[DML] Buying a DeLorean

[Bobby <bmims1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have owned my DeLorean since 1985.  Steve Wynn and DMC Houston have 
serviced it since 1988.  My "D" is now 23 years old and runs perfectly!  
Steve and the DeLorean Motor Company of Houston are simply the best!

My car was originally serviced by a guy in Dallas named "Pat W....ly" 
who basically used my enthusiasm for the DeLorean for a license to "rip 
me off!"  I have never forgotten him telling me I needed a new tranny 
(auto) and selling me one for $4000 and then taking nearly a year to put 
in in.  When I picked it my car up I drove it out of the service bay and 
to my surprise all of the old transmission was still in the car.  I 
immediatley returned to the service bay and confronted him and he told 
me that all they had to do was rebuild by tranny.  I demanded my parts 
back and "guess what?"  He gave me the same brand new transmission on a 
block that I had purchased and had shipped to him a year earlier!  The 
same one that I had paid him $4000 to order.  The SOB just had my old 
one rebuilt and I guess he intended to sell the new one.  It helps to be 
a lawyer sometimes and to be your own client!  The SOB thought I was 
stupid because I trusted him!  Bad mistake when dealing with "Southern 
White Boys with an education!"  We get very belligerant and know how to 
.. (explitive deleted).. you legally!  Really a bad combination!  Guy 
still regrets knowin' me!

I have since used DeLorean Motor Compamny in Houston and Steve Wynn and 
they are great and true professionals.  If you want a DeLorean then you 
should call Steve and they will find you one.  My suggestion is to pay a 
little more and get the best available.  These are great cars but they 
must have the upgrades and the proper service.  My best advice is to 
call DeLorean in Houston and let them guide you.  They are professionals 
and honest.
