Hi Konrad Firstly may I suggest you have a read of the FAQ on our website - it's linked off Other Pages www.delorean.co.uk/other.html What is a car bought off ebay likely to be like? How long is a piece of string! The best thing is to get a knowledgable third party to look over the car on your behalf, or go look at it for yourself. I would be happy to offer my services in the process of importing a D and selecting the right car.
