Insteresting all this insurance talk, obviously insurance costs is
calculated by risk/repair costs etc...
But statistically speeking I can't imagine that many DeLorean's get
stolen, or vandalised compaired to many other cars out there,
perhaps that's why the difference in insurance costs between a
garaged D and non-garaged D is not that much.
Other than Alistar V's car which was vanadlised (despite being in a
garage) I can't think of many D owners who have had problems.
My MKIV Triumph Spitfire 1.3 is worth about £2,000 but costs me more
to insure than the DeLorean! work that one out!
