Strangely I bought in Belfast , but it had spent more time in England.
I roped in veteran James Russell-Grant to fly over with me and we planned to drive it back.

The seller neglected to mention that it needed a clutch... and the logbook was missing .. but nevertheless we did drive it back all the way to Essex in a day, crossed over via Stanraer.

We got into Scotland JRG decided to try out the radio he turned it on up came the aerial and the radio found Classic FM and the song playing was the BTTF theme tune.

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

Green is a very nice colour choice. If i were to paint a delorean (sacrilege i know :lol: ) I would go with racing green myself or maybe get it wrapped with a grain effect

Looks good with the matching fascia and those BBS style wheels - the only other wheels I've seen on a D that actually might be an improvement!
