Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Dangermouse - 15 Sep 2014 dmcjohn in Ireland owned that for a few years when it was black. He bought it as a project car in NI but never really got working on it. The current owner has done a great job recommissioning it to the condition it is in presently.

Ah yes remember it now (I knew the deep front lip was familiar). NJI northern Irish reg I think it sold a few years back for somewhere around 8 or 9k didn't it? Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Dangermouse - 15 Sep 2014 That's the one. Don't recall the price. Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris Williams - 15 Sep 2014 I'm sure it will get a reasonable price (if the sale actually goes through, lot of timewasters on Ebay. Buyers that is) there are soooo many people seeking a DeLorean at the moment in the UK Chris Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris Williams - 05 Oct 2014 On Ebay for 30k http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DeLorean-DMC- ... 747wt_1348 However please check carefully something does not seem right about this advert, strongly advise not to hand over any money until you can see the car. Chris Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Dangermouse - 07 Oct 2014 That's a weird on alright. It was for sale on US ebay recently (last month), with a Buy-it-Now of $35k, so it is possible the current seller bought it and is trying to make a few bob on it. But, agreed, even if it was 10k, I wouldn't part with a penny until I saw it in the flesh, in this case Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris Williams - 07 Oct 2014 Yes, the more I think about it, I think it's probably OK, but there are to many discrepancies in the listing, things contradicting each other (IVA!) and the pictures just being taken from the old ebay advert. But I think it's probably a mixture of ebay adverts that contradict each other! Chris Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris Williams - 25 Oct 2014 This car now back for sale as being in the US with a 'buy it now' of 22k http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DeLorean-DMC- ... 33978470fe All very strange :?: Chris Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris P - 25 Oct 2014 Taken at face value it looks a good car, plus shipping costs and taxes that would push it up to fairly strong money. But still it looks OK to me. I just hope its not some sort of scam. Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris Williams - 06 Nov 2014 One in Ireland on Ebay for 30K, apparently had a recent full re-wire! may be worth checking out, shame there are no pictures of the chassis & engine. But looks very nice inside and the description reads well. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1981-DeLorean ... 2c907c566a Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris P - 06 Nov 2014 I don't think Ciaran will mind me mentioning, that the car in the background is one of the earliest built cars in existence . Really special. Its one of the RIA factory cars I mentioned in the other thread. This man knows his classic cars!

Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - Chris P - 06 Nov 2014 Well its not my advert, but I do know of two cars who had serious problems in NI. One was caused by a sticking engine bay switch that melted the plastic light all over the very hot silencer. And another one that burnt out the engine bay, but I don't know the cause. But I do agree that most wining faults result in melted fuses and things failing to work, rather than fires. Personally I ALWAYS use a battery isolator, every single time I get out of the car. Just a precaution. Re: DeLorean's For Sale On Ebay, Updated as They Appear. - 88mph - 06 Nov 2014 Having suffered an electrical engine fire on one of my VW's, not nice, can we see pics of what & where you've mounted isolator? I don't even know where a battery is on a D, I'd guess boot for weight distribution. :oops: No? Yes? Cheers Karl.
