Baby has arrived!

Post by robinimpey »

Yesterday I went to Vancouver to pick up my new baby which had just been unloaded. A stop at customs, the warehouse and a visit with MardyDelica and then a road trip back to Strathmore with a stop at Radium and Fairmont for a little visiting and hill climbing. Thanks to all you smart folks on the forum I took my air mattress so we could just drive and then stop for a sleep when we felt like it.

My new machine is tight and handles and rides great! Thanks to the Yokohama Trading Company and all of you on the forum that passed along information and advice. If any of you are thinking of importing I would give Chanuri from Yokohama Trading a 10 out of 10 for service and getting me a fantastic vehicle.

Although I was reluctant to go off of the pavement with my new Delica he was just begging for a little bit of hill climbing so I let him out to play for a bit! :-D

Tomorrow my day will be filled with putting in new headlights, adjusting torsion bars, etc. etc. All the important things that I've learned about from the forum. I'm sure it's going to be a fun day! This is the best new toy I've got in a long time!

Congrats Robin!!

And Green1, now you can see how much nicer a white Delica looks without decals :shock:

Mine too will soon have decals as I'm going to use my van for a promotional vehicle for our business. So next week I'll be saying decals are OK! :-D

Bottom line is that a Delica could be pink with orange stripes and it would still be super cool!
