    The delica's are pretty cool vehicles.. I had a look around one that mates were working on... inside was well kitted out too had leather seats/recliners, dvd screens etc... was shocked.

    But yes thay aint prettiest but not toooo bad?

    Why should it be surprising that the Delica is good off-road? It's just a re-bodied Shogun, so it has ladder chassis, lockable centre and rear diffs, low-range box, etc.
    It's been a crazy year, But through all the damage done,
    I have turned and I have learned, To make next year a better one,

    Singing Oh I am home.

    Because it's a bus, not a jeep!

    Mike... This could be a good fixer-upper? He only wants £750 for it.

    I used to have the 400 series one before I got my vr4 , no they ain't the most atractive looking thing , but they serve a purpose

    Yes they are fully off roadable , I did some in Scotland a few years and it handled itself very well

    I think they're pretty cool as a second vehicle for throwing crap in and sleeping in etc.

    The 400's are the newer shape, of which the Royal Exceed is the top kiddy. Have a read here: http://www.mdocuk.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5106

    Blimey, didn't realise there was a 'Royal Exceed' - Thought it stopped with Super Exceed!!

    And in a fit of Japanese naming daftness, there's a 'Jasper' trim level too!
