Re: Import to the US??

Re: RTT on L300 Delica

I have been told 300kg or approx 650 lbs is safe if the weight is distributed properly along the rain gutters.

RTT on L300 Delica

Re: Rising Sun Imports

Thanks! The website/community here is great. Part of my recent morning routine is knocking back a few cups of coffee and reading old threads of mods or trips and the like. Cheers!

Rising Sun Imports

My wife and I are from Portland Or, and have had been wanting to get a Delica L300 for a few years after making friends with several on a recent trip down the PanAm highway. We began talking with Steven at Rising Sun last November about bring in a nice, low mileage Star Wagon that we could import in...
