RE: [doc] Fw: [DML] NEC show this weekend past

Well I know I'm biased, but Paul's car is immaculate, no dings, near
perfect!

Nick and Katherine's car is in excellent condition for a regularly used car
of that age, the window thing that was an accident that could have happened
any where and it was soon sorted thanks to many club members "pitching in"
to help.

Flopsy was a "work in progress" designed to show what a cheap American
import can be like, nevertheless, it's a good functioning daily driver.

I'm sure that this person is not typical of our many thousands of happy
visitors or has defective eyesight!

I presume I was the "older fellow"! No comment!

It just goes to show, you can't please them all.

I would hate to sell that person a car......they would be ringing up and
complaining for years!

Your very huffy secretary!

I went to the show in Birmingham this past weekend to see my first
DeLorean in person - while it was a thrill to see 3 of them in one
place, I was a little disappointed in their presentation. One had a
shattered back window, all the cars had dents and dings all over
them, and tatty interiors. Not outstanding examples of the marque by
any stretch of the imagination! Is that all that we've got here? I
spoke with one youngish person selling parts from the "boot" of a
DeLorean there and was led to believe that these were fine examples
of the cars. Is this really true?

Also spoke with an older fellow who mentioned that parts are readily
available and not terribly expensive either. If this is truly the
case, why were these cars in such poor repair? Were there no other
club member cars avaialble for display?

Tried to post this to the doc-uk list, but I'm not a member of their
club, so I can't post there! I also chatted with another fellow there
(Mark? Mike?) who pointed me to the dmcnews site and this list. Such
a wonderful resource!
