http://www.delorean-hire.co.uk for sale
The domain above is for sale and so is the website itself, if of interest. A fun and creative away to have your car pay for itself. The only reason I'm selling is that I was approached by an enthusiast of my build (I wasn't even advertising) who made me an offer I couldn't refuse. After owning VIN 5255 since January 2002, I'm very much look forward to the beast that will replace it. I've a hot list of candidates to test drive once vaccinations are done and lock down is over with. Although it is end of an era, I'm very excited about the next chapter.
If you're interested then please email me your suggested offer to chris@delorean-hire.co.uk

Thanks Rich, the parts were all bits I had been meaning to get rid of anyway as my car no longer needed those types but very much looking forward to what is to come.
Best wishes
Chris

Ideas so far include an Audi R8 V8/V10 manual, F Type R, Toyota Supra MKV, TVR Tuscan S, Corvette C7, Lexus LC500 or Bullitt Mustang as potential replacements once lock down is over…

Sad to see you sell the DeLorean after all these years Chris, I remember when you first bought the car and
we were at the NEC, hard to believe that was 19 years ago now.
Looking forward to seeing your new purchase, and hopefully the De will still be seen at Club events and meet ups.

I can't believe you're selling the Delorean after all this time and after that amazing LS3 conversion. Surely none of those cars you're looking at match the appeal of the Delorean, especially one with a LS3. Can't wait to see what you get to replace it.

Hi Chris,
I wasn't advertising it for sale, but an enthusiast reached out to me and made me an offer that I couldn't refuse. It was sold on 1st Dec 20 and the new owner has already been in touch with Chris Williams. I've still some stock DMC parts to sell so will be re-listing these on Thursday via eBay.
