RTW trip with Mitsubishi Delica...March 2012
Hi,
I would like to post info and questions in this thread about our plan to take Mitsubishi Delica around the world.
I have seen few posts about people planning to take Deli for similar trip, but unfortunately they are not any info if someone actually did it.
We will leave Uk in March 2012 and drive through Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Mongolia to South Korea or Japan. From there we are going to ship car to Australia and spend 12 months driving around OZ. Then we will ship car back to Uk.
Next stage is drive from Canada to Argentina, but we do not have money for this yet.

Here is a update about Russian part of our trip.
We will enter Russia near Krasnodar in late march 2012.
Krasnodar - Sochi - Mineralnye Vody - Volgograd - along river Volga to Niznij Tagil - Yekaterinburg - Kazakhstan - Pamir Highway - Kazakhstan - Novosibirsk - Altai Mountains - Krasnoyarsk - Irkutsk - Lake Baikal - Chita - Khabarovsk - Vladivostock.
We will leave Russia in the end of October.
I can speak Russian and we will have local guides/ my friends/ for most of the trip, so we should have a lot of fun and vodka.
