Finally got our new (to us) sprinter after the old 03 reg was costing to much to maintain after 308000 miles driving

Sure is, different surroundings every day, every day is different driving not stuck at a desk all day type and I don't even mind traffic too much as I'm getting paid to sit therebiggrin

Be prepared for lots and lots of issues. We've got a fleet full of sprinters and they do nothing but break down.
What type of problems have you had?
As another company at our yard have an 08 reg and have done nothing but oil changes and services on time and have had no issues with there's in the 150000 miles they've had it! And we've had the older version sprinters for years and been very relible for the miles we do, only started having issues at the 250000 miles mark.

How much weight does the tail lift add ?

I think it's around 200kg - 250kg,
We use it for delivering and moving photocopiers around and is much better than the old Luton box vans we used to have with their big heavy box and tail lifts.
