Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

Well,

1st post.

We're making the plunge.

We're planning a year long trip in the winter going south to central America and just bought (about to import) a nice 91 Super Exceed crystal roof.

I imported a beautiful Pajero last year and it has been good to us.

I hate to part with the Paj because it's such a rock solid vehicle, but we can only have one vehicle.

I've done a ton of work on it (lift, bearings, hubs, brakes, driveline, swapped out exceed leather for cloth interior,etc..) so we should be in good shape driving down with a good set of mech's tools and extra parts.

Here's the Delica coming in.

91 Super Exceed 146km's, LSD, and the usual goodies...



Here's the Paj about to be put on the market.

Welcome to the forum!

That's too bad that you can't keep the Paj, it looks really nice.

I bet you were some worried the firsttime you took it underground, it looks like you only have a bout an inch or two of clearance!

Very. I had two peep's checking for clearance.

Problem we have is that according the the 'bylaws' it's supposed to be 6" + from the concrete and mine's just a hair over 1".

So the Paj can't stay in our condo parking stall.

I'll post up a link in the classifieds and craigslist most likely sometime this week when we can grab some better pics of it.

If anyone knows anyone who is interested in a solid, modded Paj, let me know.

It took me over 5 months to find the one I was looking for.

I hope this Delica will be as good to us and the Paj is.

Drop an asking price so we can put the word out for you. Might just sell the Paj. off this forum. More details would be good too. Good luck on your resale and also on your trip...sounds fantastic.

Thanks and will do.

We're pretty excited to get into a Delica since we've have really good experiences with the Paj.

We may even consider a trade for one depending on condition,etc..

Is it okay to post the ad here or just do a link ? I'm new to this board. Go easy on me

I just posted in the 'other' vehicles for sale :

Can't believe we're doing this, but we are selling our Pajero.

We're in a nice condo, underground parking and they just changed the sprinkler system in the parkade over the weekend. Under out strata rules, it has to be 6' or lower and be parked in our assigned stall.

Now my Paj won't fit under there and I can't keep it parked on the street.

Here's the goods:

It has had a lot of work done to it since we brought it over from Japan last year.

-Current 100k mileage (documented mileage and original owner - I'm the 2nd owner).
-2.5" professionally installed body lift ($450)
-Raybestos heavy duty complete brakes upgrade (single to dual piston) in December (calipers, rotors, pads, sliders, brackets) ($1,100)
-Wheel bearings/seals replaced at 98,853km ($180)
-Superwinch manual hubs on the fronts ($160)
-32" Procomp AT's (under 1,200km's) with aluminum rims ($980)
-2 new heavy-duty deep cycle batteries ($280)
-Aftermarket Electric fan ($150)
-Rebuilt 90A alt (bearings/voltage regulator/brushes) ($250)
-Timing done at 72k (belts/waterpump/etc) ($750)
-Nighthawk Blue DOT headlights ($50)
-Turbo Timer ($110)
-K&N air filter upgrade ($85)
-Recent oil/fuel filter change

It has the winter package installed (dual batteries, larger starter and alternator, Greentop glow plugs, LSD, etc..)

Aircared two weeks ago and 100% Gov't inspected/ICBC insured.

It is an exceed model with grey custom cloth upholstery (instead of the cheap leather).

Fully loaded, everything works great (AC blows cold, all electronics are immaculate condition).

Spare set of stock aluminum Pajero rims as well.

LSD rear end

Zero rust.

Zero leaks anywhere. I can attest to it by the clean floor in our parking stall.

We have over $4,000 into it since we brought it over and it's been babied and cared for.

I've done my homework and shopped around.

You will not find another Pajero in this condition with documented work done to it as this one.

It needs nothing and will give the next person it goes to a long life providing it's maintained properly (oil changes, etc.)

Asking $10,500.

As an example you can see the stock brakes compared to the heavy duty Raybesto's brake sets.
