Lastly, the shipping cost went up because of the currency, there are still tons of available rooms in the shipment, and radiation is only at a certain area. These days it comes with radiation test when exporting from a port.

I came up with the same results as you : August production build.

If you have someone there at the van, have them check the production date stamp on the driver's seatbelt. That is confirmation #2. Not enough for canada customs but for your knowledge and the exporter.

So i live over on the island and have a van coming in and am wondering if i can skip the customs broker and do it myself with only making one trip to Van , if i can't do it in one trip i think i will use a broker .
Any tips hint's or other advice would be greatly appreciated .
Thanks , Bryan

Last post

WWL requires 24 hours to release the a vehicle once customs authorizes release.

So its a 2 day thing..

YOu can Fax your Request for Release approval from home on the island.
Then come over and do customs etc..
but you would have to wait 1 day to pick up..

Hope that helps. \

Well, yes ~ that's a given.

Hello all you Alberta Delica owners. Who are you using for insurance? My other vehicles are insured through Intact, and they say they won't cover physical damage to a Delica due to RH drive, cost and availability of parts, etc.

Last post

This bothers me somewhat, it's like not insuring someone because they're a different skin colour, or left handed. Surely this must fall under Section 15 of the Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms?
