2012 Mercedes-Benz Viano Vision Diamond Review

    As you already know, the Mercedes-Benz Viano and Sprinter vans have taken on many forms, from passenger buses to camper vans. But perhaps the most decadent variants of these vans has been from companies other than Mercedes, right? I mean, Brabus created the iBusiness 3D van, and Lexani did many conversions of the Sprinter. Surprisingly, Mercedes created a van-limousine-hybrid a couple of years ago, and was much classier than Lexani's wine-cabinet and Nespresso machine. It had a simple Maybach-style two-tone exterior, with a white and grey interior. Somehow, it was better-looking inside and out than any of the Brabus or Lexani conversions. Some other features included a flat-screen TV, a fridge, dual iPads, power reclining seats taken from a Maybach 62, and, most importantly, 8 diamonds scattered across the entire interior. The rear compartment windows had two-mode glass, which is essentially electronically-controlled glass that become tinted at the touch of a button. This is optional on both the SL-Class and SLK-Class, except for the sunroof, not the windows.
