My name is Jake I'm from Sudbury Ontario I got the bug . Two weeks ago I didn't know a thing about a Delica.
Hey I'm not quite the guy to be driving anything delicate. Two weeks ago was researching Kijiji for a camper van
For one of my employees saw a picture of the 94 Delica . A 4 x 4 van ? I got to check this out so I watch some of your 4 x 4 videos
It was incredible I was hooked I bought one a 98 space gear 2.8 L turbodiesel 103,000 km . I'm picking it up in Vancouver Sunday morning .
Bought two one-way tickets going to spend two weeks driving around BC then head back to Sudbury.
My wife thinks I'm crazy so if anybody's got any ideas on where I should go have fun on Vancouver Island or on my way back
We're totally open I'm going out to enjoy myself hope to see someone out there

I tried that route with Velocity and even talked with Vlad. I decided to buy locally save some GST and PST.
Picked up mine at 1/3 the cost. Yes it has issues but it 22 years old. It's all fixable. I'll still come out ahead if I sell it. So I'm not to pissed off.
Congrates on the purchase they are cool.
The further east you are the less Delica's you see I'm gathering?
