2003 Mercedes-Benz Viano

The Viano is a rear-wheel drive minivan available in three lengths, two wheelbases and a choice of four modern petrol and diesel engines coupled to either a six-speed manual or five-speed TouchShift automatic transmission. In some countries a camping derivative is available - known as the Marco Polo - which comes with a galley, wardrobe and individual seats in the rear which transform into a bed at the push of a button.

Six individual seats come as standard, however up to two rear three-seater benches can be purchased, turning the Viano into an eight seat people carrier.

All engines conform to Euro IV emission standards.
