VANdal is the ultimate self-contained, mobile, multi-sport base camp. This Sprinter conversion van was 100% customized by Outside Van to create the perfect blend of rugged utility, optimal space utilization, and creature comfort. Whether you’re into paddle boarding, mountain biking, surfing, kiteboarding, hiking, or camping, VANdal comfortably accommodates two adults and a dog. A new owner could alter it to accommodate back seat passengers, but its current layout is ideal for two.

Built to accommodate up to 8 stand up paddle boards, two mountain bikes, and plenty of gear for any outdoor endeavor, it is also beautifully finished with laminate zebra wood, leather seats, easy-to-maintain rubber flooring, a full galley & bath, and much more. The fact that its 170 Mercedes Sprinter chassis fits perfectly into a single parking space (it’s the same size as a full bed pickup truck) means that you can stealthily navigate tight urban environments as well as rugged backwoods roads. Devoid of low-lying farings and other parts that get in the way when you leave the pavement, VANdal won’t bottom out when you take the road less traveled. Whether you’re getting away for a weekend or a few months, to play or to relax, VANdal is the perfect multi-sport mobile base camp.

The beauty of VANdal is in the details ~ Check out the spec list below and be sure to view our flickr albums for more images.
