Detailed Information
Vehicle Description

2005 Mercedes Vito
3 previous owners (2 prior to myself). Initially a work van then bought as domestic van for family.
2148cc
Diesel 6 gear
Part-service history – I have had a full service each year I have had it.
MOT until Feb 22. Has had welding on the sills, new turbo and new tyres in the last 2 years
Rusting along body work, as expected for age of van
I have had no problems at all with the engine, starts every time and still plenty of miles left given the current mileage.
Central locking button on the key is temperamental and often requires me to manually lock/unlock doors

Conversion Description

‘Bertie’
DVLA motor caravan approved as per V5
Insulated and carpeted across ceiling and walls
Hard-wearing floor and rug fitted on top for easy cleaning
I have not had electrics fitted and choose to use USB charged lights or EHU with 3-pin plugs. I also have a large power bank which I use that works well.
Electric cool box (12v or 3pin) – I find this works well for a weekend without electric or plug into EHU at campsite.
Portable gas stove
IKEA storage for food, kitchen appliances and crockery
Net across the back door provides extra storage
Selling with Thule Bike Rack (2 bikes) and roof box for extra storage
Awning rail fitted for porch awning or drive-away
This van is ideal for a cheap conversion or to be used as a project to re-do
Including nearly new ‘Porta-Potti’ and chemical fluid – Bought due to COVID restrictions at the start of the summer

We have had 4.5 years of amazing travels in Bertie, through the UK and Europe. We will be very sad to see him go however we have outgrown him and would love him to go to someone who can continue to have some adventures.

Beds Description

I have converted this day-van myself cheaply so aware this may not be everyone.
Small bed fitted width (4ft by 5’6ft). We are both under 5’6 so have found the bed to be comfortable. Futon mattress with memory foam topper. Perfect for small couple or as a day bed.
