I just thought i'd pop a quick post up to keep everything together. She is now safely in the UK and will be ready for the road in just a week or two. My first fuel bill was quite amusing:
Here's a quick picture once I had got home after a nice 600mile trip into early hours..
I will update the thread with some better pictures shortly.
p.s. Having never driven a Delorean before, I now know exactly how you lot feel when driving them. It's one heck of a special feeling, even if the door mirrors are seized up and the heater squeals :lol:
p.s. 2 I'm a paid member but can't seem to create a thread in the correct section so feel free to move it mods!

I'm HOPING to get her passed in the next week and then arrange a meet before the weather gets icey, but if not, early next year maybe!

It really makes the MOT tester scratch his head when he has to do a brake test on the rollers! Still no worries about the handbrake not working.
