Mercedes Vito elevating roof

[reynolds29]

Hi Everyone.
I am downsizing from fiat ducato lwb, to a mercedes vito lwb.
I want to have an elevating roof fitted. However, I cant find one for a vito lwb. they all seem to advertise for VW. Can anyone help me find a website who will supply one for a vito. thanks

Check with Mercedes.

Westfalia have Westfalia: Model Caravan Viano Marco Polo

but they call it a Viano and I'm not sure if the Vito is the same model for the English speaking world.

Westfalia maybe helpful and come to the party with the roof or have a troll through their spares and see if you can find out the part number.

vito

There,s a guy on the DIY motorhomes site, singing the praises of his vito. He say,s it is fitted with a Reimo roof. Further to this, Volkswagon T5 Long wheelbase ( similar to Vito) can be bought with a Reimo roof.
Why not take a look at Reimo!
Good luck with your search, Nig.

hope your not down sizing to save money ,i have a mc louis 690g on a ducato 2.8 jtd and i have a vito 2.3 non turbo diesel , the running costs are just the same in fact the vito is dearer to insure,having said that i love driving it

I'm not downsizing for cheaper running costs. I live in norfolk and have a lovely fiat ducato hightop lwb, which I am proud to say, I converted myself.
I've been driving it for 5 years, with no problems. It's just that I can't find parking for it around norfolk. almost every town or coastel car park has height barriers and I can't get on them. Even taking my granchildren down the beach, means I have to book on a campsite for a night, even if I don't really stay the night. an expensive day out.
