Just seen an ad for the latest partwork. Build a back to the future DeLorean. £8.99 an issue for 149 issues.

Hmmm.

Buy a real one for a mere snip at £35,000 🙂

You could hire an actual Delorean for about 1/10th of the price!

Lol even if it's one a week it'll take you three years of collecting pats!

My lad worked out you could buy a real one for similar money

I had to point out that the chances of the Flux Capacitor being in a usable condition for that price was pretty remote though.

Isn't there a chap with a warehouse somewhere that bought up all the bits when DeLorean went under.

I'm sure I saw a documentary which reckoned he'd build you a new one?

Does anyone know the story of the man behind DeLorean? I can't believe it hasn't been made into a Wolf of Wallstreet type biopic.

But yeah, as much as I'd like that model, the quick mental mathematics that I did made me choke on my corn flakes.

De Loreans story is pretty epic iirc.

The chap with the warehouse is out in the states, and yeah, they could build a fair few new ones and IIRC do, for 6 figure sums... so not much more than this model. No flux capacitors or flight though 🙁
