I got my 416cdi Sprinter minibus about two years ago. It has a very powerful engine 2.7D which I had a few problems with at the beginning. Also the gear leaver snapped, the flywheel was replaced, the ABS pump and ECU unite cost a fortune to replace, but needed doing. I am happy with the way its running today. They do rust, but that’s just because we live in a very wet country.

I first had a 308 sprinter for 3 years and it covered 277000 thousand miles and went bang, purchased a breakers yard low milage engine and away I went again, I always found it slow and gutless so sold it to a friend and it is still going strong with no problems with a further 100000 miles on the clock. I then purchased a 311cdi 01 reg with 96000 on the clock in super condition and what a van. I am a carpenter and locksmith and carry loads of heavy stuff about but this van goes like a racing car and all sprinters are made to last, just feel the weight of the doors and lift the bonnet and you can see what quality is. It has now covered 157000 with no problems to the engine or gearbox and still drives like new, the only problem is the security on these vans are c**p. I fitted deadlocks to all the doors of my van and it is not sign written but they still put a hole under every handle in seconds to get in and try and rob the contentsof my job. A must for the sprinter is a set of armour plate lock guards to all doors and deadlocks and then the burglars will leave it alone, deadlocks are not enough on their own. If you want a real tough, heavy duty van then this is for you with a super drive and loads of power, even when fully loaded. My next van will be a sprinter.

Great van. The diesel high pressure pump packed in at 80000 miles. Watch out for your licence, it goes like a rocket!
