Another reason why the 15-yr rule is stupid

Not sure what year this Mitsubishi is, but it's surely not more than 15 years old. Too bad, cause it's super cool! Check it out.

Looks like a Mitsu Kei van, right?

That's a Mighty Minicab. There's one advertised on Vancouver craigslist right now but there's no pictures.

But here's a 1994 model


A 95 model


And a couple of looks at the 99



Judging by the front end of the one Marameisto posted, it looks like a 1995 or so.

Like our Delicas, these vehicles fill a need, and they wouldn't be coming in if nobody wanted them. The only people who seem dead set against them are the car dealers who are losing sales because their products cannot compete with 15 year old used cars. I gave a passer-by the lowdown on Gumdrop yesterday. He thought she was brand new. Nope...

In my travels yesterday I saw 4 Delicas, 3 Pajeros, a Hi-lux Surf, a kei pickup (unidentified - Honda Acty?), an Every van, a Pao and a Figaro. People are buying these vehicles for a reason. The last two in the list are uniquely stylish; the others are very much utility vehicles, albeit with a style of their own.
