Sunday Times Review

8.8 seconds sounds about right to me.

not necessarily for the USA/auto version without the Volvo gear....? And mine certainly feels like 20 seconds....!

And this was Jay Leno's original viewpoint:

"The DeLorean is just tainted for me. I’ve never driven one. I don’t ever want to."


which was in response to this article:

Surprisingly positive given his previous article! But do you think that the Sunday Times article was ghost written by someone who just got sent the video? Certainly seems like it...

Nice to see the car featured had a set of Julian's grills

Did anyone else spot the Lybians driving the other way in the video?

That did make me laugh with the VW camper driving the opposite way towards the twin towers.

When Jay Leno started it up the engine was hunting, was that a standard feature of the car??? you mean I've just spent the last 17 years trying to erradicate a feature that was meant to be there???

He also remarked about how now is a good time to get one whilst they are still reasonably priced, I know I slate the car for what it is, but I think it will always stay reasonably priced, especially if you know of the car already.

Well, all in all, Mr Leno made that presentation quite an optimistic one, which is good for promoting the cars we all love and cherish, Mr Quentin Wilson could take a leaf out of his book, could we invite him to Eurotech?? we could do stuff to him like prod him with sticks, and Tony could sing to him

I just finished viewing Jay's review and i got a good feeling about it. Although he started out a bit harsh on the cocaine stuff, he was actually very kind about the car, compared to Top Gear for example. "Great Cruising" is especially true.
