    Real Lives Reunited - DeLorean workers get to drive their creations after 35 years

    Unrelated to the main Reunion event that is in May, the BBC just did a mini-reunion for their show "Real Lives ReUnited" show featuring Davy Winnington, Joe Murray (employee #65), Alan Hayward, Jo King (employee #69) and Dick Mulholland (thanks ArranJ for the lineup). they talk about working in the factory and then get a chance to drive one of the cars that they built.

    It's currently on BBC iplayer, starting at 13 minutes

    I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

    That was worth the watch. I really enjoyed seeing them drive the cars. Thanks for sharing!

    Great little segment.

    Some interesting footage I've never seen before. Some kind of different window than I've ever seen, must be pre production. I took a screen shot for you all to see.

    I noticed those too, sort of a cross between the prototype sliding windows and the production version

    Perhaps this was the window John was describing in the old Pennebaker clip where he explains that a previous solution wasn't "elegant" enough. He makes a sort of motion with his hand outlining this shape?
