Some work done, some seemingly still to do - not sure on VIN or mileage. Car is located in Wymondham, Norfolk.

Just spotted this one too. On piston heads

Shame it’s missing the DMC badge and rear bezel though.

Certainly appears to be a bit of a mongrel. Early style grey wheels, but grooved non gas flap hood. Appears to have jet black interior carpet? Which is just plain wrong for any vin.

Would appear to be a recent import as well, DVLA registered September 2017

It would add an extra £10k to the price if it had those.

EDIT - 2700 miles, low mileage, that right there makes it £50k easy. As we all know, low mileage cars are the best there is, and have had all the needed upgrades done to them. ;)

Seems like pretty average cars are getting listed at £30-35k recently. Are any of them actually shifting at these prices?

This one sold pretty fast - viewtopic.php?f=56&t=5722 - was listed for £35k, but of course, no idea how much it actually sold for. Probably better than average though.

Other than that... no. Lots at high prices, and nothing seems to be actually selling at those prices.

Having looked at the MOT history, this one seems to be registered as it’s colour being “Black”
That would need to be altered for the new owner IMO.

And does anyone know why the passenger air duct is blanked off?

Some of the USA vendors sell blanking caps to get more airflow at the centre vents

It's listed as silver on the vehicle enquiry site, which is what should be shown on the v5c document.

Re the air duct, as Kenny said, dmch sell plugs to block off airflow to the doors in order to force more airflow out of the centre vents. I have them on my car, they're brilliant. http://store.delorean.com/p-10432-ac-ve ... -pair.aspx
