Really kind of you to offer, unfortunately it's to late to change vehicles Etc at such short notice, however if your up for next year?. Please do pop along though this year and say hello!, As for some of the parts, Dave Howarth who should be on the stand at times has garages full of bits and may be able to help you out with some of the parts you require.

Hi Bob,
I don't know if you have ever been to the DOC stand, but it gets absolutely heaving! We are always needing volunteer owners to talk to the public, Saturday is usually busiest and you'd be most welcome to help out.

A Huge thank you to everyone who helped out/built/took apart or just visited the stand over the weekend. Another very busy show, with I'm told record attendance figures (again) Although not finalised as yet I understand it to have toped 100,000 visitors!
Great weekend for the club where we raise the profile of the car to visitors young and old.
Again a massive thanks from me to everyone, it's the people behind the club that make it the best DeLorean Club in the UK.

I got them to shut the bonnet for a better view of the car.
It is like a DeLorean that has been eating pork pies all its life. its HUGE with an equally huge price tag, which is probably why its still for sale after being built 3 years ago. I was particularly unimpressed by the front door latch pin that was sticking up through the carpet, on the sill, about 6 inches from the bulkhead …ideal for ripping the shoe strap off your "super-models" foot as she exists the car!

Interesting that the construction of the doors was just carbon fibre and the windows plastic/perspex this made them very light. Nice car mind!
