I believe that the most common waste I have observed among DeLorean owners was allowing their interiors to absorb excess UV by allowing sunlight in through the windshield and window glass. Windshield reflectors do more than just make it more comfortable to enter your car on a hot day! When you plan on preserving your car for the long term, you should use a windshield reflector year round. Some people use a car cover, but it seems a shame to cover up such a beautiful car when it is out in public. Another tip: Always park your car facing away from the sun (usually North, unless you are south of the equator). The DeLorean's sunshade louver does a good job of protecting the interior, take advantage of it. Finally, last year I made custom sunshades to fit inside my *side* windows. I cut two sheets of corrugated cardboard to the shape of the windows and covered them with silver lamé fabric. The beefy DeLorean window frames hold them in place without any adhesive or coupling device, even when the doors are up. When not in use they lay flat on the rear deck. They look good, work well, and are easy to use. With these plus a windshield sunshade I keep my interior cool and totally protected from the sun, yet my DeLorean still looks beautiful in any parking lot. - Mike Substelny
