Claire,
Do you mean to say, you only get 3 years worth of average use from one set of door struts (New) ?
I thought my drivers side door was sagging a little, but I put that down to the cold weather. Could mine need replacing already? I had a new set installed 18 Months ago.

I'll be replacing Flopsy's struts in the new year (something else to
spend my house sale money on!!). Her struts are just over three years
old and we got them from PJ Grady at the time but the passenger door
is now sagging quite badly and barely stays up and the driver's door
is sagging too. I guess she's suiting her name again tho :o)
Hmm, well the "throw money at car list" is now up to: new tyres,
refurb wheels, fix oil leak, change oil pump, new fuel tank sender,
get working ac, replace front speakers, sort out running....... :-(
Pah well, its all part of the fun of owning a Delorean......isnt it?
