sprinter vs transporter

 Hello everyone,

Right... I have a choice between a 2001 Mercedes Sprinter short wheel base 2.2 and a 2001 Volkswagen Transporter long wheel base 2.4 (neither converted yet)

My question is this... The volume is similar but which is the more usable space as a camper. 

Also I am swaying towards the transporter at the moment purely because it does 40 mpg and the sprinter does 30. I plan to drive down to portugal and exploring alot of europe so will be spending time on the motorway. 

Any advice or experience would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

George.

 I'd go for the VW, for fuel, but if the merc was a MWB I'd go for that, because of the standing room.
