"You sit low, almost lying down. It provides a unique driving experience, with a rumbling smell behind your back when you accelerate. It's a little rough, like many low sports cars, but it's something you grow used to. It is likewise impossible to remain anonymous when in or around this creation."

Description

One of the legendary DeLorean cars is up for sale. It arrived in Sweden in 1989 and is now in the hands of its fifth owner. The current owner has had the car for six years. The car has rolled a few kilometres since 1981 and is in good operational order. There are faster sports cars, but few with the same charisma. Stainless steel body, gull-wing doors, turbine rims, and a low-speed profile are long-lasting features. Just what John De Lorean envisioned when he began work on the project in the late 1970s.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    In good condition but a review and service is recommended. New battery. The AC needs to be refilled. The spare wheel is damaged.

  • Interior condition

    Seats, carpets and upholstery in good working order. Stereo is out of order.

  • Exterior condition

    The body, glass, and other details are in good operating order. The shutter over the back window and engine compartment is damaged, but the current owner will receive a replacement from the insurance company and it will be in place when the car is sold.

  • General condition

    A car that is in good functioning order but needs some minor repairs. Perhaps the only DeLorean with an engine heater, the present owner, a northerner, had it fitted for driving in winter conditions, which worked flawlessly. Another intriguing aspect is that the availability of components is adequate for such a unique car. Manufactured in only 8,563 cars, but with considerably more planned, spare parts supply is relatively good. New cars are even being made from these, and production is expected to resume soon?

Facts about the model

Historien kring DeLorean är både innehållsrik och spännande. Huruvida allt som har sagts i historien är fakta eller rykten får väl visa sig med tiden eller så får vi aldrig riktigt veta.

Säkert är dock att John DeLoeran, tidigare toppchef inom GM, drog igång sitt livsprojekti mitten av 70-talet. Det skulle bli en sportbil - i rostfritt stål -, så blev det.

Giugiaros från ItalDesign gjorde designen, Lotus idé med en kryssram återanvändes och efter diverse tester med olika motorer blev det PRV-motorn från samarbetet Peugeot, Renault och Volvo som klämdes ner i bak. För att få bidrag och komma igång med tillverkningen spelade man ut olika möjliga länder/orter. Det landade i att Nord-Irland och Belfast ansågs bäst, ur ekonomisk synvinkel. Hela projektet där påbörjades i slutet av 70-talet men det var först i januari 1981 som de första bilarna levererades. Sagan blev kort och efter turbulenta turer och ekonomiska problem, där John DeLoren visade sig vara inblandad i narkotikaaffärer, allt för att rädda företaget, tog det slut. Bilar byggdes under ett par år och det finns årsmodeller från 1981-1983.

Den blev väl egentligen en kultbil från första stund beroende på dess historik, kändisar och inte minst tack vare filmtriologin Tillbaka till framtiden.
