As a working van this spec makes sense. Rear camera + sensors all round, and the screen showing the sensor zones is actually useful, not just a gimmick. I do a lot of tight yard stuff and multi-drops, so that’s the sort of option that saves hassle.

The 316 motor with the 6-speed manual feels like the sweet spot. You’ve got power there when you need it, but it still drives like a normal Sprinter, nothing weird. Doors open wide at the back and the load area being factory ply lined with tie-down points is a big plus. Bulkhead too, so the cab stays quieter and you don’t get stuff sliding forward.

It being one owner and still under Merc warranty would make me less nervous buying it, but I won’t pretend it’s cheap. These “rarer” trims always get priced up.

I've been in and out of vans for decades and this new Sprinter feels a lot more modern compared to what I’m used to. Push-button start, safety kits, cameras everywhere, kind of overwhelming. I miss having a proper gear lever, honestly, but it does make shifting smooth. Didn't like that there's no proper port for my old satnav, had to fiddle with wires. Load area is massive but you gotta watch you don’t go over weight, especially with all your gear packed in. Drives easy and quiet, so yeah, solid van. Comfort is top notch. As for price, those extras add up so quick - keep an eye on your spec or you’ll be spending a lot more than you thought. Not perfect, but hard to beat for a workhorse.
