Interesting indeed. I'll stick with my 81 though I think
i think i will stick with mine too ,not keen on a new delorean it would`nt have the same buzz you get with an old one :wink:
Yep, couldn't agree more guys.
I think it would quickly lose it's unique appeal if it was ever mass produced.

Well maybe it would be second time lucky and all that....
I think that there might be a problem here in terms of panels. From what I understand there are enough around to last the community for a few years yet for replacements, etc.
To build new cars using existing panels would aid the depletion of stock.
I think it's an incorrect assumption that there aren't any 'project cars' available. Aren't there 3000 Deloreans sitting around in north america?
hmm.
Also, something I've always wondered (not worth a new thread). of the 3000 or so that are 'missing', how many do we think are in europe (specifically the UK)?
I'm just thinking about that story Chris P was telling about how he found Dusty in a barn near london with 4 miles on it. How many more like that here? :? :lol:
probably few or none.
Just a shame about the "In Europe a good Delorean can fetch £12,000" statement.
About £5k short I reckon.

Seems like a popular story I have had amongst others ITN news wanting opinions on this issue... not sure what they are ATM
Steve Wright just mentioned it on Radio 2 as well!
Did Steve cover the pricing of the cars?
Like the Idea.
If there having the Chassis remade then maybe it could be engineered to have a modern, more powerful engine installed.
Does this mean that all of the short supply parts are now available ? Drivers torsion bars, interior carpets and left front wings come to mind.
