Exterior Overview
For those passionate about the outdoors, this Mitsubishi Delica is a killer proposition. You save tons of coin over outfitting a truck or sprinter van, you get radical, retro styling, and you benefit from an indestructable turbodiesel 4WD layout to take you almost anywhere! This 2000 Delica Chamonix is an alpine-inspired hauler with loads of personality, tons of recent service work performed, and is being offered with only 127k verified and documented miles on the clock. It looks the part too, with factory optional color-matched headlights, dual fog lamps, front side and rear brush guards, and a neat OEM graphics package to tie everything together. OEM rainguards and 15″ Delta wheels complete the aesthetic, and save for some dings, chips, and loss of gloss, the Sophia White (W08) paintwork is really in above average shape for its age. Legendary on harsh terrain, but just as fun to drive on tarmac, these capable vans are unique, affordable, and reliable. At a fraction of the cost of a built out overlander, why not try out van life in this Japanese Classic!
Interior Overview
The Chamonix Mont Blanc trim was far more than just an exterior package. The interior gained bespoke ivory leather, fleur-de-lis embroidery, and thicker insulation in the roof to help regulate cabin temperatures at night. Although it’s 25 years old, the cowhides are in excellent shape and, despite a few pinholes on the dash, this van appears to be well cared for in a prior life. Dual front SRS airbags were implemented to keep your passengers safe, and the driver can settle in behind a tilt adjustable steering column. Utilizing a versatile eight-seat layout, function takes top priority. To maximize cargo space, the rear bench can stow against the D-pillars, and for optimal road trip versatility, the middle bench can swivel a full 180 degrees to face the rear. Once at the campsite, all rows can be folded flat to deploy a makeshift sleeping surface so you can catch some Z’s. Dual zone climate control is on hand so you can funnel both cold A/C and hot heat rearward as needed. There’s also a central field monitor that acts as a compass and inclinometer to assist while exploring parts unknown. To supply the tunes, upgraded Pioneer touchscreen audio sits adjacent to the HVAC, and boasts Bluetooth functionality. The dash and surrounding blackwood style trim have also resisted any serious wear and tear over the years apart from some cracking on the driver’s armrest. Both power windows work as advertised up front, as do the power mirrors, and power locks which feature factory keyless entry. The carpet is in good shape and the headliner is free of any unwanted rips or stains on the vinyl. It’s what’s on the inside that counts, and this Chamonix delivers tenfold. We’ve even retained the original owner’s manual to go along with your new vehicle purchase.
