I had a similar experience with DeLorean One right after I purchased my DeLorean. I needed a water pump, so I decided to give DeLorean One a chance. I, too, spoke with Ed who informed me that simply changing out the water pump was ameteurish and that I needed to replace the entire coolant system, hoses, radiator, etc. I called Stephen Wynn at DMC-Houston and bought a rebuilt water pump kit and have had NO problems with my DMC-12's cooling system since. Like Darren, I commend people who can deal with Mr. Bernstein's attitude and prices, and, because of my experience, I recommend Rob Grady, Stephen Wynn, and Lincoln Nation when asked about parts.
