Retro Car Mechanics magazine featuring a De Lorean service!
#1
Got a cheap bargain on the bay recently, a copy of Car Mechanics from 2008 with a service on a De Lorean, not the usual Mondeo or Golf service itinerary!
Only paid a few quid for it, it breaks the main service items down to 4 pages-handy when a quick reference is needed I thought. Whose is the DMC featured? JRV 680 X isn't familiar to me,answers on a postcard please!
#10556 'Ol Stainless' running surprisingly well,Audi A5 2.0T Quattro smug as usual,Wenault Slaguna stationary for the mo',the R.V.Enterprise clocking the U.K.miles up,new fleet addition-Jessica the Daewoo Matiz,silly but 55mpg....!

JRV... pretty sure that's my old car. I've often wondered where it went (I think it changed hands a few times and disappeared). Interesting stuff.

Red calipers though?

Thought that plate was familiar:

When Tyson owned it we used it for a terrible student film years and years ago. Looking good!

Yep, my old car:

I wonder why the hood changed? I remember someone, years back, saying it had had a bang. No idea to what degree though. Glad it's still going - does it still have that crazy fuse board?

Oh wow. Thanks for the pics. Hana is not far from Waterlooville. I'm just down the A3 Near Hindhead. And yes she still has the crazy airplane fuse board Big Grin which actually works really well.
I've spent a lot of money on her and shes pretty tip top now.

No problem, Matt. I still have her license plate from when I went out to Ohio to buy her. Takes me a back, that does...

It'd be good to see her again - Hindhead is 30 minutes away, so when the weather improves.. if you fancy showing her off, I'd like that. When mine is restored, I'll bring her up too Smile

That would be really good. Any time you are down this way you are more than welcome to see her.
