Mercedes Sprinter 313 CDI LWB
Diesel, 6 gears, MOT till 31 October 2024, The body work is in good condition, the panel above the windscreen was re-sprayed in November 2020. There are a few rust specks but the overall condition is good. The van has higher mileage than some – the previous owners converted it to go skiing in the Alps so it has had a number of long journeys.
Cab is in good condition, clean upholstery, CD player.
The van is being sold with 2 sets of tyres-winter and summer.
14V solar panel trickle charger for vehicle battery also included.
Beautiful LWB, high roof self-build conversion for sale. The van is completely off-grid with a 300w solar panel, diesel heater, kitchen, sofa, pull out table, fitted double bed, wardrobe, Thetford portable toilet, fan, skylight and lots of storage space.
The van was converted to be comfortable for long trips, suitable for winter conditions and with ample garage storage for all your home comforts and sporting equipment. An all-season van – we wanted to be able to have both summer and winter breaks and have plenty of space, comfort, warmth, room to get dressed and a ‘proper’ bed, and for us it has ticked all those boxes.
Everything is in good working order and easy to access and use.

Most of this hardware is located under the chest style ‘sofa’ in the van. It makes it easy to access and isolate when and if you need to.

• Cool box- DOMETIC RC1200 (this is ok for keeping items cool while travelling – milk, etc. We have a put a second “proper” small fridge in the garage section for use on longer trips).
The body of the van is accessed by a right-hand side sliding door, with a small but spacious hand-built kitchen fitted along the right side. The kitchen features a sink with cold running water, 25l water tank and 20l wastewater fitted under the sink with a water pump. The stainless-steel sink has a bamboo cover to create extra chopping space, the tap swivels out so can be used for outside of the van (handy if you’re especially sandy or muddy!)
In the middle is a large, deep cupboard for all pots/pans/plates upon which sits a 2 ring gas burning stove. This can be uncoupled from the gas supply and used outside. It sits on Aluminium sheet and surround to avoid heat transference. The kitchen work surface can be lifted up and clipped in place when the stove is in use and put down when it is not.
The last space is reserved for a fridge, with a fold down work surface above it so it can double as a seat. We have had a cool box in the space at the moment which is 3 way (gas/240v/12v). Opposite is a toilet cabinet which has a toilet and small shelving unit and lots of space for hanging jackets etc. It has its own light and full-length mirror on the door.
Next to the toilet is the seating area, a window and shelf. The seating area has a foam cushion and hinged lid for easy access to the main electrical unit. There is also a small space for extra storage. This also becomes the dining area when the table is pulled out from the bed frame.
The back half of the van features a fixed standard double size bed with a real mattress fitted lengthways. This allows you to stretch out and has created room for wardrobe storage along the full length of the bed.
Wardrobe features 2 sliding doors with a small hanging space on one side and ample shelving on the other.
The bed is approximately mid-height of the van interior but still easy to get in and out of. The space under the bed has acted as our garage and allows ample storage. This is accessed by the 2 back doors of the van.
There is a shelving unit that faces into the van and is covered with bungee to prevent items from falling out when driving.
The gas canister is fitted in the garage at the left front side to allow easy access for refilling. This is in a sealed gas box with outlet in the floor of the van. The box, piping ad canister were all fitted by a tradesman, we have the certificate/ sign off check.
On the right-hand side we have a power point for shore hook-up and a 25m extension cable to enable easy hook up and various pitches.
Fixed standard size double bed with mattress
