Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

I've just confirmed shipping and delivery on a 1992 Delica Super Exceed, expected arrival in Vancouver at the end of August, taking delivery once the compliance and inspection stuff is done. My second choice was a Subaru Outback. Nice car, but nowhere nearly as cool as a Delica.

The Delica is to replace a 1986 VW Jetta. It's served me well, but I want something I can haul cameras and telescopes and stuff around in a bit more easily. Besides, the Jetta just rolled over 315,000 km, and it's starting to get tired.

Welcome Laura,

you must be pretty stoked. Post pics when you get it.

Hi Laura,

Welcome to the club,

"Only" 315.000 km's ????, think the Delica will beat the Jetta

As I count the days I'm seeing what else I can come up with in preparation for The Big Day.

Some time in the next couple of weeks I'm planning to pay a call on Shogo to take some measurements. The entrance to my apartment parkade uses an RFID tag, and I need to see how far a reach it is from a Delica driver's seat. And, if necessary, whomp up something to extend my reach.

My copy of "Mitsubishi L300 Petrol & Diesel 1987-1992 Owner's Repair Guide" is on its way from an outfit in Australia. I've always done the regular maintenance on my Jetta; I see no reason to change when the Delica arrives. I'll just need to swap my timing light for a dial indicator.

Somebody in the neighbourhood (Burnaby) already has a Delica. It's often parked on Halifax Street, just east of Duthie. Hi!
