Delica Canada Meet 7:00 Wednesday June 25th 2014

Post by thelazygreenfox »

Guys and Gals
Let's get together again at Ikea 7:00 Wednesday June 25th for our next Delica meet. Ikea in Coquitlam is still the best place for a meet. There's food till 9:00, good parking and daylight till 10:00. A Wednesday meet still gives you time to pack for the next weekend trip.

Bring your old and new Delicas, your projects and your ideas for this summers camping. New members are welcome, we're a friendly bunch and eager to welcome newbys into our group.

Everyone in the Delica community is welcome. If you know of any other JDM or 4 wheel groups feel free to invite them.

See you on the 25th. Bring your camera.

Ps. Ikea Coquitlam information pickets go home in the early afternoon.

I can make that. It's about time we had a mini meet.

Wednesday the 25th sounds good for me - won't be able to get there quite for 7:00, but should be along shortly after (7:30-8:00ish).

Cheers,
Mark

Hi Everyone,

Sorry to intrude! I'm a journalist with The Globe and Mail. I recently arrived in Vancouver and was amazed at all the Delicas on the road - you don't really see them much in Ontario! Since my job is to write about some of the interesting ways Canada is connected to Asian economies, and since Delicas are being imported from Japan and are being adapted to West Coast ways, I was just wondering if some people here might want to talk to me for a little feature I've started to work on.

I'm basically interested in why you've gravitated toward the Delica over other vehicles - and why you're so enthusiastic about it. It strikes me as sort of a camper van / VW van for a new generation of adventurers, or people who love the outdoors - but maybe that's wrong? I'd love to hear from you about why you love it, what you use it for, etc.

It would be great to talk to whoever started this group, too!

Feel free to email me at imarlow@globeandmail.com if you want to chat! (And just FYI, I'd need to use your name and we'd probably take a photo for the story; but I wouldn't need a photo of everyone who contacts me.)

Warmest, Iain

Basically because they got vibe, baby.
Will you be coming to the mini meet tonight, Iain? If you ask nicely you might just get any one of the members to talk (a little bit) about their wagon.

We'll be meeting at the south-east corner of the carpark at IKEA in Coquitlam. It's right beside the Number One Hwy, take the Brunette Avenue exit (Exit 40); keep left over the highway; right (east) on the Lougheed Hwy for one light, keep right; take right and wrap around the south side of IKEA, between the highway and IKEA; take the left at the south-east corner of the carpark.

See you then!

Falco.

P.S.: There will be a one time free offer on Mitsumaple Decals for those who turn up to the meet. FC.

Hi Falco,

Awesome!

I wish I could make it out tonight, but I have tickets to something downtown - and it starts right at 7pm! I'm sad to miss it! But maybe we could chat separately -- and then perhaps you could give me numbers or emails for another member or two?

Do you think we could chat this afternoon by phone? Or tomorrow? imarlow@globeandmail.com

Cheers!

Iain
