1993 Mitsubishi L300 Delica Chamonix :: Classifieds

Mitsubishi L300 Delica

I recently completed a 2,000 mile trip from the UK to the North of Norway in my 1992 Mitsubishi L300 Delica and it didn’t miss a beat. This vehicle was a recent acquisition but has quickly proven to be a dependable workhorse (despite being unloved for many years prior) and is now my rolling home in the Arctic Circle. It’s a great choice for overlanding as it seamlessly blends the practicality of a van with the capability of a legitimate 4WD (built on a modified Montero chassis). With this in mind, it’s a popular choice on our forum with recent adventure-equipped offerings including a 1991, 1992, and 1994. Today’s $15,999 1993 Mitsubishi Delica is one of the best values to date and showcases the desirable Chamonix trim and the sought-after rear limited slip differential. Further still, it has recently undergone extensive maintenance with many new parts.

From the Seller:

The Chamonix trim is highly desirable and includes a rear limited-slip differential and premium cloth interior that has extra insulation. This is also a high-roof version without the problematic sunroofs. I absolutely adore this vehicle, and I’m only putting it up for sale due to the attention it draws. I’ve driven it all over North Carolina and Tennessee. Unlike one from a dealer, this one is ready to actually use daily.”

The Delica is fitted with a 2.5-liter diesel motor that in stock form produces 84 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque and will return up to 30 mpg on the highway. A reliable and relatively economical engine is matched with excellent all-terrain capability thanks to 4WD, high and low range, armor, an uprated and lifted suspension, and a rear limited slip differential. Inside, these rugged features are balanced with a well-equipped interior courtesy of the Chamonix trim with driver comforts that include: 

  • Power steering, windows, and locks
