Thanks.
That's a Sprinter van, and they are utter pieces of shit. Trust me, don't EVER buy a Sprinter van. At one point I owned 6 of them for my expedited freight business, and I'm down to my last one and am selling it this week. Just check out any of the Sprinter van forums and read horror story after horror story about how shitty they are built, and how fucking expensive they are to repair, especially now that you can no longer get Chrysler parts for them and can only get parts for the new Sprinters from Mercedes Benz.

In the last month I've had the turbo replaced on my last Sprinter for $2000 and the EGR valve for $1800 (and they go out regularly on Sprinters). And that is a pre 2006 model that doesn't require DEF fuel, those are a fucking headache I would never want to deal with...
