AJ, you lucky swine, living where you do - I've looked at the Houston warehouse/factory online, that's where I planned to get one from if I ever have the cash. Tell 'em to keep one aside for me, willya? I'll even put down a õ deposit, heh heh heh. ;) Damn, if I could get close to one it'd be something. There's a DeLorean down in Essex somewhere, but that's about six hours from here. Maybe i'll e-mail the guy and ask him about how he got a hold of it.

Dude you do know there's one at teh main entrance of Beaulie (however you spell it??) Car Museum?

Foxxy, if you come over the Cumbria and pop into Keswick, you can see the real deal, as they have the DeLorean (or one of them) used in BTTF at the Cars of the Stars museum. Or at least they did last time I went their, it rocks :)

You live in Middlesborugh huh Fox? I'll be over there in August (I think), how random.

Do you think you'd get a discount if you bought two? If I ever strike it lucky (as I'm always saying) we could import two, lol. But as you said, contacting the dude in Essex might be an idea, although you'll probably find he's had it twenty years and got it direct from Ireland!


Aye, he's also prolly John DeLorean's best mate and helped design the car too. Heh heh heh.  ;)

I'm abandoning M'boro tomorrow and retreating to Swansea for three months. I've probably passed your house next to the M6 every time though, Paul. Fancy a quick race? How do you reckon the Fiesta will handle the Old man's Omega CDX? ;)

I'll have to see the BTTF car at Keswick too, assuming it's still there. That'd be quite cool too.

Oh yeah! I saw the DeLorean there, that was a while back now. That's about eight hours from here. Well worth a visit. Alfa, have you been there too? Heck of a journey if you have, man. :)

Fox, it's literally just past Junction 40 - Penrith. About quarter of a mile past the junction theirs a set of houses of the left, pip as you go by :)

Incidently, I'm not too concerned about telling you that, most people can't find Penrith, and even if you can see the house it's five miles round to get to it :)

Yeah foxxy man was that a fantastic Museum... some of the most beautiful cars ever in there. Pity it was all owned by some British snob so there was only one Japanese car, a 1930s Datsun (like a black noddy car).

I guess what should I expect from damn Brits :P
