence in MB electronics too far.
Low roof, MWB.
So the plan is.
Elevating roof.
Permanent double bed.
Shower / toilet cubicle.
Solar panels.
Fridge / freezer.
And that's about it, we're not planning on going anywhere cold or wet.
2016. Europe and if we have time Morocco, Western Sahara.
2017. South Africa, Botswana, Namibia......who knows
I'll create another thread for the build.
