SOLD:- My one owner
2002 Freightliner Sprinter (rebadged as MB) with only 26,600 miles
on the clock.
Possibly the
lowest mileage 2002 Sprinter anywhere in the world!!
I converted this van
into the self titled “Ultimate Windsurfing Van” in 2002, but
unfortunately injuries prevented me from pursuing my passion. You
can see the original conversion project as I did it in 2002, here at
http://www.steynfamily.com/ultimate_windsurfing_van_02.htm
Overall
Everything is in good
working order and it looks and runs like a million dollars. There
are a few tiny minor cosmetic items as expected with a 9 year old
van! Never been in any accidents, no dings and zero curb rash on
wheels. One tiny rust spot in sliding door.
Exterior
Van was built white but was custom painted Silver / Gun Metal by the
dealer for me prior to taking delivery. It comes with imported Euro
version 18” AMG wheels, shod with new 255/55/18” Continental w-rated
tires (good to 169mph), and XL rated (up to 2800lbs per tire). Tires
were installed last year and have less than 1,800 miles on the
tires.
Paint condition is in
excellent condition and the van was only ever washed by myself.
Paint is flaking off the plastic MB wheel center caps. It has the
factory rear step bumper and tow-hitch which is nicely hidden by the
step bumper.
Spare tire has never
been used.
When I purchased it I
immediately rebadged to Mercedes Benz (except for the steering wheel
air bag and shift lever).
Interior
The original cloth seats in excellent condition, as is the faux wood
dash and door panels. No sagging or wear visible on seats or the
fabric. Hand pumped lumbar bladder in driver’s seat works well and
provides great support. Good condition hi quality carpet floor mats
up front.
All walls and ceiling
are insulated. Wall panels are particle board padded with fabric,
and would be simple to update with new fabric. Ceiling is a plastic
dimpled shower stall sheet system that I installed and looks great.
Cargo area has a
custom bed that I made that is easy to remove in 2 sections. Steel
tube frame, plywood top and foam mattress. Floor is fully carpeted.
Sound System and Navigation
Complete with most awesome music system!!! Alpine AM/FM/CD head
unit, plus two amplifiers. One Alpine 4x50W RMS amplifier drives the
Infinity component mid range speakers and tweeters set in the
ceiling panel above driver and passenger, as well as the Infinity
6x9” speakers in the rear panels. A second Alpine 200W RMS amp
drives the 12” Alpine sub woofer housed in a Q-logic enclosure. The
music quality is quite exceptional. Head unit has a wireless remote
control.
Vehicles comes with an
original Magellan 750 Navigation System (same as the Hertz Never
Lost) with separate head unit and display, and the unit functions
perfectly, and is very intuitive.
Mechanical
Since I bought this van I have had zero issues, all recalls have
been done, and it is a pleasure to drive.
This van has the
5-cylinder MB diesel with a flashed ECU that removed the speed
limiter, and added approx. 35 BHP and approx. 60ftlbs TQ. It
accelerates easily to 110+ mph and has averaged 22+ MPG over the
26,000 miles, with zero issues.
Auxiliary Battery, Inverter
and 110V system
An upgraded alternator
charges the standard and auxiliary batteries with a battery isolator
preventing the main battery from discharging. Both batteries were
replaced about two years ago. The auxiliary battery powers the music
system amplifiers and a heavy duty 1,000W inverter and the van is
wired with three 110V outlets in the front and rear of the cargo
section.
First $20,000 takes it.

windsurfer - its your day - you get all my windsurfing equipment as
well at no extra charge - sail them or sell them - your choice
