Ohhhh nice, for that money they need to get it up on a lift though.
I see the clock has been removed, wonder what switch is for?


RE: 1981 - Grey Manual - £32,500 - TristanC - 20 Jan 2016

It's up for sale for £28k on the Eurotec forum.
I think this car is known to the club too.

A rather nice one all round by all accounty

And yes, I wondered what that switch was too.

What's your budget again Tristan? Definitely worth a look that one.

Still a dream for me at the moment dude. Things went a bit Pete Tong for me again towards the end of 2015.

But once I'm sorted, this will be my sort of budget. £25k to £30k anyway.

2016 will still be my year. I need something to aim for and a DeLorean is it Smile

Is that JRV or JRW?

I recognise it from somewhere...

Aha!

I think as a later VIN it would not have a clock fitted, it would be in the radio. May be the switch is for a fan over-ride? common thing (and sensible) to have.

that was originally owned by Dan Willis, then a guy called Martin (I think) owned it, before it was bought by
Tyson Clark. I believe Tyson and his wife moved to Australia and the car was sold to the current owner.

February 2003 when we had a meet up at Steve Strelczak's house (ex PSO69W) in Bath

Yep, that was mine. A few notes I guess I can make - I have no idea on her history the past 8/10 years but the car did have the clock (that switch is new). The hood was flat as well (louvred), so that's been changed too (perhaps knocked, or perhaps preference). The door straps were regular loose ones, so the door panels have been changed, as have the head liners.

Not exactly unexpected given the age of these cars. Looks like a lot of love and money has been put in to that car.

She was a nice car then, and certainly one now. I'd have it back but I wouldn't pay £32k (I guess that's the going rate now!)
