RE: [doc] RE: RHD cars

[Mike Sumner <mikebmw316@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hope so.
 
I'm sorry if I sounded slightly bitter earlier Chris.  The truth is I've been going through some very difficult times recently which I'll tell you about at the N.E.C. rather than on here.
 
Basically Delores was the first DeLorean I ever sat in back in 2000 so I'm just disappointed that it's going more than anything.  That one in particular is special to me as it is the representation of over a decade of wishing to be able to sit in a D.  I've even had a picture of myself standing in front of it at your house on my wall since I saw it for the first time 5 years ago.
 
Never mind though.  I'll have to learn to accept that things change, as I've always been one of these people that tries to hang on to things to keep them as they are.
 
Regards,

Fair enough.

I mean don't get me wrong I understand how people get bored with the
euro boxes that are produced these days and I'm guilty of doing that as
you know, but I always thought that a DeLorean is such a unique car that
an owner wouldn't just change it for another one just for the sake of
it.

I know I've always dreamt of owning one, and I know that when I do
that'll be it unless it gets written off.

There is a car in my Dad's garage that he has owned from new since 1981
and has no plans whatsoever to sell it especially as I've shown an
interest in it due to its rarity (although it's nothing you can get
passionate about).

Anyway, at the end of the day it's your money but I just wanted to bring
up what you said to me because I recall jokingly saying I'd buy it off
you if I had the money to which your reply was firmly "I'm never selling
Delores".  I suppose nothing stays unchanged forever.

Mike,

Well what is "Book" on one of only three made? It was a good
price..about the cost of the foundations for my new house. 

For your information I have owned and enjoyed Delores for 6 years,
longer than I have ever kept any other car. 

I have owned over 60 cars over the last 40 years and only recon to keep
them for about a year before I'm ready for a change.

Backy has also been mine for 5 years, another record. 

DeLorean's still do it for me, but I'm happy to change my Grey Auto RHD
for a Black manual RHD.

I hate to be the one to pick you up on something you said a while ago
Chris but I recall you once telling me that you'd "never sell Delores".
I can't see why you've swapped one rare right-hooker for another to be
honest.

I mean Delores is/was a runner and your new one isn't.  Seems strange to
me unless you intend to sell Delores for way over book.

It would be very unusual to set the reserve lower than the bottom
estimate, and of course you then have buyers premium etc.

I hate to say it, but LHD DeLorean's don't usually sell well at
auctions. I hope for Andy's sake I'm proved wrong.

Mike, and much as I'd like to, I'm not in the market.

I'm reducing my fleet, not increasing it. ( I've taken a deposit on
Delores)

Agreed, absolute bargain at those sort of costs, however i had 
noticed that PJGrady has the same car offered up on their site, i had 
assumed that they had purchased this from Andy and now put it up for 
sale at Coys..  reserve 20K??
