I was chatting to Dave Howarth a few weeks ago, and he let me know that
May 2025 is the 30th Anniversary of him and a few other like minded souls
forming the DeLorean Owners Club UK.

We will be attending a number of events around the country this year to 
commemorate this milestone, and there will be anniversary themed articles 
in DeLorean News and on our social media channels over the course of the year.

Personally, I've only been involved with the Club for 25 years, I'm a mere spring
chicken!  lol

Dear All,

as has been discussed on the WhatsApp group and on the Club Facebook Page,
with the help of Dan Willis we are planning an event in the South of England, 
centred around the Motor Museum at Beaulieu, and Goodwood Circuit, home of
the Festival of Speed.  There are also plans for a scenic drive along the South Coast.

The plan is to arrange this for the end of September.

If you can let us know if you are interested in this event, please let us know so that
Dan can look into suitable hotels and do further planning.

As this is the Club's 30th Anniversary year, it would be nice to get a good turnout at this
and other events the Club is attending this year.

Hi all,

its been posted on the Club's Facebook page and WhatsApp group, but if anyone reading 
this is interested in attending Really Retro Show 2025 at Penkridge Market near Stafford,
I need to know asap.

I've got (I think) 8 DeLorean's coming so far, plus a Renault Twingo Mk1 (me) and a Trabant.

We'll have a gazebo, tables & refreshments, you'll just need to bring your own chairs.

Please drop me a DM if you haven't already contacted me on WhatsApp or Facebook, and I'll 
add you to the list.

I need to give the organisers final numbers by the end of April.

Hi All,

Looking for a lower Crankcase (Sandwich plate). If anyone has one they want to part ways with?

Thanks!

Hi All,

over the last 11 months or so, its got increasingly quiet on this forum, and that is down
to the success of the WhatsApp group for Club Members.

This forum is still monitored, and member/non members can still post on here, but you
may find there is a delay in getting a response as less folks use this now, as WhatsApp is
more instant.

If you are a Club Member, and you are not on the WhatsApp chat, then contact Chris Williams
if you want to be added to it - secretary@deloreans.co.uk

I have this left over from 4 Deloreans I have now restored and sold.  Just make a reasonable offer.

Hi all,

its that time off year again when I start asking for submissions for next years Limited Edition Club Calendar.

Please submit photos (Landscape not Portrait) to me by the first week of October so that I can get the calendar
put together by the printers in time for the NEC Classic Motor Show in early November.

Ideally photo's wont have loads of people in them, but I know sometimes that can't be helped.

So, get photographing, and send your submissions to treasurer@deloreans.co.uk

Hello all,

as you may have seen earlier by my message on the Whatsapp group, we are keen to move with the times and offer the range and variety of events that will continue to appeal to as many members as possible.

We know that there is no 'one size fits all', and that there is no one thing which will be suitable for all people based on either timing, duration, distance, costs, accommodation, what the plans are for the day etc etc.

The general format of the DOC weekends has been to move around the country (a key pledge), and to offer a generally car/ motoring themed day, as well as a general interest attraction day, to help broaden the overall appeal.

I will shortly be sending out a member survey via Survey Monkey which will anonymise all answers and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to have their say.  

Meetings can be anything from local pub trips, regional shows, annual events, road trips - whatever you would like them to be!  Not everything will appeal to everyone but the more we offer, the more likely we are to find something or someone  nearby, which will get people and motor cars together - after all, using, enjoying and nattering about DeLoreans is what we are all about!

The other things to note is that not everything has to be centralised through a formal meeting or an events committee or anything (I'm not a committee member or anything myself...) - any member is welcome to publicise their own events on here or the Whatsapp group, and try to get some cars and owners together.


Please add your thoughts below!

I posted out issue 98 of our club magazine yesterday so should start arriving any day, apologies for the delay but we are short on articles and this really does affect the amount of magazines we can send out. Please feel free to email me anything you have. Tech articles/show articles etc etc
Thanks

Hi folks, we have been invited to a Delorean Day and Supercar Sunday on 4th August at the Great British Car Journey museum.   All are welcome. They will be getting their Delorean out too.
