Guest Bill H Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 There's a new engine on the stocks from Mercedes. Some builders of new M/homes, are not ordering it until its in the shops (so to speak). Don't know any more. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bill Ord Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 It's also rumoured that 2006 will see the new VW/Mercedes van with wider track. Could this be the end of rock and roll for VW/Mercedes owners? Bill Ord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Derek Uzzell Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Bill H: Have you got any more details, please? The only new(ish) Sprinter motor I'm aware of is the 2,2 litre 311, a hyped-up version of the 308. But, this is significantly less powerful than the long-standing 313 engine and unlikely to be used to power motorhomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bill H Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I went to order a new Rapido with Merc engine. Apart from a very long wait I was told the builders are not ordering that engine as the new type is due in 2006. (An even longer wait).
