Hi Steve,

The answer to that one is; You have an L300 :wink:

L300's are this shape:

L400's are these ones:

The L300 is then split into two main types: Mk2 and Mk2 facelift

Mk2 with the twin square headlamps:

Mk2 facelift with the projector headlamps:

Both Mk2's come with three different roof options which determine the model number: Low roof (P25W) High Roof 'plain' (P35W) or High Roof with Crystal Lite (also P35W)

Just in case you thought I'd missed the Mk1 out, it looks like this:

but you probably don't have many of these in Canada?? (certainly VERY few here in the UK - but I'd LOVE to own one! :twisted: )

On top of all that, you can also get 2WD Delica's as well as 2WD & 4WD vans both in LWB and SWB!! :? :shock:

All L300 4WD Delica's that come from Japan (JDM's) are SWB - they didn't make a LWB people carrier for the Jap market in L300 form....

Hope that helps you out?? :wink:

Regards,

Bruce.

Don't you mean you own a Mitsubishi Delica L300 4WD Starwagon Exceed Mk2a P25W :lol: :lol:

I forgot to mention, the faceilft model is referred to as a Mk2a (square headlamp model is Mk2) and then there is also the 'post 94' Mk2b as well!! :shock:

Image

A lot of people refer to the 'Mk2' as a 'Mk1' and the 'Mk2a' as a 'Mk2' but that is when things get REALLY confusing! :lol:
