hi everyone - glad to be here!

am happy (new) owner of 97 spacegear exceed. will remove 2 rear seats to create self-designed 'travel pod' as intend to do some travelling, show 9 yr old the wonders of the north american continent. so far its been quite fun - departure from previous vehicles (saab 92 convertible, merc 230 sl) but in ways more similar than expected. feels most like toyota hilux/ forunner we had in nz. well, less juddery. despite smoother ride my son has named delica RUMBLE (: . never thought i would own a 'van' but am now getting a bit obsessed (owning a classic saab was early training)... love the possibilities. the kids love looking at the sky and reclining seats.

already get loads of positive comments when out and about (also very saab). particularly enjoyed a lovely american telling my visiting ex he is a very lucky man to have a wife like me (: .

would love to organise a 'camping' weekend with other owners/ enthusiasts

Welcome to Delica Canada, Leslie :M

There are mini meets from time to time ~ it's been a couple of months since we've had one so perhaps it's time... smiles. You must keep us posted in the Delica Modification forum how your "travel pod" progresses.

Falco.

Hi Leslie,

Congrats on the new ride. I can assure you that your obsession with the Delica will only get more intense :-) I have also converted my Deli into a camper and would love to do a joint camping trip with some other owners!

Take care.
