New Video Tour!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWKO4rb2QSI
One of the rarest most beautifully done Sprinters on the market!! This is a Van lifers dream home!!
All the most exotic materials have been used from real Eucalyptus wood floors, Koa wood and stone kitchen and stone sink, Hickory and purple heart countertop, to a full custom second floor / deck / literal second story chateau, no expense was spared making this van nice and warm and incredible.
Belu has been across three countries and many many states. The reason I am selling is because I am changing my life and entire career path, and I have decided its time to part ways. I built and maintained this van for the long haul.
I am only the second owner ever. This van has zero accidents, a clean carfax, is extremely well cared for, I mean that.
It has the most extensive maintenance list, ICE cold AC, hot heat. I just drove it from San Diego to LA (~3hrs) and to Temecula (1/22/25) with no issues at all.
One of the biggest highlights that separates this rig from all others, is that Belu has a completely one of a kind 10'x5' custom composite roof deck!!! (second floor yoga anyone?) with a 1.5' rear overhang to possibly hang a swing with the back doors open. Nobody else has this setup!!
300 watts of renogy solar up top with tilted front panel for winter/low sunlight which is working so well currently to power and charge the rig along with an alternator charger.
Belu's maintenance history is extensive and complete and one of the main reasons for a higher price. All the sprinters for sale that I see people quick flipping and have no idea the maintenance and have nowhere near this level of care. I drove her from Colorado last year without a hint of a issue in this van.
I can send you the full list of maintenance but highlights include:
All five BRAND NEW OEM Bosch injectors replaced perfectly polished seats! - This is a MASSIVE job paid for and done, and nobody else has done this with all new injectors on facebook or in LA/SD, and you never have to worry about the engine as long as you just keep oil in it, I expect it to hit half a million miles.

Belu is an absolutely mint Mercedes T1n 2003 Sprinter 2500 - 158" - full length high roof van - She had only one owner before me and has zero rust from Louisiana purchased in 2018 - 165k miles - 4/25/2018 - $16,500
So much other work done!!
On the low end I've got roughly $56,000 into this van over 6 years. On the high end (and much more realistically), I've got $62,000 plus... I am not counting a lot of my own labor/work and many other things.
This van is TURN KEY; fridge, stove, sink, water tank, solar, battery, lights, vent fan, inverter, faucet, are all running!!
**I just did a diff flush/service but noticed a very light leak on the back passenger rear wheel, might need serviced or inspected.
Van comes with a bunch of goodies, I'll throw in an entire spare turbo, a full trans fluid change with the really expensive Mercedes trans fluid ($24 quart X 7-8 quarts = no joke), a gray water tank for the sink for national parks etc that I never installed, extra heater gasket, etc. ***for full or close to asking price only***
Belu has a front tow bar installed and the very rare rear step bumper!
UPDATED Clean California title in my name in hand!! Legit transfer at your bank or cash. No exceptions, and no, I won't take payments. This van is easily worth the asking. There is no comparison of build quality most people use plywood this is all exotic woods, stone, eucalyptus, etc.
I am open to *reasonable* offers, reach out to me, make an offer, talk to me.
Someone is getting a wicked vanlife dream this spring, will it be you?
-Jay
