Price is a bit steep as you could get one in America for around half that.

I'm wearing my Delorean t shirt today (literally) so I feel I should comment:

Pity there are not better pics, you could do well with that much money in the US, but then you' still have a car in the US, with 30% VRT on top plus tax, duty and shipping, it may not be so much of a bad deal after all.

'Fibreglass shell'? The De Lorean had a stainless steel shell, didn't it?

JOhn Jones? The only De Lorean I knew of in Galway for a long time belonged to the Yourell hairdresser family.

Thats what I always thought, but I just found this on wiki:

"The DMC-12 featured gull-wing doors with a fiberglass "underbody", to which non-structural brushed stainless steel panels were affixed."

You learn something new every day...

i reckon you are right!looks to be in the US too! each pic in the add
id say is a different car aswell...35k is a crapload of money for one of
those cars,last December i walked onto a delorean dealer/specialist
showroom in SW Florida and had 6 cars for sale in various levels
of condition and the best car was close to 15-16000$ at a fairly
kind exchange rate at the time the car averaged out at
10-11euro.He had a black one in stock also!!
Still have his business card somewhere

Perhaps a few on here might give better value.

It would still work out cheaper then the Done deal one even with VRT....

Mind you, you could wait till next year until its 30 and 50 quid vrt :P

Dades

If I has a few quid (like, a lot) I'd definitely be buying a DeLorean and sitting on it.

And in it a bit too, maybe.

I count three in Ireland and 3 in Northern Ireland on that list.

the bloke in the showroom also said a "NEW" Dmc would cost i think
in the region of 25-27k,i didnt ask what a new car was , a complete
resto or an unused car

If I could win the lotto now I could start to build up my dream garage starting with one of these.

Seen lots of them, been in one and can't see the attraction of them but I guess each to their own

My first post on boards!

The advert looks a bit odd. Any DMC owner who was selling their car would know the engine is a 2.85 and the key problem area is rust on the chassis, so you'd always mention its condition or post photos in the advert. Also the car is an Oct 81 build as stated already.

Also VIN 6500 was a grey interior

A few years ago someone put photos on my car on ebay!

Owner of VIN 2969.....
