I test drove a couple last year. I didn't enjoy petrol version because of the CVT, but the diesel (with a proper automatic) was lovely. They both look awesome and the interiors are great.

In the end I couldn't justify NZ$50k for something that gets bashed around and filled with plywood and...

Frack! first stop with my new L400 Low Roof freshly arrived from Japan was LordCo for custom touch up paints with their color matching gun and the BC Government has basically outlawed the manufacturing of custom touch up paints!

I'd stop by LordCo every fall with old L300 to get fresh set and...

Last post

Update: Napa FERNDALE, WA (i.e. just 15km south of Surrey) can match touch up paints to match Mitsubishi paint code specs. Napa Bellingham does not.

I thought this was important to post for both L300 and L400 owners but will move all future conversations over to this thread in the L400 tech forum:

This vehicle has many qualities that I like (4WD, off-road capacity, diesel, relatively good fuel economy, versatility (cargo/people)); however, they are not common where I live, and parts, knowledgeable mechanics, etc. are difficult to come by. It's also old and high km, though quite immaculate in...

Hi,
Im waiting for my delica, she's still in japan at this moment. I know one of the first thing i will have to do upon arrival, it will need new tire, and im looking for something slightly bigger than oem size. Im thinking about 235/75/15.
My question is : how do they feel on oem alloy wheel?...

Last post

94 L400 series 1 LWB.
Rarely off road, but we see our share of snow. Heavy loads often.
Came to me with Grabber AT2 235 75R15 - 90,000 kms ago. I keep them at 40 psi.

Love 'em. Just ordered 2 more because I ruined 1. Not because they wore out; lots of life yet.

Has anyone had any luck with the drive through car washes and an L300?
In the Seattle area I just get laughed at when I ask if I can run it through. Something about the mirror brackets scares them!

Any suggestions or...

BTW, I love how intuitive this Mazda factory stereo is. I had some friends in the Delica, and one of them says, "Hey, your clock is wrong!" So I said, "Why don't you set it?" He starts poking at the buttons, never used this stereo in his life, and in about a minute it's done....

Just wondering who has the oldest and the highest mileage bus or pajero?
Not me at 1992 and a mere 120-something-thousand on the clock.
Anyone think they have a contender in the driveway?

Last post

I'm right in the middle - '91 / 106,000km. But my '03 Yamaha FJR has 100,000km on it, of which I did 76,000 in the past 2 years if that counts for anything :-)

7 years on and I'm still right in the middle with 205,000km

You would have a monopoly on white L300 Delicas around LA i would bet! Check the post from Alec Contesable on the US Delica Facebook page. Get some extra cash if you're down in Southern Cal.

If that doesn't work it's the "MDOC: Mitsubishi Delica Owners Club USA" group on Facebook.
