That's the most RHD's I've ever seen !!!
Most of them aftermarket conversions, but there's vin #510, one of the first 10 cars built and apparently a factory-commissioned RHD !
Cool !

Yeah wicked! Never knew you could even get RHD conversions! Must cost a fortune! Great find!
Oooh. Alex and I are going to Sydney in January, would be cool to meet up with some Aussie D owner’s right over the other side of the world! 8)
Didn't one of our club members recently moved to Australia?

Sounds like the perfect chance to write an article for the DOC Mag Carl! :wink:
Best wishes,
Yes, good call Phil! :wink:
Does anyone know any of the owners over there?
I will try and contact them, and see if they would fancy a mini meet, outside the Sydney Opera House would be cool, and would make for some stunning photo's. 8)
One thing I have noticed though looking at their website, a lot of the cars are off the road at the mo.

LOL. My car's pics is still on there! :lol:
Hi everyone, hope you are all keeping well.
I have been away for a while, down under as it were! :roll:
Alex and I visited Sydney for a few weeks, and have only just recovered! I WILL NEVER UNDERESTIMATE JET LAG AGAIN!!!
Still, we had the holiday of a lifetime, highlights among others included climbing the actual Harbour Bridge, visiting the Opera House and the Blue Mountains as well as seeing Little Britain Live and unexpectandly meeting a long lost cousin who lives in Perth!
However, amazingly we also managed to meet up with fellow DOC member Craig Ashton-Ridley whilst over there! Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any Aussie D's, as Craig's car is still over here at the minute, and the Aussie owners weren't about at the time.
As it turned out, it was only a minor setback as Craig is a really top bloke and it was great for both of us just to be able to exchange stories about all things DMC! All this whilst sitting back chilling with a few beers on Palm Beach (the same beach they film Home & Away on!)
I can now see the appeal of the Aussie lifestyle, as Craig has certainly adapted to it quite nicely! 8)
Anyhoo, back to reality now and raring to continue the chase for the dream, as the passion and enthusiasm is back and stronger than ever!
That said, roll on Eurotech! Woo Hoo!
Best regards
Carl

Glad to hear you had an awesome holiday! It's a shame we couldn't arrange any DeLoreans for the occasion. The most we've had in one place at one time was 3! All of them RHD. That was in western Sydney in 2001. We're hoping to top that this year at our first official meet in Canberra.
Hi Rick,
As you say over there, no worries mate! :wink:
Anyway, I'm sure my wife and I will be back again someday now we've had a taste of the Aussie lifestyle, it's very addictive!
All the best with your planned meet in October mate.
Best Regards
Carl
