Why don't you go and have a look at some other Deloreans first to see quality of car vs price and do some research before you jump in to buy.

A running car but needing some finishing mods (such as interior overhaul or minor bodywork finishing for example) might be a good compromise.

Where are you located, as there are owners that could show you around one.

^^ That's a great suggestion there from Nick.

Hi Nick, thanks!

I've been monitoring cars online and have seen a few in person for the past 4/5 months, found one in Ireland that was a runner apparently but needed full interior for £22500. Most others around 25k and up.

I'm based in Winchester, Hampshire!

There are a number of cars in and around that area, and also a monthly car meet on about 30 miles away near Fleet if you fancied making the trip up? It's on the last Sunday of the month, next meet is on the 29th September. https://www.facebook.com/whitelionclassiccarmeet/

Not me :) didn’t even bid in the end. Might have found a better opportunity.
