This sucker looks a bit sluggish... (possibly the only UGLY Delica I've ever seen?!)

I guess you mean; "departure angle - ZERO"?
Now if I had the money I'd LOVE to buy
THIS and stick the 4WD running gear in it.
There are only three things stopping me:
1) My girlfriend would almost certainly leave me because of points 2 & 3!!
2) I have no more room on my drive or my garden or in my garages because of all the cars and car parts I already have!
3) Money!
Despite those three minor factors, I am desperate to buy it and give it some
serious (and
much needed) air! I just feel the need.....but not sure how much I like the idea of being single with a houshold stacked out with vehicles and no money to run them?

Departure angle was indeed the word is was looking for.....

Or buy the roof and mount it on your 4x4

,
Or go for the highroof version :

Drool!
I expect most of you have seen this, but a Deli has to be way near the top of the list in desirable expedition campers... I've wanted to do this kind of trip for a long, long time.

You're most welcome. For those that have not discovered "The Silk Route Motorcaravan Network", I found it fascinating to the point I couldn't stop reading.
Ordinary people, driving fairly ordinary vehicles, achieving extraordinary things. Just think what you could do in your Deli!
The main page is here:

I intend to sulk until I can go play too!
