Ha! yeah. I meant to highlight that one! caught the others though lol!

There's not much right with the advert. It looks as though the car is 135 years old too! "1881" :lol:

Hi all. DeLorian, vin 5866 was purchased from Duxford Classic car Auction for £29,120.00 on the 20th of April my myself, and as you know is currently on our companies website for £39,995 although this is not the figure we really expect to achieve, although we do believe they will continue to rise in value! We have been offered over 34k so far though, which is a plus for all members with a 9,631 mile Automatic car I feel? I have always been fascinated by the DeLorian story since being much younger, and just felt I had to own one to add to my small collection of cars. I realise I'm being "a little cheeky" at £39,950.00, but honestly believe we will achieve 37k from this lovely example! A Director of Ford Motor Company was our last viewing! I will update you guys soon, but I'm in NO rush to sell her as I gain more interest driving this than an F12 Belinetta!!!! Mad.

Hi there.

I wouldn't call them issues?? We purchased new headlights etc, and fitted a new cooling fan at our workshop, as the previous owners left all the wires hanging from the engine bay! It's in all round great condition now, and looks amazing outside (when sunny!) It was at Burnham Market supercar show a few weeks ago, and gained more attention than 2 millions worth of McClaren P1!! Love it!
