[DML] POLL: Are the factory Right-hand Cars "Original"

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxx>]

Benn - I took the liberty of changing the subject title slightly. In case anyone
else has missed it (I didn't get it...?!), I have set up a poll relating to
David Knudsen's recent claim that there are no "original" right-handers. Details
of the correspondance between Chris Parnham of the DOC UK and Mr Knudsen can be
found by following the "News" link at www.delorean.co.uk.

Although the cars ARE conversions, they were done either at or on behalf of the
DMC factory, as opposed to any which have been privately converted since. The
factory right-handers (with only a couple of exceptions) also sport all the
"Euro" prototype modifications. Are these cars not "original"???

Place yer bets now, ladies and gentlemen at
