newbie says hi

["bricki66" <Bricki@xxxx>]

Hi all,

I'd like to say "hi" to everyone of you guys. I'm a new, proud and 
for the first time owner of a DMC-12, VIN #4834.

I'm from germany, but bought the car from the Philadelphia area and 
imported it by myself to germany. Meanwhile the car has its 
registered plate and I've driven some miles so far.

Just yesterday I found a file on my computer from 1994, where I asked 
a DL seller to send me some pictures and further information! Whow! 
10 years ago.

Does anyone of you knows something about my VIN? As far as I know, 
the car was registered last time in 1996 in California, but it was 
sold mid of last year to the guy in Philadelphia where I found it.

Anything helps to complete the "cv" of my car.

By the way: The engine starts by only "showing" it the key, but when 
it's cold, I've to open the throttle a little bit for nearly a 
minute. Otherwise the engine dies in idle mode. When it's a little 
bit warmer after a minute, it's not a problem. Any idea?

with best regards

Peter "Bricki"
