That is a Mitsubishi Delica.
Which is a Shogun chassis, running gear and engine (2.8 Diesel. 3.0/3.2 Petrol) with a Minivan body.
And they are f*ing brilliant - IF you can afford the petrol  :(

Second only to a Landy Defender off-road. Big and kitted out as a VW camper bus.
Proper off-road day van/camper
I've always wanted one to replace the transit, but economics preclude  ::)

No, they are shit  ;D - Plastic interior falls to pieces, seats are akin to a lounge - perfect for sitting in, abysmal for driving in, especially when coupled with the terrible road handling which can only be described with one word.... Dangerous.

Terrible, terrible machines!

Edited to add - If you want a day van - Get a Bongo!

I did about 1000 miles in one round scotland about 4 or 5 years ago  ???

My recollections don't tally with your comments - very comfy to drive, although a bit heavy on steering.
And don't remember any significant handling problems - but I drove it like a 2.2T 60mph van, not like I was in the MV6 :)
