Mitsubishi Delica
Hi all,

Bought one of these after returing from Australia earlier this year. Seems to fulfull all that we wanted from it so far but as we imported it from Japan I am started to feel the slight pain of having a Japnese import and wondered if anyone knew of a good place that will service the car for me. I live in Bishop's Stortford, Herts.

Cheers
Dave

spent 5 months overlanding Canada to Mexico with my Delica. That was with 2 little kids and wife. I found it a very nice little vehicle if you can get the engine to work well with poor quality diesel.
Try delica.ca

the delica is basically a pajero with a van body on it, easy to service by any garage engine bay is a little cramped though.

you can buy all the consumables eg joints and filters from:http://www.milneroffroad.com/default.asp

regards.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
