For sale is an impressive Mercedes Sprinter self-build camper, designed for adventure and comfort. This versatile motorhome, boasting a striking 4x4 look, is a fine example of a well-thought-out self-conversion. While the seller prefers an outright sale, they are open to swap offers for the right vehicle.
With an upgraded suspension system, this 3.5-ton vehicle has been adjusted to a 4-ton capacity through paperwork, offering the potential buyer flexibility in weight classification. The camper features a 14-foot long box body made of lightweight honeycomb material, providing excellent insulation alongside 20mm Kingspan insulation throughout. The interior remains cozy during winter and cool in summer, aided by seven Seitz windows and strategically placed skylights.
The camper is equipped with a host of modifications for stability, including 5-ton leaf springs, Koni shock absorbers, and rear air suspension. Practical features include stabilizer legs, a tow bar with extension, and a Fiamma F45s awning with a sunshade. For off-grid living, it comes with substantial solar power capabilities, a 55L gas tank, and fresh and waste water tanks.
Inside, comfort meets functionality with seating for up to seven, a convertible dinette, and a permanent bed setup. The kitchen area boasts a Thetford oven, Dometic fridge, and an Ultra store hot water tank. The vehicle also includes a compact toilet and shower room, complete with an electric flush toilet and a powerful diesel heater for warmth.
Despite being a 2006 model with 258k miles, the engine was replaced in 2018 and has been well-maintained. Recent upgrades include a reconditioned steering rack and new brake components. While the camper has some age-related imperfections, it remains a reliable and robust option for those seeking a custom-built mobile home for their travels.
