EBAY 508D Ex German Military Ambulance

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2408880766&category=6315

I would take this for 3200 bucks. Awesome van, great for summer camping!

Hmm, $17k is a little more than I'd be willing to pay. Interesting vehicle though. There is another post here somewhere for a MB van on ebay at $4k.

Its worth the money with the low mileage.

I wonder how much problem it would be to import into US.

Talking 90hp 4cylinder

Any bets on what kind of 0-60 times? I'd say 38 seconds and 45 seconds and 73 mph in the quarter mile. I'd have way too many tickets with this one

There are tons of these for sale on German ebay for a lot less money. Most of them are motorhomes.

90 hp + ambulance = ???

Wouldn't you think an ambulance should have the ability to at least keep up with traffic?

Maybe in Canada, the ambulance companies bill the government by the hour rather than the distance.

Thumbs up

I agree with Kyle. I really dig the style of this van. I think that if you are into vans, it might as well be space efficient. I hate those Chevy lumina APV vans with the sharply raked windshields and the long noses.

This van sure does look alot nicer (more functional) than the new Sprinter. Hmmm, a sprinter 5 cyl CDI engine in a 508D.
