yeah, I agree with you there. Hard as it is to believe, you can have too much of a good thing. . . .even a DeLorean
I wish I good go on the Euro trip but my car won't do thjat sort of mileage (it blew up on the way back from Mr. Parham's house at Christmas), and I can't get the time off work anyway.

Hmmm... I will say that your first drive in a DeLorean - regardless of terrain - is amazing. But she ain't the right car for long journeys (you could do a lot worse though!).I'll also say, that like anything, novelty does wear off. I've driven mine to Birmingham, Isle of Wight, and a lot of just general driving (for fun) and I like the twisty stuff best. Being seen is nice.. but I hate sitting in traffic.
You may have heard about the Euro trip... I'm sure that will have it's moments of "PLEASE... no more!" but the gains outweigh the downsides.Dan

it's one of the many downsides to driving a shitty fiesta

Eh?Ok.. the DeLorean is a great car - and it's fun to drive - but any car for 4 hours straight isn't fun. I like DRIVING... not sitting at 70mph in a straight line.Try it.. in a DeLorean...To me, I'd rather have a meet and a car oriented place - the Brighton run - Brooklands - etc... Alton Towers says nothing to me about cars. I WON'T be going there if it's our meet this year, sorry.

it's always been my life time dream to drive a DeLOrean for a long period of time.
some people don't know when they're well off.
I drive a J reg Fiesta day-to-day, and I regularly do 3-4 hours at a time, and that gives you bad back ache, so 4 hours in a D would surely be comparitive bliss!

Ok... to explain myself.I don't like Alton Towers. I don't like the drive there and I don't want to spend 8+ hours driving in my Delorean in one day.There.. my point.
