Can you elaborate on this. Did Tempo sell their vans in Europe or are you saying MB used the engines in their vans? I thought MB didn't turbo their vans until they made the Sprinter. I'm interested because one of these days I want to purchase a motorhome in Europe again and if they have Class A's with turbo 616's, it's definitely something I'd look for.
