there was one on wheeler dealers a few weeks back, although in standard form, not kitted out like the one in the film.

also, I bought this t-shirt 2 weeks back, which woulda been cool if you was wearing it and had stopped !

Typical DeLorean, sat at the side of the road in a steaming mess

There were 6 made for the films, 1 caught on fire, 2 rotted into the ground, the film studio still has 2 and the last one is in a private collection somewhere.... could be that one?!

however.......... there is one for sale on fleabay usa for $450,000!!! I think this one is a bit special tho, took him 8 years to build and for that price it better take me back to the future!
