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

I guess you mean; "departure angle - ZERO"? :o

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?

Drool! :-D

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! :-D
