Mercedes-Benz Marco Polo 250 d Sport Long 2017 review
From £53,1808.
Mercedes' Marco Polo delivers a luxury take on the camper van concept, but can it justify its price
What is it?
The Marco Polo - or the Marco Polo 250 d Sport Long to give it its full name - is based on the long-wheelbase version of the commodious Mercedes-Benz V-Class MPV, itself based on the Vito van.
What's it like?
The first clues in answer to that question hit you as you climb aboard, either through the front seats or the sliding side door (which it's worth noting is on the Euro-friendly driver's side, meaning rear passengers will be entering and leaving on the road side in the UK). Compromises are few and far between, albeit with the glaring exception of the USB ports between the front seats, which are located underneath the protruding Comand controller for the sat-nav, radio and other functions. It's worth noting, too, that USB and power plugs are located all around the interior, so only the driver or front seat passenger are likely to be impacted.
