Yippee - finally got my hands on a DeLorean !!!!

Hi guys - at last I have a car - just come back from a whirlwind trip to Dublin to view the D that was for sale on DoneDeal - deposit paid - so that's another one in Wales :)

Nice one Dave, is that the one that had pictures of 2 different cars? What car was it in the end? Was it either of those?

The pics of the car on done deal were library pics - the car was situated in the centre of Dublin in a high security car park - the company are a IT repair/selling business " back from the future " and was used for publicity - their web site - back from the future Eire - you can check out the 3 min video on their website
The guy said he could not be bothered to get car out and take pics so obtained library pics - I was lucky I have a mate living a couple of hours from Dublin so he checked it out last week and took pics of car and vin plate ( 5345 - Oct 81 ) - I am lucky enough to live just 20 mins from the ports so it was easy and cheap for me to get across to view
I will add pics later but for the time being check out the video on their website ( 3rd video down )

llongyfarchiadau boyo! (For Gary Dunster - that's Sheep sweet talk)

Great to speak with you yesterday about this. I'm now looking at the pics on a full size screen and it looks so much better!

Love the exhaust!!!

Now don't forget, when you arrange a trip to PJ Grady let me know huh?

I'm just having another drool over those pics!
It looks a great car, let me know when you get it back to your gaff and I'll return the visit!

have those rear indicators totally faded out ? If they have then I believe a fix is to coat the inside with a yellow lacquer - but I'm also guessing that yellow indicator bulbs would do the trick - I'm envious! Nice one.
