I know the prices seem to be creeping up but these days fully stock sprinters arent all that common. A lot these days are still mechanically stock but have other things done to it. I know the redbook price says around $2500 but really that doesnt get you a really good condition one.

For example, mine was $1500 when I bought it, then spent about $1200 more getting things fixed (engine, brake pads, battery, shocks, etc) but thats over one year now. Interior need bits and pieces fixed but the condition of the trimings were ok. $300 later fixed the window sills and dash and another $300 for tint all round (a lot of the sprinters would come with tint now). The tires were practically bold and so rather than getting just new tires I went the full kit and got mags + some decent tires which set me back another $1500 (thankgod for 1 year interest free Smile ). Then over the last year I have spend at least another $700 on a security system and another $1000 on a soundsystem. So in all rights this is still a mechanically stock sprinter (with 3 rust spots which will get fixed) but there is no way it would go for $2500, maybe $4-5k if I even wanted to sell.

So you have to admit that some cars are an acception as they only appear 'stock'.
