Actually, you've given me an idea there.....Merc's still have 'umbrella' handbrakes, how easy would it be to adapt to the DeLorean? Probably more hassle then its worth, but just a thought. It was the only difficult bit of getting in and out of Flopsy when my leg was bandaged up. I found it easier then the Clio because I could just push myself up where the headliner goes when the door was open to get in and out, plus the 'stretched out' driving position was much more comfy.
