2016 Mercedes Sprinter 170 4×4 Highroof | Luxury/Off-Road Build

Up for sale is our 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 170” 4×4 that was professionally converted by HQ Customs (a Mercedes Master Upfitter) into an executive-class, luxury/offroad van. It features a modular design enabling a flexible floor plan for whatever the occasion — a night out with friends, family powder chasing, a rolling home-base / lounge for kids sports weekends— or our preferred mode- general mountain west adventure van.

This is the HQ Customs Ambassador Edition. It includes high-end components throughout— BMW 750i heated power seats in front— a VB air suspension system – motorized retractable side step- an Espar D2 diesel heater in the rear and more.

This is an ideal platform for someone looking to get in to a high-end van at an accessible price point looking to build it out for the next chapter.

Condition & Disclosures:

1. ProAir rear A/C system: Currently non-functional due to an undiagnosed electrical issue. I replaced the motherboard in 2024 (located under the driver’s seat)— it has power— but there remains a signal break between the motherboard and the rear mounted controller. I have priced the van with this in mind. I have the contact information for the ProAir support team (now owned by Premier Solutions) if interested.
2. NOTE: This is an undermount rear AC system. If I were keeping the van (I am currently into a new build which is reason for sale), I would be installing a ducted Dometic (or similar) roof mount AC and connect that into the existing electrical system and existing ductwork. This is a sub $3k brand new solution and more fitted for Vanlife vs the original build.

1. Rust: There are a few small spots on the body where minor rusting is evident. A quarter-sized spot at the sliding door track and a small bubble on the rear driver’s panel. Cosmetic only — common on Sprinters of this age.
2. Right rear captains chair— the extendable leg rest requires manual help when extending or retracting it. Probably an easy fix if inclined— motors still function properly.
3. Normal wear consistent with a 9-year-old van — overall excellent condition for mileage and use.
