Good points: comfort, load space, Smooth gearbox and underworked engine.
Bad points: Sprinters rust! chassis and underside is well protected and stay good but the bodywork paint isnt the hardest and stone chips and scratches soon blister and scab, although superficial this can look ugly.

Ahh, the legendary Mercedes build quality again!! This isn't the first time I've heard of this issue. Indeed a friend has just returned a year old Mercedes Sprinter Van and been given a free of charge replacment because of a rust problem

Bought this vehicle 6 months ago. Sailed through it’s first MOT. However, I am NOT happy with the bodywork. I was warned they rust but typical female, I wanted a Merc so that’s what I got! Rust spots all over it

The chassis and underside of a Mercedes Sprinter is pretty well protected from rust but that doesn’t extend to the body. They are very prone to rusting
