there was one on wheeler dealers a few weeks back, although in standard form, not kitted out like the one in the film.

also, I bought this t-shirt 2 weeks back, which woulda been cool if you was wearing it and had stopped !

Typical DeLorean, sat at the side of the road in a steaming mess :lol:

Must have looked the nuts though :ok:

It was at one of the Goodwood breakfast club meets a few months back so its obviously fairly local to us :)

think they made 9-10 thousand, most were in the states tho, sorry didn't take in the bit about flux capacitor replica etc...... now that must be rare!??

there's over 20 for sale on car and classic, only one has a price listed which is 20k!

There were 6 made for the films, 1 caught on fire, 2 rotted into the ground, the film studio still has 2 and the last one is in a private collection somewhere.... could be that one?!

however.......... there is one for sale on fleabay usa for $450,000!!! I think this one is a bit special tho, took him 8 years to build and for that price it better take me back to the future!
