2020 Mercedes Sprinter 2500 170 4x4

This is Minke (named for the whale!), a beautiful black 2020 Mercedes Benz 2500 170 4x4 Sprinter Van. The van features factory installed 7” LCD touch screen with wireless Apple/Android CarPlay, a 360 degree camera system, paddle shifters, 7-speed transmission, among many other options, and a V6 diesel engine. I purchased her at the beginning of 2021 to convert to a camper van and I have done most of the heavy lifting so it is very close to being done and is in usable, livable, road-worthy condition already. However, due to health issues, I don’t have the energy to complete it or really use it so I’m looking for a good home for her with someone who will finish the conversion and enjoy the adventure. In addition to all of the various components that I have installed, I also have 99% of the remaining components minus a few finishing touches that you might want to personalize.

She has approximately 1600 miles on the odometer and has had her Mercedes service for this year. She gets driven weekly to keep her in top shape and has been carefully maintained including a professional ceramic wax and regular washing.

FYI, this is our second van build and we have opted to use top quality products and components. The list of what I have and what I’ve installed is lengthy so I’ve detailed much of it in the attached PDF. Also, this format only allows me to include a limited number of photos so feel free to contact me. I’ll be happy to send more photos if you’re seriously interested.
