Well some coloured fella stopped outside the pub in which I was drinking today. He was eyes all over the car (plus every other tom dick and harry as usual!), and keen to find out it's owner. When I finally revealed myself, he asked me if I wanted to sell it. I said no, and he replied with the question - "What do they go for these days?", so an off the cuff quote, I said about £18k. He then said that I shouldn't have told him that, as he would have been prepared to give me double that - £36k. I couldnt make out if he was kidding, or deadly serious, but I wasnt willing to take the gamble and end up looking stupid! He must have been kidding, surely! Anyway, I think if I had that kind of money to spend on one, this car looks a nice candidate. £17k change too! Good luck with the sale.

Ah....just dug out an old booklet from the Patrick Collection circa late 80s / early 90s and there was a LHD DeLorean listed in the collection at that time as well as their more well-known RHD.
