Moving to the Darkside

After 5 years of MAN TGE ownership I am moving on. I am switching to the darkside and have ordered a Mercedes Sprinter 4x4.

It has been a hard decision as I love the TGE, but it is time for a change and I can’t get what I want on a Crafter/TGE.

I will still be lurking on here.

Great choice although I recently changed from Sprinter to VW. Loved the Sprinter and am falling out of love with the new vehicle not the VW part of it but the build and warranty of the Knaus back end.

Good luck with your new Sprinter.

Thanks Archie, the MAN TGE has been great, I have two. Both were Westfalia Sven Hedins and would have no hesitation in recommending them. However, there are several things I now want from a van, including longitudinal beds. I have gone for a Hymer Grand Canyon S 700, on a 4x4 Sprinter chassis. Let’s see how it goes.

Same reason we had the Sprinter. The knaus has longitudinal beds and is well spec'd. Just need to resolve the very silly grey waste water valve seizure. Been unable to use the MH for it's intended purpose since collecting on 14th Oct. Pretty pissed off at the moment. I hope you enjoy it when it arrives and you take ownership.

Cheers Archie, it wasn’t the van I was thinking of, went to the dealers to see something else and it had just been delivered and wasn’t sold.
