That looks like a seriously good buy to me!!
If I were looking for a car, (or had 20k spare) I would already be on his door step, with a substantial cash deposit in my pocket...

I've sent the link to Simon Bailey, as he was after a grey 5spd as a project car.

Simon was interested, not sure if he had funds ready though.

It was sold with a lot of BTTF kit, wonder if it will end up being a time machine. The more I think about it, the more I want a time machine as well as my stock car. Sadly I'm not that rich

As you probably know Chris N made my car into a BTTF one, indeed the first drivable one in the UK.
But we all know the attention a standard DeLorean gets...with a BTTF replica its EXTREME.....especially on motorways, when folk are cutting you in front and going along-side etc. I found it all a bit too much.
It almost turned into another business...which I didn't want.
Now there must be over a dozen BTTF cars in the UK, with some of those run along business lines....also with much more competition than I faced.
Thats not what the DeLorean is about for me......its just a hobby. But each to his own.
