BAKNTIM For Sale. - Birksie - 12 Feb 2013
My DeLorean is up for sale people. It's a very sad time for me. Maybe one day in the future I will own one again.
Problem is, in another 20 years they'll be worth bazillions and I'll not be able to afford one! Sigh.
But needs must I'm afraid, and my family must come first.
I've put a page on the club website with the basics on it.
If anyone wants more info or a chat, give me a call on 0779 233 1885 from 6pm to 8 pm any night.
A quick run down on the specs:
Chasis Number 002 !
Vin#0981 very early car. 481st Production car.
Black leather interior.
Automatic Transmission.
Drivers door edge signed by Claudia Wells.
Full stainless exhaust.
Alpine head unit, speakers, amp and kicker sub.
Complete LED rear clusters.
LED gull wing lights.
6 months MOT and TAX.
Grooves and Gasflap design.
I'll get more pictures and info put up once I have a bit more time.

Sorry to hear that Paul, I know you've come close before. this is a beaut of a car, as you well know, it will make its new owner very proud I'm sure. What a shame. No way you can be talked out of it this time?!
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Birksie - 13 Feb 2013
Not this time unfortunately.
If I could sell a kidney to keep the car... I'd do it.
Many happy memories this car has brought.
All good things......
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Rich Hanlon - 13 Feb 2013
I know it's not a decision you'll have taken lightly Paul, sorry to hear it has to go. Not sure I'd sell a kidney to keep mine, though, it's already had plenty of my knuckles and finger ends over the years!
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Guinney1971 - 15 Feb 2013
sad times Paul, but I know from our chats you've been left with no choice.
Hope she finds a deserving new home, and you're back behind the wheel of a
DMC again soon - remember, if you buy a 'fixer upper', there's enough of us
around this area to chip in and help you out
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Birksie - 15 Feb 2013
Thanks Claire. It's been one hell of a ride.
I'm lost for words really. I never thought this day would come.
She's already sparking quite a few offers and the impending sale draws closer.
Stay tuned.

We're all here for you mate x
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Birksie - 17 Feb 2013
Thank you Claire. It's nice to know I have such good friends. Albeit we don't get to see you all that much these days.
I only hope I can return all the favours I've had from you all over the years.
The warmer days are coming back already, and I know getting rid of the DeLorean is going to be really tough.
I'll miss that cooked leather smell and spending 3 hours at the petrol station answering questions.

PMSL :lol: maybe there will be a benefit to me not using my car much this summer!!
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Birksie - 17 Feb 2013
That sounds a bit anti-social of you Claire. lol I've spent most of today cleaning the DeLorean. I'm gutted that this could be the last time I get to clean it.
Some pictures will be going up soon.
Re: BAKNTIM For Sale. - Guinney1971 - 18 Feb 2013
not so much antisocial Birksie, just realistic about my chances of driving the
De post having baby in July
I'm taxing mine this week, as doing a photoshoot in Derby with it on Friday
