Looking forward to some awesome Delorean owners mini-meets in the South Wales area in the not too distant future. There will be yourself and Tristan in Swansea and myself in Neath (I'm not an owner yet, but will be soon).

Wowzers, I had no idea they packed them in like that but it makes sense. Its good to see the bottom 2 pics as the first one looks like the roof must be awfully close.

There is only one thing in life worse than not owning a DeLorean.
Owning one which is not running...

They have a very expensive specialized calibrated spacing tool...

No problem!

Could this type of visit be classed as “essential travel” I wonder?? :D :D
