you only need that absolute figure of 3008 x 2000
at 75 dpi that gives you an image size of 40 x 26.6 inches (around 1000mm so way too small for your van side image – you will definitely see pixelation at 2.8m wide)
for the size of image you want for the van you'll need (very roughly!!) an image that is 8400 pixels wide at 75dpi
the interpolation programmes around can try and do this for you, but most are expensive – if it's a one off – you could ask a lab to do it for you, Genuine Fractals is also recommended.
So in answer to your original question my answer would be no – the image you have is not suitable for that purpose. I've seen plenty of vans about with low res images, and it just looks shoddy.
other options:
make your image just part of the display on the van and use text to make up the rest of the space
is your image a detailed photo like a portrait or landscape? if it is then your stuck, but if its more structural, you could convert it to a vector graphic, as that can be scaled up to any size (works best for logos, that kind of thing)
