Hi all,
Just joined this interesting and useful forum.
I own a 1982 240D, and a few months ago bought a 1973 L406D Mercedes Van (Transporter) that was converted to a camper, and imported into Canada from Holland. These camping vehicles appear to be reasonably common in Europe, but I doubt I'll ever see another one pass me on the road in Canada!
I'm presently trying to get good documentation for it (spare parts list is high on my priority list, to allow me to order necessary parts).
I gather these vehicles were never exported to North-America, except of the O309D small bus variety (same chassis, but with bus body and seats etc.).
Anyone know much about these trucks? Seems built like a tank. Mine is powered by a 2.4L 616 diesel, and is in reasonably good condition. Looking forward to camping in it this Summer with the kids!
