I'm looking to sell or trade my 2006 Mercedes sprinter van. The TN1 with the 140 wheel base is the perfect size for a daily driver and adventure van. It has very low miles for its inline five 2.7 L turbo Diesel engine. Only 148,000 miles. There are many of these vans out there for sale that have well over 250K and 300K on them. I have put in the work on starting this conversion. I completely cleaned it out when i got it including removing the floor boards. The following list is what I have done. It's pretty much ready to have all the cabinets and bed system installed for a very easy van life or adventure van conversion.
• Entire van has been sound proofed (companies like Outside Van charge like $6000-$8000 to do this).
• Entire van has been insulated using 2" rigid insulation foam.
• All new glow plugs at 108K miles. All work done by Escondido German Auto. ($900+)
• A/C completely rebuilt. All work done by Escondido German Auto ($3000+)
• Custom Motion T-Slider windows installed on driver and passenger sides. Both installed by Johnson Custom Van Solutions ($358 plus install each).
• Fan-Tastic Vent Fan installed in roof ($179 plus install)
• Custom bulkhead shelf upholstered to match custom back door panels and seat covers.
• Topper roof rack ($700)
• Aluminess side mount ladder ($725)
• Custom upgraded suspension all done by Agile Off Road. Fox Racing rear shocks and Bilstein HD front struts. ($1000+)
• Toyo Open Country A/T tires with only 8000 miles on them. ($1500+)
• Trailer hitch receiver installed by Uhaul ($400)
I love this van. It gets over 20mpg and I've gotten as high as 28mpg. It's been with me all over CA and down in Baja. I have been slowly converting it and have a removable bed system that if you're interested you can have it too. Only reason I'm selling it is because i want to get a passenger van and converse it so it's easier for me to carry customers for my surf shop trips and lessons.
Please email with any questions. I'm not in a hurry to sell it so please no lowball offers. These are really hard to find with low miles and no rust and this is the last year they made this motor. All the newer ones have the potential of dealing with fuel issues if you're wanting to make trips down into Mexico.
$25,500
