I am looking at a self build on a merc 508 ,the details of which are as follows ex nato reserve ambulance 1987 1000/5000 kilometers ONLY rust free, lhd.swb. internally like brand new,
cost £4800 inc vat,a bit expensive for its age but obviously priced up to take account of the negligible mileage.
My only major concern is it has the OM314 3.7LTR ENGINE which though completely bombproof is going to be heavy on fuel, slow and noisy,slow Im not in a rush anyway ,noise that can be worked on,fuel 20/24mpg is that realistic? I would welcome any advice on this vehicle from users or past users.
I notice a thread old M.H's v new MH's this thread coincides with it a bit
