Van Specifications
Description
2015 Mercedes Sprinter LWB 2.1CDi Camper Van 3 Berth We recently took this camper van in PX against a motorhome. It is very clean and tidy and has a great specification with excellent off grid capabilities. The bodywork is superb considering the higher mileage, the conversion has been done to a decent standard BUT we wouldn't consider it to be a Pro Conversion (but better than DIY!). 3 Berth: Sleeps 2 on the fixed bed at rear, 1 more up high in bunk bed. 12v System: 3 x Renogy Lithium leisure batteries, 400w solar panel system, split charger, 12v sockets.
Specification to include: Eberspacher diesel heating system, Thule wind out awning, 240v hook up, great 12v system, 12v lighting, 12v compressor fridge, 3 x ring gas hob, gas oven/grill, kitchen sink, microwave oven, 12v/240v inverter, Air conditioning (habitation area), roof vent, 12v control panel, rear step, tow bar with electrics, rear view camera system, rotating double front seat, 4 x heavy duty General Grabber AT tyres, BBQ gas point, removable table, Fiamma bike rack. Will come with: 12m MOT, engine oil service, habitation check, 3m WarrantyWise Warranty (Upgrade to 1 year for £499 or 2 years for £899). Part exchange welcome: Car/Van/Caravan/Camper Van/Motorhome Remember this is not a Pro conversion.
If we had a 2015 Mercedes Sprinter camper with pro conversion and less mileage we would normally expect to retail it for around £29,995 so this one at just £16,995 with very high specification represents great value for money! This camper van comes with a comprehensive 4 page report from Motor Check to confirm that it has no hidden stories (no finance, not an insurance write off, verified mileage history etc etc) We operate from a purpose built 1.5 acre site in Mareham le Fen, previously occupied by a JCB/New Holland Main Dealer for 20+ years and before them a Talbot/Peugeot Main Dealer for even longer!. Mareham le Fen is a beautiful village that has won the 'Best Kept Village' award 7 times previously.
About the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has long been a benchmark in the large van segment, renowned for its robustness, versatility, and premium feel. For UK businesses and tradespeople, a used Sprinter represents a compelling option, offering significant savings over a new model without compromising on core capabilities. This buying guide delves into what you need to know when considering a pre-owned Sprinter, focusing on UK market specifics, common issues, and running costs to help you make an informed decision.
Used Mercedes Benz Sprinter Price Guide (UK 2025/26)
Prices for used Sprinters vary widely depending on age, mileage, condition, and specification. This table provides estimated price ranges for common models in 2025/26:
| Model Year | Mileage (Approx.) | Estimated Price Range (Excl. VAT) |
|---|---|---|
| 2018-2020 (W907 Generation) | 80,000 - 150,000 miles | £12,000 - £20,000 |
| 2021-2023 (W907 Generation) | 30,000 - 80,000 miles | £20,000 - £35,000 |
| 2014-2017 (W906 Generation) | 100,000 - 200,000 miles | £6,000 - £12,000 |
Key Specifications
- Payload: Typically ranges from 900kg to 3,100kg+ depending on gross vehicle weight (GVW) and body type (L1H1 to L4H3).
- Load Volume: From around 7.8 m³ (L1H1) to 17 m³ (L4H3) for panel vans.
- Dimensions (Panel Van, L3H2 example):
- Length: Approx. 6,967 mm
- Width (incl. mirrors): Approx. 2,426 mm
- Height: Approx. 2,642 mm
- Engine Options (W907 Generation, 2018 onwards):
- 2.1L (OM 651) / 2.0L (OM 654) 4-cylinder diesel: Outputs typically 114 PS (211 CDI/CDI), 150 PS (315 CDI/CDI), 170 PS (317 CDI/CDI).
- 3.0L (OM 642) V6 diesel: Available in rear-wheel drive models, typically found with 190 PS (319 CDI/CDI).
- Euro Standard: Post-2016 models are typically Euro 6 compliant, essential for ULEZ/CAZ. Older W906 models may be Euro 5 or earlier.
What to Look For When Buying Used
- Rust: While Mercedes has improved, check wheel arches, sills, door bottoms, and around panel joins. Often a cosmetic issue, but deep rust can be costly.
- DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) Issues: Common on all modern diesels, especially if used for short, stop-start urban journeys. Look for DPF warning lights, excessive smoke, or a history of DPF regeneration problems. Replacements can be £1,000+.
- Timing Chain/Belt: Most Sprinter engines (OM 651/654) use a timing chain, designed to last the life of the engine. However, listening for rattling on start-up could indicate wear. Check service history for any related repairs. V6 (OM 642) engines also use chains.
- AdBlue System: Post-2016 Euro 6 models use AdBlue. Check for fault codes related to the AdBlue system, as repairs can be expensive and can put the van into limp mode.
- Suspension: Listen for knocks or creaks, particularly over bumps. Sprinters work hard, and bushes, shock absorbers, and leaf springs can wear.
- Electrics: Sprinter's advanced electronics can sometimes be problematic. Check all dashboard warning lights, infotainment functionality, and power window/mirror operation.
Running Costs for Businesses
- Typical Insurance: Insurance groups for Sprinters vary significantly (e.g., typically 30-40+ in the ABI Group Rating scheme for commercial vehicles). Annual premiums can range from £800 to £2,000+ depending on usage, driver history, and geographical location.
- Fuel Economy: Depends heavily on engine, load, and driving style. A 2.0L 315 CDI FWD panel van might achieve 30-35 mpg combined. Heavier or older RWD models with the V6 can drop to 22-28 mpg.
- Servicing: Mercedes offers flexible service intervals based on usage, but typically 25,000 miles or 2 years. Official Mercedes servicing can be more expensive; independent specialists offer competitive rates. Budget £300-£600 for minor services, £600-£1,200+ for major services.
- ULEZ/CAZ Compliance: Crucial for UK city access. Euro 6 compliant models (generally 2016 onwards) are ULEZ/CAZ exempt. Older Euro 5 or earlier models will incur daily charges.
Is the Mercedes Benz Sprinter Right For Your Business?
The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is ideal for businesses requiring a reliable, spacious, and comfortable large van. It suits:
- Delivery & Logistics: High payload and vast load volume make it perfect for parcel and pallet deliveries.
- Tradespeople: Plumbers, electricians, carpenters, especially those needing to carry significant equipment or materials.
- Conversions: A popular choice for campervan and mobile workshop conversions due to its robust chassis and interior space.
Alternatives to consider:
- Ford Transit: Often seen as the Sprinter's closest rival, offering strong residual values and extensive dealer network.
- VW Crafter / MAN TGE: Mechanically identical, offering good build quality and a more car-like driving experience than some rivals.
- Peugeot Boxer / Citroen Relay / Fiat Ducato / Vauxhall Movano: Often good value, with vast load spaces and generally simpler mechanics, but sometimes lack the premium feel of a Sprinter.
