--------2011 Sprinter sold 2023 -------------------------

Hi guys!! I'm selling my 2011 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 416 CDI LWB HIGH ROOF 2.1L Turbo Diesel Automatic Campervan. Note this vehicle conversion is VASS certified and registered with VicRoads as a Campervan. It is not just a transport vehicle with a bunch of stuff thrown in the back by some dude... You won't get unstuck when you insure this vehicle.

If you haven't driven a modern automatic turbo diesel before, you're in for a treat. The sprinter is an absolute dream to drive. This is not a lumbering motorhome holding everyone up on the freeway. Give it the onion and leave those turkeys behind with the factory cruise control.

I designed this build with myself and the Mrs in mind for long tours. A grey-nomad vehicle. Did you notice the KING SIZE bed?? (King futon included in the sale, it's packed away and absent from some images) Yes the bed is full van width, sleeping length ways luxury. No bed-to-table conversion shenanigans. No sleeping sideways like a pill bug. The bed and table are always ready to go. The automotive seats for dining are absolutely luxurious to sit in, and leave those foam pillows from every other camper for dead. Try and adjust the lumbar support at the dining chair in other vans!!

"The shed" under the bed is 900mm tall and suits my pushbike stored vertically with the front wheel quick-removed. You might notice sliding doors under the bed through to the main cabin. They give huge access from the kitchen to a monster chest-fridge if you decided to install yours under there, or I actually poke my kayaks through those doors for transport. Your quick access hatch for water refills hides in the shed so you don't have clowns throwing dirt in your water from outside the vehicle. At the back door you'll also find your electrical control panel with everything fused, and two spare anderson plug outlets. If you're at a powered site you can also plug straight into the inverter-pass-through cable from here. Super handy.

The build is intended for 100% electric appliances with a 3000W inverter and four x 80AH Deep Cycle AGM batteries for a total of 320AH capacity. There's even space for two more batteries in the battery tray in back. The battery bank charges from two 250W cells installed on the roof, and is supplemented by a VSR so you're always charging when driving; even if it's cloudy. Ditch the gas and plug in your favourite air-fryer or electric kettle. You might notice the empty space next to the kitchen sink is ready to drop in an upright camp fridge.

At the end of a long day hiking rinse off in a hot shower from the 240v/12v 10L water heater, and enjoy a great bush camping experience at those locations that demand grey-water-storage with an ample 45L fresh, and 45L grey water storage tank. (please note the blue 30L tub in photos is just my spare water)

Warm white lighting throughout is dimmable from each respective location, with 12V and USB charging from the shed and the dining table. Reversible fan skylights provide excellent ventilation over the bed and in the shower cubicle.

Ditch the melamine and plastic builds. Come enjoy a real campervan.

regards, - Jared. :)
