I think there is one in New Zealand, I will have another check.


There's a few in New Zealand, only three registered as far I know. There is one in the Southward Car Museum VIN: 5064.

There was another in a private collection in Epsom, housed in an old 1920's shell petrol station which operated since 1995 but closed at some point. Sadly no cars left in the building as I looked through one of the windows they failed to black out.


Are you sure this is VIN#05064? Because according to the VIN Chronology VIN#05062 is in New Zealand in the Southward Car Museum ...

I'm still trying to find a picture of the VIN as I spent a few months over there at the World Cup and still going through 1000's of photos. I did look at the VIN when I opened the driver's door, and made a note of it! but until I find the photo I could be mistaken. Here are more photos of the car itself, its a Manual Transmission.

Reportedly only 839 miles also.

Though whether that is total miles traveled since new, or until angle drive broke, is unclear :)

I was at the Northeast Classic Car Museum in Norwich, NY a couple of weeks ago. Despite being easily the newest car in the museum their DeLorean looks a little rough around the edges, it's sporting a few dents and the door is held open with a jubilee clip on the strut.

This is what they have to say about it:

NEW and IMPROVED !!!!

I fear that there has been a bit of a merry-go-round with D's in British museums lately, so that section may need some help


any help, updates etc are greatly appreciated as always.
