The Accent's stock interior. Impressively well maintained! 

Miss those days when cars came with manual option.

The "van" posted is the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4, which is based on a truck platform.

Designed to handle snowy conditions and rough terrain, the Sprinter 4x4 has been equipped with an all-wheel drive system that can be engaged at the press of a button. The model also has an electronic traction system that automatically brakes spinning wheels so more torque can go to wheels with better traction. If that's not rugged enough, the van can be equipped with off-road tires, Hill-Start Assist and an optional low range.

While Mercedes says the model is "not an off-roader," it features an increased ride height and improved approach, departure, and breakover angles.

The Sprinter Platform (what MB called it) can churn out multiple models such as vans, trucks, ambulance, specialist vehicles and even full size buses, in up to hundreds of variants and combinations.

Wow, that is more than a handful of information! Thank you for sharing.

The bus looks like it may lost its balance anytime!

The <mud> on this green Merc truck seems <painted> on. The spot lights on the lower front is gleaming clean, the sprinter front license plate is clean and the 4 black plastic bits at the side stick out in the middle of the <mud> splatter. The orangey <mud> also does not match the browny mud on the wheels and the ground. 

Caught my eye and had to have a double-take. 😁

the body work seems to be intact. The bumper is really solid for the 144.

Similar to the Fiat 131.

Oh, somehow missed yours last week 😰

Saw it this morning at Upp East Coast going to ECP, so east has at least 2.

Actually felt it's a bit small-ish, like a CHR/Vezel size only leh...

Why BYD never bring in newer model to Singapore. Instead they will bring in the old E6.
