www.kiva.org It's not like there's anything wrong with feeling good, is there?

Probably a 200d or 220d. It might be rusty, especially sitting on dirt in that environment, but definitely worth a look.

That is front wheel drive?

Yep, front wheel drive. Talked to a Frenchman who owned one as a motorhome. Said he had consistent issues with front end parts having to be replaced. Not sure exactly what parts but either suspension or steering parts. I got the impression this was a common problem with those models.

Good luck! But as someone mentioned, look very CAREFULLY for serious rust underneath. Any vehicle parked for years on grass-dirt is going to rust badly down there, and I'm not just talking about fuel-brake lines... Hopefully those Hanomag vans have hefty frame members...

Yeah, I can imagine that with the weight of the engine in front, this vehicle would have regular front-end maintenance issues. Plus when it came out, FWD was probably not a very common thing, and possibly new design for MB??

I dunno Kerry, I just called him at home and he sure wasn't very friendly, maybe it had to do with the time, it being 01:23 a.m.
