I could drive it away next week, and the modular stuff in the boot can be easily modified to have four bikes and three rear seats, two bikes and a single bed plus three rear seats, no bikes and a double bed and three seats, or a double bed and two bikes
Can you? Granted I'm going by squinting at their info-free website, but it looks to me like you can squeeze one bike in by removing one of the bed pods. The bike bods they sell are 1400mm but the bed pods in that van are only 1000mm, and they don't appear to be designed to coexist.
The black one looks like a taxi/minicab and the silver awning bar on it looks silly. Also, solar gain.
Takes away a big chunk of risk, is 30k cheaper, is a (somewhat) more car based platform (Vito chassis with passenger car suspension under the V-Class body), I could drive it away next week, and the modular stuff in the boot can be easily modified to have four bikes and three rear seats, two bikes and a single bed plus three rear seats, no bikes and a double bed and three seats, or a double bed and two bikes, plus in various combination a kitchen and storage area.
Now, how do I convince them to remove the 2.2 litre diesel and fit a 6.3 litre petrol V8?
