This page gathers versions of the Mercedes-Benz L407, part of the so-called Düsseldorf van, which Mercedes-Benz built from 1967 to 1986 at its Düsseldorf plant as a light to medium-duty truck and box van. The versions recorded here – L-407 Kasten, L407 D-KA, L407/2850-64, L407/36 and L407/36 (reinforced) – show the range's typical span between box-van body, double cab and chassis with different wheelbases for bodies.

The register lists here 5 versions with four-cylinders and a displacement of 1,900 to 2,350 cm³, unladen weights from 1,850 to 2,980 kg, gross weights from 3,900 to 4,000 kg, lengths from 4,750 to 5,100 mm and widths from 2,000 to 2,190 mm.
The Düsseldorf van occupied the segment at Mercedes-Benz for over two decades between the light delivery van and the medium-duty truck and served trade businesses, hauliers and municipalities as a box van, flatbed and chassis for special bodies.
On used examples of these classics, rust on the van floor, wheel arches and frame, the condition of the engine and injection pump, the clutch and gearbox, the brakes, the tightness of doors and windows, and the condition of the steering linkage, suspension bushings and wheel bearings matter; parts for this older range run mainly through specialists in historic Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicles.
