|
|
Hello all. I have driven and fallen in love with the idea of owning a Delica but have hit a snag in the process. I have 7 children and there fore need a 9 seater. I ahve spoke to Van Quip in Brisbane who have informed me a 9th seat can not be installed. My partner and I have our hearts set on a Delica and am reacting out 4 help. Does anyone know if this is possible???
Many Thanks desperate. |

| Hi, You could maybe sneak a couple of extra seats in a LWB but without taking out the originals and replacing with smaller ones a SWB is already pretty full. But I'd say it would be defo possible in a LWB if you got some of those smaller seats that face inwards similar to the disco style. |

I think you'll hit compliance problems in Oz if you fit an extra two seats yourself.
As said, there is a 9 seater 'minibus ' style around, but getting hold of one  _________________ Simon.

yep, it has a bench seat in the front, the only one i have seen was driven by someone in germany but as i say, this is the only one i have ever seen in the 7 years or so i have been working on/ interested in delicas. |

I saw one on eBay last year, LWB with an extra row of seats, I think it was at least a 9 seater. _________________
