Super Exceed height?

Post by del_man »

I am looking at having my Delica transported by train, it seems they have a 7' height restriction.
Can anyone tell me exact height of the 95 Super Exceed? Stock, no roof racks.
Thanks.

I was looking into that same question the other day (trying to figure out whether an L400 Super Exceed would fit in my carport).

According to Wikipedia, the height of L400 series delica ranges from 1,855–2,070 mm (73.0–81.5 in).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsubishi_Delica

Assuming that the upper end of the range (81.5 in) applies to the Super Exceed (assuming no suspension lift), this suggests that your van should to be 2.5 inches under the 7-foot restriction (perhaps abit more if you deflate your tires abit).

Unfortunately in my own case, my driveway is quite steep and for this reason I would need extra clearance in order to squeeze under the fascia boards of my carport. So, either I'll need to trim the fascia or street park... :-D

This is something I'd like to know as well. I know my Dalek (L400 high roof) has at least a 1" lift on the suspension. I think I'll have to get out a stepladder and a tape measure to know for sure.

I just parked mine in my underground parking. I have a 1996 Super Exceed with 1" lift and a spoiler and it fit through a 7ft door opening by about 1/2 an inch.

High or low roof?

I just measured my garage door height.
Just under 7'.
Keep my fingers crossed she will fit it there.
Will find out in a month or so...

SvR is a Super Exceed high roof - 6'8" just barely depending on where they measure from. 7' no problems (usually).

If you hear scratching, back up very, very slowly!!!
BAHahahahahahaha
