I have a Mercedes Vito Traveliner 115CDI, registration year 2007.
In case it matters it has automatic gearbox. The seats are on rails and so each row will slide forwards or backwards and they recline individually.
I've also got the command system with the fancy sat nav, and the chrome side bars.
it's a great car (it's not a VAN!) and I don't want to part with it - but I need 9 seats.
Mercedes technical in Germany have stated that the extra front passenger seat cannot be retrofitted on this model.
I've looked at getting another traveliner but most I see have the seats as a bench, don't recline separately nor slide on rails.
I went to look at a VW Transporter but the inside is too sparse, however most of the traveliner I now see are the same way.
So I've been spoilt and can't bear to lose it. But I need 9 seats.
I've looked at "jamming" a third row in but the rails don't quite go back that far. Although this owner seems to have done it: Mercedes-Benz Vito Traveliner 9 seater 2009
Anyone know how?
Are there any other solutions? Side seats in the boot? 3rd party retrofit kit?
