Dan, Ally Pally is the next show. Mark / Mary..is it still the end of March?.. The spring NEC is still in the air...last years "Sports car" show was hardly a "rip roaring " success for the organisers, although our stand was as busy as ever. Regards your car Dan, I cant help thinking that a nearly completed / running car is worth more. In my book 4+1 = 6 or 7! Still not my business. Forget "parting it out", you will get "diddely squat" and have to wait 2/3 years for that! Just my 4 pence.

If this is the car I looked at in Alton then yes, he got a REALLY good deal on it! Nearly on par with yours Martin! ;o) Damn I wish I had the cash or I'd have had that. Top car.. welcome to the club as a "participating" member! Now you can moan and bitch all you want! Heh. Figured out what those extra switches are for yet? Even the owner couldn't tell me... drove nicely though. As an update, it looks as though I'm getting my Maddie back next week. Having spent the most part of the last week sorting various "things" out personally I'm really really thinking about selling it either as a cheap car (£4k all in) or part it out. Nothing other than panels needed and Chris N can source most of them for well under a £1k! (well he could!) Bit of elbow greece and she's road legal (albeit needing loads of cosmetics - like they all do at some point!). Not a lightly taken decision - but I'm also looking at emigrating with my company to Canada either late this year or early next so I won't finish her anyway! Of course, should a miracle happen I'll keep her (and I'm still working to finish while she's mine - she isn't being dumped). I'm going to update the site to reflect this soon too. So if anyone wants a really cheap fixer upper... of course you could all boycot me and I'll be "forced" to finish her! :oP Oh and any comments about taking on too much and you'll receive a personal slap from me! You have been warned! (I'll even send you a virtual one!) <grin> Best new year wishes all! Dan PS: Anyone want a '01 Y plate Puma while I'm at it? £11,000! (It ain't just the Delorean!) Oh .. and when is the next show? Is it the NEC? I should be there. >From: "Chris Parnham" <chrisparnham@xxxx> >Reply-To: doc-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >To: <doc-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >Subject: RE: [doc] Delorean electrics >Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2002 09:58:13 -0000 > >James, Has been a member of the DOC for many years ( he paid his 2002 subs >today). > > It gives me a real thrill to know that James's long time desire to own a >DeLorean is at last fulfilled. > > It adds to my pleasure that I was instrumental in "pointing" James >towards >this particular car that I first saw for sale "down south", while attending >a car rally on company business.
