Mercedes sprinter 311cdi with hiab

[County 764]

Hi all, I'm looking at getting a van with a hiab for firewood deliveries and seen a 2001 Mercedes Sprinter 311cdi with 126000 miles on the clock. Going to see it tomorrow

 

Anybody got any experience of them?

 

Cheers

underpowered, look out for a 312/313/316

311 is fine, 2.2 cdi same engine as 313 and you can chip it to the same as a 313 if you wish. 312 is old 5 cylinder engine. these mercs are great motors and go for ever

I ended up buying it, agree its wee bit underpowered but for what I paid cant complain. Been running about in it for a week and no major issues
