Mercedes Sprinters in USA?

[wayostein]

Hi, do you know if I can find a Mercedes Sprinter 313 CDI Van in the USA?
I'm looking for a passengers 15+1 Van, diesel engine and manual transmission as the principal elements.

I was looking out and I don't find any in the USA.

I live in Peru and want it for tourism, like the one I have on my picture.

I need a used one because I can't pay 40K for a new one.

Thanks for your opinions.

Wayo, look for Dodge or Freightliner Sprinters, MB Sprinters are not officially sold in the USA. The only engine offered is the 158HP CDI, and an auto tranny is common as well. It might be helpful to shop in mainland Europe - many cab companies frequently use MB Sprinters over there. Good luck!
