Greetings,

A few weeks ago, I purchased a 1996 Delica L400 Spacegear from RSI... Steven answered all of my questions and concerns with buying a not so rare RHD import vehicle that is 20 years old! I had a few hiccups in the first two weeks (squeaky fan belt, and leaky brake calliper), but Steven...

My pickup truck was dying and I needed a new set of wheels. After some thinking and research it became clear that a Delica was the way to go. I did an exhaustive amount of research on several lower mainland dealers. Over the internet, on the phone, in person, even going as far as to stop Delica...

I agree! I think I know which van you bought.. Green L400? I think it is tough for some people to fathom paying top dollar for a refurbished van, but buying a vehicle that is physically 20 years old, means a lot of part replacement will be needed even though Delicas usually have low kms.. I also...

Hey guys,
I'm currently looking into buying my first Delica (and my first vehicle). I think I'm going to go with Amazing Auto Imports, as I live in Vancouver and have heard and read nothing but good things about Mardy and his service out there in Richmond.
I was just wondering, while browsing the...

Hey Dewy,

I also spoke with Mardy several times on the phone, I think this is just his English. You'll notice a few other typos in his posts.

Japan Stock as I understand is his friends shop in Japan who holds them after they find and buy the good ones at auction.

I put a deposit on one, and...

An update on this. It is obvious to me that this AJIMPORTS person is a phony. No retraction nor email to me.

Hi All... Brand new here. Just put down a deposit on my first import: 2000 Delica L400 Spacegear Chamonix. Just stumbled upon your forum and thought I'd check for feedback on the importer. A little startled to find none. Wondering if anyone out there might set my mind at ease?
Thanks.

Hi there, and congrats on going down the Delica path!

When it was time for my Delica I decided that even though there are some really great Delica experts on the Coast, the communication, follow-up, and interaction would be best with a local (to me) Calgary importer. Others in Calgary must have...

One thing I have done is polish the motor before taking it in and then when they look at the motor, I look at them. This usually determines whether I feel comfortable with the mechanic. Otherwise, I think Big Bird makes a reasonable point ( So glad I can do most of my own work. :wink: ).

Mardy,

I want to thank you for providing my family with an amazing vehicle.
The Delica SpaceGear as a vehicle is beyond other models available on the market now, in my opinion. It's not even in the same class; there's nothing like it at the run-of-the-mill car dealerships.
I also don't know how...
